    Growing field peas in an aquaponics greenhouse

    Although our shade cloth can cool the greenhouse on hot days, it is still nice to have some complete shade inside. We have created some extra shade by just using some string and field peas.

  • Big fish, big food

    We just learned something new! Lately our big fish (they're approaching 300 grams now) weren't eating very well, but we couldn't find a cause. Until we ordered new fish food for them.

    Better be safe than sorry

    For a few weeks now, tower 3 has been having troubles. The water looked cloudy, the fish weren't eating, in fact, they were gasping for air. We measured everything we could, but couldn't find a cause.
