A place to discuss aquaponics

WHAT! you cant let manure from warm blooded animals enter your AP system

Cant remember the name (nor find it) but it reminds me of a very common tree, nothing special.


It looks almost exactly like the second picture yabbies posted, nothing like the first though.
If it that type of tree, it is a weed.
The type i am thinking of has succulant, shiny leaves that make good leaf whistles.



found it:

I think it may be that, if anyone within a few houses has one, then its almost guaranteed to be that.

First one I think is a gourd seed

second one is probably Brazilian Spinach

Never realised Purslane was so good - and this type's golden as well! Reckon it may go well in juices.

I read somewhere once about Ghandi, or maybe it was the Dhalai Lama, eating it and also making a drink out of it... I wasn't keen to try... Let us know how that works out for you there Matt!

Hopefully better than my cabbage smoothie!
