Tomatoes Keep Coming

Yesterday I decided to replenish the nutrient so I connected a little hose to the circulation pump and pumped about four buckets of nutrient out of the float system which started at about a concentration of 27 and after carrying the buckets away and putting water in it went down to about 12. I added 2 1/2 cups of concentrate with the expectation of taking it up to about 25 and this morning it's at about 24 and maybe 4 inches deep.

The harvest from the past two days of tomatoes was 35 tomatoes weighing 114 ounces in total. This is a mix from the garden and the float system. So far we've harvested 49 tomatoes from the garden and 68 from the float system for a total of 393.625 ounces (24.6 pounds).
