Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hi, it's the old fart again, but my dogs love me

I currently use three concrete wash troughs for growing veggies in dirt.

Question is are they safe to use for AP. They are pretty old (like me).

If they are ok that would be fantastic.

I must say this is a great site, "this is a great site". Thanks for the help so far it is greatly appreciated.


(Think I'm getting an IBC for fathers day) woohooo

Can see why not, I have one I will be using for water plants once the green house is finished. Cheers

The concrete tubs can affect your PH over time. maybe you could give them a cote of pond paint or something like that to seal them up. if it becomes an issue.

I've got some down here Bear if you want some

They will be safe then, thanks

Thanks again guys, noted the PH level I will certainly keep my eye on that.

I owe you guys a beer

OK Then

Gretch Country Gentleman with a bigsby??

No mate due to budget constraints (the missus) its the Gretch Electromatic with a Bigsby and a Marshal 50W

I alternate between that and a cherry les Paul Std. Epiphone, depending on what sort of a racket I feel like making at the time.

I dont understand old talk...

My mate grows strawberries to great success in concrete tubs
g string

Neither do I charlie so we should just leave them to it

Sorry guys Gretch are a fine instrument couldn't help but notice. I used to work at Maton Guitars lol
