We have been selling our produce to our neighborhood on Tuesday, Thursday afternoons, and Saturday mornings. We give our neighbors an alternative to the over priced, poor quality produce that is sold in the local grocery stores.

    What small water creature would be good to eat all the poopie slime from the bottom of my water raft bed?

    The water in my wicking beds smells bad.  I placed sand in the bottom to the height of the overflow.  Therefore the top soil is in contact with the water reservoir.  Should I have placed more sand in the bottom?
