Aquaponics : Reaching 2017....
Went for a breakaway and let the systems run without supervision for two days, so far so good.. Still looks like a tiny farm and not a jungle as before... Yes, we are reaching the end of 2016... Let's pray for peace ahead.... Peace in mind... Peace! In Mandarin, 祝您平安!

Aquaponics : Getting Crowded From This Point of View

Aquaponics : How Funny...
Based on the observation on the fruits and flowers, we have a thought that those plants in growbed Two are actually... Pumpkins. .. And not the winter gourds. If so, we are currently having four 🎃 growing in the main system. Let's observe for few more weeks.

Aquaponics : Growbed One
The French Beans are in production. Anyway, not as frequent maybe we should plant more.. Let's double it up in the coming season.
Good to see that, cherry tomato is leaning on them for support. It should be in production in two weeks.

Aquaponics : Oh.. Pumpkin.. Pumpkins @Growbed Four
Aquaponics : Growbed Three
Looks like the Mulberry is not gonna make it after the second branch got trimmed off.
The Cucumber is flowering... But looks like it is too old.

Aquaponics : The Chapperlang Growbed Seven
Have moved the sword bean to this growbed during replacement of growbed eight. We might just pull this sword bean in coming weeks as it is not growing as expected. The rest will be lettuce, Okra, cabbage and cherry tomatoes.
Aquaponics : Growbed Nine
Some says it is a good idea to place some bigger rocks in the growbed; however, from what we have observed these rocks are actually the culprit of siphon clogging. In future, we might consider to place an outer 4-inch pipe for flexibility of moving the leca in the bottom of growbed.

Aquaponics : Growbed Eight and Nine
Alright. Today we gonna swap the small growbed eight to the standard size blue tune we have extra.
More leca are needed for sure. Lucky enough got them from a friend here.
Here is the extra blue tube we get from the previous gutter system.
The affnan's siphon.. Make sure you get the vent cap with smaller holes as recently we found that the leca we bought have the mixture of smaller and normal size in it. The bigger holes will create additional task for your operation in the long run. Trust us on this. 😅
Mount it up and ready to go.
Alright. Mission accomplished.

Aquaponics : Gutter System
Yes! still having the four gutters eating dust... Maybe we gonna rebuild them, imitating NFT, in one or two months... ; however, have no idea how far it will go... No long term plan as of now.
Guess!!! what is on my mind? Thinking of replacing the growbed eight to the bigger blue tube.
My favorite view on the roof..
