The viability of store bought seedlings can vary tremendously. As you get more addicted, you will likely want to start your plants from seed. That way, if a particular plant does not do well, it is no big deal, you will have more to put in it's place. Then when you start saving seeds, those seeds will be from proven ap winners.

Thanks guys I hear ya I have just started to do that I put some seeds in trays the other day and used AP water I could not believe it two days and they were sprouted I can't believe the growth rate already eating micro greens

How's that?
Only put f-SLyr0WSUA in the YouTube brackets Rocket.

Awesome thank you

Great growth on the veg and looking very healthy. Water quality is looking good too hence the trout are hungry. All going well rod

Built the feed up to 3tablespoons a day now one and a half in the morning and again at night
There's a lot more solids in tank so I'm taking that out so I don't get ammonia to high and have added worms

Plants are going well and tasting awesome the Bok Choi are over the big size i thought
they would be bitter but they taste great

Nice growth rod. Those peas are looking good. Will be getting peas very soon.

Thanks Ben I must say I'm so impressed with aquaponics.
If this is the results in winter I can't wait for spring and summer.
Having so much fun.

I got my best growth through last winter here.
Bloody big ants down that way I see.
Looking good.

I had a massive variety of Kale in my AP over spring/summer that you could try. 'madeley kale' - Also this purple variety of cauliflower -
