Very nice set up. Hope all is going well for you. I truly view this as art. Art that is also functional and serves a true purpose. Keep up the good work dave. =)

That’s not used as a drain, but it lies on top of a drain, in order to keep the duckweed from spilling into the smaller drain. we dont’ cap the drains anyway, they stay open as a wier to maintain water level.

Are the boards floating, or supported? What kind of wood?, and do they make the water too dark? I’m sure the tannic acid would help keep pH down for hard water. Looks good, interesting use of pipes, you must have a cheap source, as I’m sure pond liner is much cheaper than pipes that size.

I saw a system on here once, on a TV segment, where a guy converted his pool into a fully functional ‘biodome’. I dunno what you’d call it, but it was made in case of nuclear war. The thing was close to yours, only he had chickens living in a cage above the fish, so that the fish would feed on the excrement, produce food in the water for the pant, which was feeding duckweed, which was in turn fed to the chickens. I dunno if you’ve seen it. Just thought I’d mention the chicken method.

Looks like you’ve cut open plastic corrugated pipes? Sewer pipes?

While I enjoy watching your videos, they would be a lot more helpful if there was a commentary explaining the “whats, whys and hows” of what we are looking at.

yes, thanks. plus it wedges above the water line so there is little contact. we love this as an alternative to poly-cyanate boards. holding up great!

the two modules, biogarden and incubator are on display at the OAC Activity Center. They’re mostly for education but are full on producing lettuces,. microgreens and fish. Fish have been moved indoors for winter. 80 square feet of growing area on BioGarden will produce 300+ pounds of lettuce per year, fyi. 210 gallons will raise 100 lbs fish per year.
