I had planted 3 types of lettuce in this box planter this time last week. It looks like the Arugala is coming up now.

Here you can see the baby arugalas better. It looks like they are growing towards the grow light I have running for that shelf.

Water overflowed the planters and poured down into the lid of this tote

I had turned on my new irrigation system, and… er… uhm… left it on. You can see where I flooded all the pots to over flowing. Luckily for the plants, they all overflowed. Sucks for me, as they all over flowed. I really need to put these on a timer or otherwise automating it.
