Aquaponics! The sustainable future of growing food!
And you can actually convert ammonia into those super essential nitrates that plants need. And so aquaponics is really cool because it hooks up to an aquarium, and then the nitrites are then funnels as plants, and they grow happily and healthily. And then by default, the tank where the fish are get cleaned. If anyone WANs to fact check me and correct my mistakes, I would appreciate that. I'm very new to this topic

Oh, my God. That makes me feel so good that you. Wow. First of all, I WANs to do this outside in my backyard, and I'm just wondering if this Aqua sprouts has an outside version because the one you showed is inside. I think I'm going to do research, and I will let you know what I find out. But I'm so excited about this. This is what I love about people learning about little teeny details

Debra the problem in doing it outside, which is what the big aquaponics farmers deal with, is pests. It's very difficult to protect from pests. So be careful what you wish for

And as far as what food, I said I'm going to also research how to keep pest away because I actually would really like an outdoor aquaponics set as well. I would like to somehow maybe connect like a koi pond to like a vegetable patch or something
