Hi all
I have been having a good result with my aquaponics.
however the trout we had, have not been survived the 40 degree temps they have died but we put them in the freezer to feed to the other fish (which are Baramundy) when they get bigger.
we are currently growing lettuces, tomatoes, corn, celery, onions, chives, bazel some of which has not appreciated this heat wave but they are still all surving.
For those who don't know what aquaphonics is it is where you have a tank with fish in it and you pump the water up to the growbeds that have the plants in and the plants filter the water and gravity feeds the water back into the fish clean & air rated the plants grow quicker and without sprays or pestisides. They are total organicly grown because any type of spray will kill the fish.
The lettuces will be ready to harvest in 4 weeks. herbs are ready in the same time.
For any one who wants to come and see our garden or would like more information contact
