We have completed our plantings this morning so a good time to start up this blog. I had no plans on doing a step by step of the build. However as this picture shows is our first hydroponic lettuce raft setup. Simon was very instrumental in the build, from planning and measuring to using tools on all the parts which includes the reservoir, the light stand and the lights. All built from basic components.

We should have some seedling in the next 4-7 days. Look for the update then.
Thank you,
