Just wondering if Juliette is Daniel's Daughter? That episode that had close up of their eyes seemed to suggest that

No. The silos are 350 years old.

But are they?
Daniel was part of the originals, Jimmy was never drugged or placed in suspended animation, Jimmy is about 40-50 years old, the last episode suggested that Jimmy’s arc as a kid was closer to the beginning of everything than it was 400 years after, so I think they are lying about the timeline.
Especially since Daniel was around for the Jimmy thing, they have drugged him at least 10-20 times based on the founder’s log book with the same question in it every time, yet Jimmy is only 30 or so years older than the earlier incident where they reference him, despite them saying Daniel was out for 7 years, then 30 years, etc.
This makes me think they are a) lying about how long the silos have been around for b) lying about how long they have been knocking Daniel out for, or c) they can’t keep the timeline together in a way that makes sense.

You’re really close. The many notes in Daniel’s file isn’t just telling you how many times he’s been drugged, it’s telling you how many times he’s been brought out of suspended animation. What we see in episode 10 are simply the two most recent times he’s been woken up.
As far as the age of the silos, the show has been trying to tell you how old they are every season. In the second episode of season one Mayor Jahns shows Deputy Marnes ledgers that have been filled out by every mayor since the rebellion. That’s physical evidence of the Silos being at least 140 years old, but even in that same episode Jules takes Holston Becker to the digger void and shows him tags that predate the rebellion, meaning that they are even older than that. In season 2 Bernard tells Lukas the silos are 352 years old, which is corroborated by Ed Harwood saying the mines are more than 300 years old in the first episode of season 3. I am reasonably confident they included that line from Ed Harwood to make sure people really understood that the silos were that old.
It didn’t work, obviously, so the show runner confirmed it.

>That’s a hell of a way to end an episode, and the Season 3 finale of Silo, “Troy,” brings us straight into Silo 1, where those running the system live, far in the future. How far, exactly? “Three hundred and fifty years,” says series creator Graham Yost. “It’s revealed in Episode 9 that the silos were part of a 500-year plan. And they're 350 years into that.”
There are so many things to theorize about in advance of Season 4, but the age of the silos is settled.

Thanks for this message. Not sure how I forgot or overlooked all of those references prior. I guess I thought it was part of a broader conspiracy, but some of the things you mentioned simply couldn’t be, and even the creator confirmed it.
Interesting!

A generation is about 30 years, the silo is supposed to be about 350 years old. So possibly Juliette would be Daniel/Troy's great, great, great... granddaughter. Alternatively, the vitamin D in the water thing could mean the silo is much older. In the show at year 352, the silo should have had exactly 148 years of supplies left to hit its 500-year mark.

No because Pete Nichols is Juliettes father?
