Hydroponic tomatoes Part 1 - Hydro Grow vs HTG vs Generic

[ESAMMEX]

wtf is wrong with the guy on the left?

[carlottam1]

Tomatoes grown outside taste great. How do hydroponic tomatoes taste?

[Cloud9er]

Awesome experiment; it's very well done. One thing I would have done differently is to grow more than one plant for each light just to be clearer about the results.

[loveweeddude420]

[Irishgirl41]

which light makes the most energy output?

@Irishgirl41

The Hydro Grow light had the best output for growth and energy ratio. If you watch part 2 of this video, you will see the actual weighing and performance conclusions of the lights.

Thanks! We are working on a lot more videos this new school year and some of the tests are going to be really out of this world - like a watermelon test with two 520 watt LED panels for a total of 1040 watts. We are just curious to see if it can be done and how good LEDs can actually work - it is not a test for a good return on energy used lol.

The cherry tomatoes are the F1 hybrid variety. They work great in hanging baskets as the tend to drape over. We did a lot of trimming on the plants to put the growth into flowering and fruiting. It really made a difference in quantity.
