RE: Why My AQUAPONICS Didn't Work OFF-GRID - Homesteading and Alternative GROWING METHODS 📷 [PICTURES inside]

in #gardening7 years ago

I've been 'planning' my aquaponics for at least two years now. I thought I might try it out with something small. Maybe a small indoor setup with pet fish and some herbs. Then once I get the hang of it, increase in size. Thanks for sharing your experience.

My personal experience has been that larger systems are easier to maintain. My largest system has a 500 gallon fish tank, 200 gallon sump, 150 gallon radial flow filter, and a 4’ wide by 32’ long deep water culture bed. It uses goldfish as the growing engine and it produces 72 heads of lettuce per week.
