Looking great AP - what's that water spinach taste like.

Les - I was out at the markets last weekend and saw the tanks. Are you talking without a bottom, or with one?

dont mean to make you jealous scottie.

Thanks for the info Les on the garden beds

Steve, the one pump in sump is great. The water distribution via gravity works fine.

Paul the water spinach tastes like "chicken" ......No just kidding it tastes milder than silver beat and has a typical "asian greens taste"

:) No worries, it's kinda motivating too - makes me aim a little higher.

By the way, I think it's time you renamed your topic - "Aussieponic Proposed System" is a little misleading now.

Maybe: Aussieponic's way-cool system that makes everyone jealous! :)

AP,

Your system looks great but as I have previously posted, the Kang Kong root system will take over the GB. I still let mine grow, and it does great, but I cannot plant anything else into that GB, I even needed to prune it because it took root in the soil.

cheers
Derek
