diy aquaponics systems
Aquaponics is amazing....after sowing several dozen Romaine lettuce seeds of various varieties. I was surprised to find that after 3 days most of the seeds had sprouted. This is truly amazing considering that normal germination for these seeds type is 7-10 days. I also did the same with a pack of Collard Green seeds and unexpectedly these also sprouted in 3 days while normal germination is 10-21 days. I have included a few photos to show the new babies.
You can see the new lettuce sprouts next to the new Bell Pepper plants in the pic above.
A closer view, Im going to have to cull a few of these as they get bigger.
And yet more....
Here is a shot of the collard sprouts.
I also had a Basil harvest this past weekend due to the fact that the plants were starting to get lengthy and falling over. I cut these back and dried the leaves. I still have quite a few younger plants for fresh cut leaves when needed.
Next post to follow will provide an overview the new solar hot water panel I put together to heat the fish tank water.
