I personally like the weathgrass tray grow on the stacks, they are using soil in the net pot....water looks clean!
They seem to have a decent filtration mechanism but I think it looks overpowered on areation, look the video and you can see a gayser coming up from some fish tank.
Most of the plants in the video do not look particularly good, potassium deficiency on basil, cuccurbit not looking great either, root/stem rot and dumping off desease, many plants looks stretched and yellowing leaf is abundant.
I think the video has beeen taken when it was still a young system, you can obviously see the DWC raft have not been drilled yet.

It looks like they've got their act together a bit now.... but the startup video was frankly just plain embarassing... I can't understand why they even posted it...

They didn't post it on the website at least, I've found it around and I tought it might have help to see what they are up to, probably they would not like it and I'm sorry if this will not look good on the portfolio, I also pointed out that it was just been set up and of course we all know the painfull stages of a stabilisation process.
It seems they have the horticultural experience judging by the rest of the facility.
I only hope they would have been here among us to share some personal experience.

From more research and videos;
1)they do plant tissue analysis to correct the nutrient deficiency
2) they are member of "THE AQUAPONIC ASSOCIATION"
3)They are student of Friendly AP
