Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Excellent
Put my name on the down graded green growbed, ten bags of hydrotron and a pipe kit
Are you at work over the weekend ? I'll give you a call then.
Thank-you Faye .

Cheers

Why was this bed downgraded

Looks good to me ,

Thanks Faye

There's a little lump down one end I think on the side of that one.. It would probably be covered when it's full of media, but It's just one of those things that makes it hard to return to our manufacturer because it's so minor, yet some customers wouldn't like it..

Just looking after you Matthew

Cool, I just saw Faye on the BYAP tv advert during greenfingers.

They were setting up a $60K garden at a Tuart Hill school with an aquaponic system in there too. My daughter used to go to that school. Very cool.

It would be a lovely day to be home making jam, but we are curently waiting for a break in the weather to load up and do a system installation
It was obviously a good idea to be closed on Mondays for winter trading, as this is what we arrived to this morning. Fortunately there was no damage but lots of mess, I guess I know what tomorrow will bring, lots of sweeping, I guess.
A panel in the fence blew out, on the positive side it is now a gateway
The wind has slowed now we are having rain.

Well if it doesn't rain it pours. Is that right? Last week it was pouring and this week we had rain, but the orders stil have to go out. And that's just what they did before the end of the financial year. This large system is off to Wyndham in the far north of Western Australia and the other one is going further to Christmas Island, what an idyllic location. Bet it is warmer in winter than here. At least today the sun was shining when we had the photographer visit from the Cockburn Gazette. It was nice fishing weather, though a little chilly.

Nat just harvested all the water chestnuts that had died down and it amounts to more than 1kg. Just need to store them over winter and replant in the warmer months. I suppose we could peel some and throw them in to a stirfry.

Nice harvest guys. Where did you have them growing?

These were in pots though some did well in one if the beds growing in hydroton and were harvested a few weeks ago.

What a great morning. I finally got time to fly to Perth and had a wonderfully visit to the BYAP Shop.

Thankyou Joel for your time showing me around, it was amazing.

A funny thing happened yesterday when I went to water some plants with a worm tea solution, it appeared that the watering can spot had blocked up. Now normally if leaves get caught in there you still get a trickle coming out. Not this time. I removed the rose and found nothing, and then I looked down the spout to the watering can lol, look who was looking back at me! I laughed out loud and then grabbed the camera, of course.

haha cheeky frog

Thats terrible Hoeve, but I did have a chuckle to myself

Well another special visitor came to see us at the shop late this afternoon, and he was so soo cute I said he could come and live with us, in the natural bush part of the block, though I know Brad Pigg would love to play with him and he could live in the barn.


It is a baby boy brush tailed possum, lucky to survive thanks to the love and patience of a very caring carer.
