Hi Marie,

Red worms turn dead roots, detritus and bacterial slime back into nitrates while cleaning gravel beds too. They produce plant growth hormones, spread mycorhyzal fungi.  With worms in the beds your water is a brew of aerated compost tea which we hear so often used as foliar nutrient and pest control. 

I want to see if my beds will thrive on worm nitrate alone, obviating need for fish.

Welcome Marie,

 

Thanks for joining the Aquaponic Gardening community!  I hope you find it a fun place to explore aquaponics.  There is a real blend of experienced and new aquapons in this community, so please don’t hesitate to get in there and start asking questions.  Everyone is quite happy to help out new members – no question is too basic. 

 

A great place to start is to read the “How to Use This Site” link on the upper right corner, “Start Here” section of the Home page.  You might also find the “Aquaponic Gardening Rules of Thumb” guidelines helpful.

 

Please add a profile image, participate and check in with us every day!  We are constantly posting news about aquaponics and the good food movement.

 

Normally Sylvia Bernstein, the community's founder, would be welcoming you, but she is enjoying a well deserved vacation and I am helping out by welcoming new members in her absence.  I am certain she would be excited to have you join and she will be looking forward to getting to know you upon her return.  Thanks again for joining us, and I too look forward to getting to know you too.  See you around the site!

 

Gina Cavaliero
