How do you start your water off with 0 E.C. so I know what i'm putting in it versus the pre-existing ions in the water before adding any nutrients? I'm not sure if i'm asking this question correctly. ie. I fill a tub with my home tap water. I let it sit for 24hr to remove chloride & etc. pH is 5.5. Would there be any ions already in this water?
I've seen some of your videos and wanted to pick your brain. Would you recommend any books that would teach aquaponics for small to large scale systems? I have bought books on subjects before that does have the information required no matter how much you might spend. This is why I ask for your help. By the way, if you think using a system that is not going to make money for you in return is not worth it, may I try to broaden your view a little? GMO's and organic is better for you and if a family eats mostly vegetables and wants to make sure they have good produce raised right, all year long, then it is an investment in well being. Then also if they raise their own food and the grocery bill is diminished, it is like making money. I heard one homesteader diminished theirs, I think it was about 3 years, down to 60% of what they use to pay. Better health? Less money for food? All the incentive needed. Any way I remember you saying something like an aquaponics system is not worth it unless it turns a buck, in one of your videos. I hope with what I mentioned might broaden your view a little in that area. I hope to hear from you soon on those books. May the Lord Jesus Bless His.
Interesting. very interesting. So someone could run two separate green houses one for hydroponics and the other for aquaponics and then determine which plants suits each other. idk that's what I'm thinking.
Thank for this important video for us and i think it has inspired most of us. However, is this possible for many spawns like 40.000 spawns ? I am improving my fish farming business, but facing challenges on how I can produce as many spawns as possible. What do I need more?
Love this !!!!! This is something I would do, but I would go vertical to fully save and take advantage of space. Can you do this with different types of fish in the vats, like koi, catfish, tilapia
hello newbie here. im about to start my first aquaponics. let's just say I'm going to use this system. is it okay if i don't add any filter ? to be precise mechanical filter to remove fish poo ?.. will the grow media and the plants filter those ?
in the video 3 minutes and 23 seconds you have said that the temperature best for tilapia spawning is 80 so that is in degree Celsius or degree Fahrenheit?
Wait a minute - I thought I was watching a wrong video - instead of what plant to grow - he started with what not to grow. Anyway great video. Keep it up 👍
The reason for drain to waste is different. You try to feed as controlled as possible, to drain next to no water / nutrients. This level of control is not achievable for home growers. The large scale productions use it to limit the risk of contermination and increase control over the nutrients mix.
