Hydoponics in a cold house

The catgrass is almost ready for the 3 kitties to consume. They can see it growing in the baby greenhouse. So, now I'm going to try and grow lettuce...a cool season crop...in a borrowed aeroponic system. The aerogarden baths the roots with water from the top of the root system still letting them get plenty of oxygen. It will be an interesting experiment. My only problem?!?!?!? Can I find a place where the cats will take little interest in them and warm enough to grow lettuce. The kitchen should be the best place for this experiment, but the temp drops down to 50 at night. It should not be too bad for the lettuce...we shall see.

Just Returned from Local Industry Show

During the last 4 days, my co-workers and I have been attending workshops on a WIDE variety of topics. Merchandising, color trends, people trends, chickens, insects(both inside and out), perennials, annuals, pesticides for old and new varieties of trees, lawns, and insects. Enough topics to make your eyes glaze over. So, as you can see, we are full of knowledge, so that we can serve you better this coming year. And I am also glad to be out from under the unnatural lights. It really disconnects me from the great outdoors...unnatural light, recirculated air, dark rooms, something you do not usually worry about when you are out in the garden.
