Over the metformin 1000 mg side effects past couple of months I have been contacted by several local people interested in UHGU. I figured the time has come to start a meetup group and get this distributed urban agriculture thing going. You can find our group by clicking the logo in the sidebar. I would encourage other UHGU...

With all metformin hydrochloride 500 mg of the grows we have going here in H-town, I have been spending countless hours crying about the high cost of just the few basic nutrients we use in our systems. Its a pretty simple recipe that starts with a grow, bloom, or production dry fertilizer. Then you add a Calcium Magnesium...

I had these three pictures for Charles hanging out on my phone. Thought I’d do a really quick post. The first picture is a mini-cropper that Charles set up for his parents to use as a winter nursery to get an early start. The second is 6 lbs of juliet tomatoes that where harvested out of...

After having grown with the Hydro Grow LED Penetrator 345 for several months now I wanted to provide my impressions on this great grow-light and what it is capable of. From the performance of the test light that we have used it is clear that this light is designed with light intensity for...

In the back of my mind I’ve considered installing a forum for a long time. I have found some good WP integrations for other sites that I work on so it wouldn’t be all that hard to put one in. I am more concerned with the level of participation. Many people seem to not like the...

After selling a couple Super Croppers on ebay and seeing over 10% of the price go to sellers fees we have decided to launch an online store for Super Croppers and related items. Building greenhouses, purchasing nutrients, lights and seeds can get quite expensive so we have decided to use the...

Sorry for the site down time over the last couple of days. Godaddy “upgraded” my wordpress installation. Apparently when godaddy says “upgrade” they mean “delete all the files in your wordpress core”. Anyways I’ll be trying to figure out all the rest...

I love this…Although I wonder how the garden fares through winter. [yahoo 21266618]

Do you want to learn how to build our systems? Do you grow vegetables hydroponically indoors or out? Or maybe you want to learn? If so UHGU can provide lots of help/advice as well as plans to build any of the systems you have seen us growing with. After a year and a half of experimentation and...

I stumbled across this little jewel today when cruising the web. Not only do I think it is a great idea for a houseplant but where I think the hydroponic systems of tomorrow should be aiming. Can you imagine a power-grower with integrated nutrient monitoring? A little digital readout...

In our new season UHGU is aiming to expand upon the success of our initial experimentation and the beginnings of developing proven methods of production. Since my trial version of Dreamweaver CS4 expired and my photoshop 7.0 obsoleted when I upgraded to OSX 10.6, the UHGU site wasn’t...

…Urban Hydroponic Growers Union (UHGU) was founded in January 2009 by Charles and Zach with the goal of bringing indoor hydroponic plant culture out of the shadows. Many urbanites are frustrated with the limitations of seasonal porch gardening. Many of us would like to “go back to...
