sista you are right

sooooooooooo right

i would love to do more experments with aquaponics

works a treat

alas i broke the fish tank when we moved to town

 

check dis link aquaponics

but now we are really getting into it

hydro ponics and fish tanks

yes

these two systems will work together in perfict sincronisity

each supporting the other so less work for you and cheeper

gota be a winner

well worth susing out

Groovy. Run to waste is what I thought it might be classed as, since any drainage is not reused.

Not that I have much waste water. At the moment, my plants are balanced just nicely that there is only a few drops that come outta the bottom of the pots.

 

I don't have my own worm farm set up yet, but I do have access to fresh worm wee as I need it. I am composting a bit at the moment, but the worm population is still small. Getting there tho.

 

I have read about aquaponics and would really love to give THAT a try.

I would love to have the room to set up a lil aquaponic vegie patch, but that's a bit of a pipe dream at the moment.

 

Thanks for that link again too freddy. I think I have seen that site before in a previous discussion bout the boards.

 

Oh, back to the plants n watering.

The current watering schedule is 100mL per plant every day.

After having a look at my local tide charts for the past week or so, it seems that I have been watering them at just the right time too! That's a lil spinny. But I guess, nature has a way of making things happen whether you plan it to or not!

 

Going to change my tank water in the next couple of days and save it and use it to make up a nute feed. I know plants love it.

Yeps. I have always tended to let my 'intuition' guide me when I garden.

 

My dad was very much the same, and his mum.

harvest times

 

on the rising tide the sap is bitter and fulla minerals for cell production

on the falling tide the sap is sweet and fulla sugars for energy

personal taste is big ting

i use cannabis for relief from chronic pain

so i am trying to enhance spacific pain killing qualities of cannabis when i harvest and cure

seen

so for I

harvest is best at high tide, just before or just after the full moon or new moon

Great post Radic...I have used the moon planting guide for my vegie garden for years, very interested in the tidal theory, makes perfect sense when you think about it!

[chuffer]

cant say this is my thing. After all a bucket of water still weighs the same no matter where the tide is
