explodinggirl:photojmoss:Charles Hendrix showed me around his Aquaponics greenhouse the other day. Aquaponics is a growing process in which Tilapia (and, less so, goldfish and koi) provide nutrients for the plants (which are primarily lettuces and others which thrive with constantly wet roots) and the plant beds help filter the water. Does anyone close to mid mo have an aquaponic setup, or could teach me about aquaponics first hand? I am so intrigued but just don’t know where to start.I think first starting with a small hydroponic setup would be easiest, and then proceed to full on aquaponics. You might see if you can visit your nearest hydro shop, they’re usually pretty friendly and helpful. -- source link
