G'Day Folks. Had someone suggest I was getting incorrect readings from the water tests so I thought I'd so a test & share the results. Also included a bit of a general round up on how the cycling is proceeding, some information on midge flies & how I plant out the seedlings.
Hope you enjoy this quick update & your own aquaponics are booming.
Cheers all. 🐟 🌱🍅

I saw a aquaponics system in Hawaii on RU-vid were they used a bag hung in the fishtank of grounded up oystershells to help level the PH.

I have done the same & it only worked for a short while Sam. I was speaking to an aquaculture designer about it & he suggested it will work for a short while due to the amount of fine dust mixed in. Cheers. 👍

Rob Bob's Aquaponics & Backyard Farm Yeah, the last tp roll I ate was awfully dry! We (the horse, goats, and yours truly) are doing fine, thanks to some basic preparedness on our part. To those relatives who snickered at our “hoarding for the zombie apocalypse,” I say Nyah Nyah Nyah! Lol

Hello Rob, What do you recomend to que rid of midgefly larvae infestation? Been having that problem.
@RobsAquaponics
@RobsAquaponics 3 года назад
I have found that they normally die off by themselves. They appeared to come in waves in the old system. Started to have them build up in our new system & didn't realise until reading your comment that I don't see them in there anymore. Are you still having issues with them. Sorry it took so long to respond.

I don't worry about them myself Lewis. I find their numbers generally fall as the weather gets cooler. Whereabouts in the system are you mainly finding them?

Hi Lawrence. I'm being hammers with requests for help at the moment while folks are in lock down & am having trouble getting to everyone & also do what I need to do on a day to day basis.

Can midge flies be harmful towards my plants? Is it okay to eat?
@dertythegrower
@dertythegrower 4 года назад
yes. fine to eat, protein sure, but you should avoid for all reasons, heh. fish air pump is below 10 watt, powered by cheap solar panel, and prevents bugs in still stale water by oxygenating.. this also helps roots with more oxygen
@RobsAquaponics
@RobsAquaponics 4 года назад
@@dertythegrower I have them in the fish tank as well so poor oxygenation isn't really an a contributing factor. 👍

They're no real concern other than possibly taking up some of the nutrients for themselves. 👍

Add mosquito fish to your raft tanks - they'll eat the blood worms and break the midge cycle.
