tropicalhomestead:Aquaponics update 8.26.2017The rain and heat are keeping the tank a little green, but the pH is doing okay with no ammonia registering. The fish are still eating vigorously. More babies, too. I’m beginning to worry about overcrowding.Greeted by a beautiful eggplant blossom in the northeast grow bed this morning.I started using a weekly 9-3-6 foliar nutrient spray on the cucumbers in the northwest bed - I’m really excited about how they’re growing, with no hint of wilt. :-)Of the ten strawberries planted in the southeast grow bed, only 2 toughed it through the summer, but one is sending out runners, so I’m hopeful for next season. I also planted a few seeds from the watermelon my dad brought back from Water Valley Mississippi (sal-ute!). I’d love to face the dilemma of how to handle a watermelon in the grow bed if it actually grew.The southwest grow bed and is still a mess, basil and Everglades tomatoes fallin’ all over the place. Let me know if you need some basil seeds…. -- source link
