EBB+and+FLOW

Great Job! The Ebb and Flow is looking great, and it's thanks to you! Don't forget to check the EC (it looks like pS on the meter) as well as pH,and to record it. You can either write it down in the book for the system, or type it into the computer log. Here is the link: greenhouse log I let you guys do this, not me, so if you forget to type it in, then we don't have data :( After you have finished with water testing you have some choices available to you: Thanks for all your help!! =Info about the plants in the Ebb and Flow= chives basil cilantro dill lemon balm rosemary
 * scrub around the baskets with sponges from the silver bucket
 * spray a little bit of hydrogen peroxide on the clay pebbles to clean off aphids and help the roots
 * make labels for the Mountain Mint and Genovese Basil plants by getting a white sticky label and sticking it near the plants, on the white basin
 * cut off dead, brown, or dry leaves. Put the leaves into the compost
 * For the basil plants, you can pinch the tiny inner leaves on the new shoots.
 * If there are a lot of aphids, bring the basket to the sink and rinse off the plants
 * transplant herb seedlings to nursery if there are holes
 * ask if you can harvest. If yes, then rinse off all the aphids and place herbs in bowls/plates for tables
 * look to see if the seedlings at the seeding bench need water (if you put your pinky in and your nail is covered in water, then there is already enough in the tray- let's not over water!)
 * arrange the plants so that the plants are next to the ones that look like them
 * ask if you can plant seeds or get the tray ready for another class
 * look through the seed catalogue and fill out an order form
 * check on the plants that are in the ladybug hut. Do you they need water? Are there still aphids on the plants?
 * look to see if there are trays to scrub with a little hydrogen peroxide and a scrubby sponge
 * sweep under the Ebb and Flow (or anywhere:)
