Roma Tomatoes - 3/14/2012

Nothing too exciting except these things will not stop growing upward.  They are way taller than any Roma tomatoes I have grown in the ground.  Blooms are starting to pop up everywhere.  The first blooms that appeared did not produce any fruit.  We will see what these blooms do.  Today is the second week in the "bloom" phase of the nutrient solution.  Digital meters are now being used in the system.  My pH was at 5.8 and the ppm are at 1480.  That is right on according to the General Hydroponics website.

On top of everything else I also added another light.  This one has a 23W 2700K CFL bulb.  Plant really took off when it was added.  Next time I start a tomato plant I will be using 2 of the 6500k and 2 of the 2700K.
