The student above ground barra system is doing well - I put a tomato in his system right at the start and thought it would not do well - checked today and it has small fruits growing!

This system has been doing well, even tho his stocking rate is a bit high for the number of beds he has (not a problem now, but might be as the fish increase in size!

Just so you know guys that strawberry was stolen like one day after that pic was taken... But not to worry i have 5 more on the way. As well as some more flowers :D .. they are having flower sex tomorrow.. lol

The basil you see there in no longer there as the strawberry's took over and smothered the growing basil, i replanted them in the system -- they seem to be ok...

I should post a pic of what my system looks like now ... I will take a pic tomorrow :D

shocking enough it has been very cool here - but better than the overly humid and stinking hot which will soon be here again :(

Tell me about it AM! Yesterday we were near the century mark, not likely for the weather to break for at least a week. At this rate we will totally browned out before the weekend. (Wind is S SE at 15-20mph, temp in mid 90's, and humidity is low.)

Wheelie bin and IBC systems looking great! Kudos to you and the kiddoes!

But ssshhhhh don't let anyone know i have strawberry's as someone might come along and steal them -- like last time :(

Go the Fish poo...CC

How many barra in that tank btw, L ast time I was up there wasnt there around 40 - 50??

Also have you testing nitrites just to see what nutrients you have in the system...?

AM, I do wonder in all the AP systems, what is a magic number for crops to grow well just like in your systems...?
