Yeah, it took a couple years since that tree blocks out most of the sun,
but now there is a constant supply of them!
Thanks for the update on your garden. Things like you say are growing like
crazy. Wish you the best with it & hope you get lots of home grown
vegetables.
Bro! You never ask a person living in California why they are in their swim
suite…. It’s a requirement here and you know that! Haha nice looking
plants man! Aloha
Poo is definitely a great fertilizer. I didn’t show it on the video, but
one of the leaves on the tomato plant is about the size of Rosie
O’Donnell’s HEAD! It’s huge. My mother-in-law saw it and couldn’t believe
it was part of the tomato plant.
I could but I won’t. Not only does my house border a high school, but I had
cops come to my next door neighbors house recently. I don’t need them
snooping around my yard because of some weed plants. I will stick to fruits
and vegetables to feed my family.
Let me know when you do. I’d love to see a video of it. That’s the beauty
with aquaponics is that you can set it up anywhere. I have friends who have
one inside their house, using only a small fish tank, a grow light, and
some tupperware containers to grow some vegetables indoors.
Thanks Joe! I love watching it too! My dad wants me to build him one, and
when I do, I will film the entire process so that you guys can see how to
make one yourself. I think Pam would love to have something like this in
the Case backyard!
The fish tank plants are purely decorative (all plastic). I did it for a
little scenery for the fish, as well as to add places to hide for any
smaller fish or babies that may eventually be born in there. The reason why
I didn’t add real plants to the water is because they would suck up some of
the nutrients which I would prefer get sent directly to the garden overhead.

You can use ANY fish, as long as it’s freshwater. I have seem systems with
only GUPPIES in it.

LOL – Touché! I meant to ask, “Why are you wearing a BIKINI??!!” Once you
have a daughter, I’m sure you would agree with my statement as well! Aloha!

I like all of your videos man. Usually if I find a person interesting, I
want to hear about everything they are interested in.

Most people I have watched use goldfish/coy in the fish tank part, could
you use catfish if the tank is big enough

Aquaponics is so cool. Once I have my own place where I can set something
like this up, I’m totally doing it.

Thanks Wallace. I am thinking about adding another 1-2 grow beds so that I
have more room to grow other things!
