<p> I just want to get a clear answer on If I just stick my watering can into a pond and use that water it will be a good enough source of nitrogen to grow vegetables? or will I need to use a supplement fertilizer also. or vacuum up the fish waste and use that?</p>

<p>Depends on how rich the pond water is in nutrients. If there are lots of plants growing in an AP system there might not be much excess nutrients in the water to be using the system water in the garden and the solid waste would be of more benefit to the garden, but if the system is not in perfect balance and there are excess nutrients, then using the water on the garden will be effective but if you have solid waste collecting anywhere in your fish tank then you want to get that out and you…</p>

<p>Kinda off topic here but is anyone interested in making their own fish emulsion? Thanks to Raychel (this site) turning me onto brewing better compost teas, this year I have expanded my collection rout and one new addition is fish scrap to make my own FE ferts. The villagers seem not to get tired of teasing me about collecting "scraps/ waste" giving me a new nick name.."Professor Garbage". I guess its better than what the kids call me, " Poopoo man".</p>

<p>@ TC: I think most dogs can be trained to guard chicken but should be raised with chicken as a puppy, otherwise they will rely on instinct. I had to get rid of my two mole hunters coz they tunneled into my chick run and killed thirty odd chicks. Now I use geese and one dog to guard my flocks. The roosters have been trained to attack snakes, mice and moles.The geese squawk and attack anyone or thing that doesn't belong and the dog mainly keeps the cats and ghosts away (cowers at sight of snakes). I produce about a hundred to one fifty chicks every two weeks with no casualties from vermin for past two years. My previous dog, back in Seattle was wonderful at guarding "his" rabbits. I believe dogs with their own jobs are less likely to have psychological problems. Our farm dogs knew the difference between what is ours and what invaders were.</p> Ok, so you are saying when I…tag:aquaponicgardening.ning.com,2012-05-22:4778851:Comment:3383712012-05-22T11:56:44.039ZTCLynxhttps://aquaponicgardening.ning.com/profile/TCLynx
