these trays worked well but to retain depth i would build some type of frame

the frame can be simple

morning werner

my complete system was designed and build around a very .........limited budget

my grow trays and the rest of my very simple worked very good

these are some photos of when i took my system down.

on these photos you can see the plastic is folded .....very simple

you can see the grow trays rolled up for the storeing of my system

you can see how cheap and easy it was to setup

Werner where and if i can help with any info please don't hesitate

happy new year

Thanks for your reply. Great idea. But how did you seal the plastic? Is it difficult to flow in and flow out the water? Why I am asking: we try to create a very cheap way of Aquaponics in Thailand for the poor farmers in the north and northeast of the country. Thanks for your help and a Happy New Year.

Hi Werner

With wooden frames ....no

they would work better if you build a frame around the outside

these trays had nothing around them so they ballooned and i lost depth of growtrays

besides this they were cheap and durable

worked ok

Hi Francois, my question: how did you create the grow beds? With wooden frames? Thanks.
