A place to discuss aquaponics

After seeing this thread last year i ordered some kang kong seeds from china.. but then i found out it;s illegal in texas so i killed the couple of plants I sprouted.

Kangkong is amazing! Its areal solution to food problems. I get it live at the Chinese market.

If you lived on or near a lake or water way it's probably best to avoid growing it. However, bird net keeps it contained.

My growbed liners gave up the ghost. The fire ants ate thousands of holes in it. My grow bed was replaced with a tiny 9 foot (2.743 meter) round tank.

I have been busy Building a lifestyle with permaculture and so fish because to much responsibility. I switched over to duckaponics and now fully BioPonics opperation. All those nasty weeds get a anaerobic week to months of break down time in a pickle barrel the added to the system as needed. It has eliminated input expenses completely!

nice to see you are still in the hobby and growing.

Thanks for the update.

Hum, I'm not seeing the images in your post and when I paste the url into my browser, both seem to be showing the same picture of what I guess is the grow bed.

Nice to hear about how you are growing now.

Glad to see you're still at it in one form or another .

I get the same as TCL on those pics.
