Many Links From the Upper Two Windows Will Display in This One.
In this manner you can look up information sequentially without loosing your place.

We have Many Photos. But, since they take so long to "download", we set up a method that allows you to keep working, while Your Selected Photo loads into the upper right window. Look for the The Title of the

This Form Page is here to help you create Growth Environments for your favorite plants. You can design hydroponic formulations, track your experimental results, keep records, and even do reports for school.

It provides an Organized, Systematic way to gather information and construct specialized environments for your growth experiments.

The Idea is, to use the information entered in this form, to create a project progress file, that you can print or save to your hard drive. The report should cover all aspects of the plants growth process. ( So, if there is something that I missed, that should be included, E-mail Me. )

Click on Hydroponic Formula Calculation Form -Now ! *** To Start Guided Tour ***

Here are boxes for you to enter Your Name and project ID tag. The text will scroll to the left, if the box isn't big enough. Go Ahead! Click on the "Name box" and ... ( Today, this is only for practice. )

  1. Enter a Name.
  2. Next, Press the Tab Key.
  3. Now, Type an identification name or number for your project.
  4. Press the Tab Key again.
  5. If this formula is for a single crop; Click the Single box.

How and where, you use this formula, makes a big difference.

  • Select the Growth Method You are planning to use.
Now, Scroll the Form Window Down, and Select ...
  • "Where You Will Be Using The Formula".

If, you are growing Outdoors, or are using Natural light;

  • Enter Your Seed Zone.
We need to adjust for rain fall and cloudy days.

Your "Total Salt Concentration" and "Ph", effect the growth of plants, as much, if not more so, as any other feature of the plants environment.

Each Species of Plant, has its own Optimum Values !

This makes it nearly impossible, to grow a large variety of different plants in a single hydroponic formulation.

You will find groups of plants, that will do well together, in a properly designed formula. However, the members of the group may change, depending on other environmental factors.

Unless you can start your own research station, here is where it is good to "check out" what others have done. Here is where one of the uses of the Project Notes Clip Board, enters the picture.

You can "Copy & Paste" to the clip board, while surfing the Web. Then, when you have finished, you can copy the clip board, and then paste the contents into your word processing program.

( When this Form Page is finished, the program will include the contents of the clip board in the report that it generates. )

Time for a little game.

You may have noticed that you can highlight blocks of text on a Web Page like you can in your word processing program.

  • Click Here then ...
  • Mark a paragraph on this page.

Position the cursor at the beginning of the text, that you want to mark. Hold down the left mouse button and move the cursor to the end of the block. Then, release the mouse button.

  • Press the Ctrl + C keys.
  • Move the cursor to the Clip Board area, and click the left mouse button.
  • Press the Ctrl + V keys.

After clicking in the Clip Board window, you can add or change the text as you like. ( Play Time ! )

Anywhere you can type information on a Web Page, you can also "Paste". Don't try to format the text in the Clip Board window. ( Except for Fun ! )

It will "Unwrap" to fit your new margins, when it is transferred into your word processor, or printed in the computer generated report.

Be sure to note the location, from where you copied the information. You may want to go back for more information, or may want to quote your references, if you are writing a report.


Anything that you enter can be changed without resetting the whole form.
