<p>Have you tried growing carrots or other long root vegetables in Aquaponics? </p>
<p>Whenever I tried to grow them, even in media beds filled with the lighter media such as Hydroton, I would get "crocked carrots" or "crocked diakon / radish -mooli". I could use the leaves of the diakon & radish-mooli but the tops of carrots were pretty much useless other than compost. Peeling such crocked vegetables was a real pain.</p>

<p>Whenever I tried to grow them, even in media beds filled with the lighter media such as Hydroton, I would get "crocked carrots" or "crocked diakon / radish -mooli". I could use the leaves of the diakon & radish-mooli but the tops of carrots were pretty much useless other than compost. Peeling such crocked vegetables was a real pain.</p>
<p>We tried setting up wicking beds. Yes they produced better shapes but you know, I wanted re-circulation of the water, after all, I was really interested in expanding what I could grow in my Aquaponics system. So I set off on a search to be able to grow carrots, diakon, radish-mooli and other such root vegetables and also be able to use a soil base and incorporate all this into Aquaponics.</p>
<p class="first-para"><span>We are always adding different growing methods and researching new and better ways to utilize our Aquaponics knowledge so as to increase the range of what we can grow. I wanted to be able to use some soil in Aquaponics and be able to grow root vegetables while re-circulating the water. In future posts, I will highlight some of our methods and components as to one step we have taken towards this. Here I am sharing a article by my good friend and fellow Aquapon David Hart.</span></p>
<p><span>Enjoy!</span></p>
