Building Outdoor Aquaponic

July 10th, 2012 § 0 comments § permalink

Small aquaponic indoor is fun and building big one outdoor is even better. These system is of two 500L fish tanks at the bottom and two 300L growing bed on top giving about 2 square meters growing space and capacity for about 50+ fishes. I am still trying to figure out how to get Tilapia in Shanghai but for now, carps will do. 😉

"odor of oregano" progress week 1 (20120613)

June 14th, 2012 § 0 comments § permalink

instead of traditional seedling from seeds, we are trying to grow roots in water and coconut peat bases from fresh oregano plant (stems with leaves). after 1 week, more than 50% oregano has grown its own roots. finding: – oregano grows taller with more leaves in coconut peat than in water,but with less and smaller roots – in the same water base, oregano grows more and roots with lightening compares to those under sunlight.
