I’m not a marketer, but have been told that I am a very good writer.  Somehow my ability to string sentences together cannot override my desire, re-enforced by years of scientific training, to provide an accurate statement when asked a question.  That, apparently, is not good for marketing.  As a student I once attended a business plan writing workshop where the section on marketing was headed up by an enthusiastic woman telling us how we create hype around a brand and make people want it.…

Dear All,

I would very much enjoy doing my best to introduce miniatures like Sylvia and others in this community have developed at an Aquaponics Miniature Show Room in the Great Hall of the Tulip Biulding at Sweet Water.

There are probably about 100 visitors per week to Sweet Water these days and I suspect the numbers will keep climbing,

especially since we've signed on with the City of Milwaukee to accelerate an eco-tourism project.  There is a highly…

Sweet Water has seven 10,000 gallon fish tanks and plant platforms above ready to offer thoughtful people training in their tending and short term or long term leasing: families, schools, spiritual communities, restaurants, scientist, artists, associations, businesses, etc. Ready to brainstorming this concept.

I am building a 40'x60' greenhouse in nicaragua for our  raft system.  Does anyone have any experience in building a suitable greenhouse from locally available materials?

This is for a charitable project to help feed poor schooldren.

I got lucky today, gfi an extension protected the outlet gfi (which powers the back-up aerator), so that layout on a single outlet does work.  I'm guessing from the flashing clocks that the power went out, and then came back on with lamps and growbed pumps both powered up at once, blowing the first breaker, but leaving the air pump running, working as a built in safety trip.  The fish all seem to be fine.  I drew out a line diagram of how it's laid out, and I've attached a photo, after…

Well, trying to sneak back in here after a self imposed sabbatical and just quietly seeing what is going on has been nullified by a front page welcome.  So there, now what?  Well, perhaps I can throw the thoughts that have been floating in my head at all 800 puzzled people waiting for the man from an unknown town in the only place in the Southern Hemisphere where it is NOT raining to say something riveting. 

Well there is not much fun stuff over here right now.  Sorry.  After…

My aquaponic system set up in a small bedroom underneath a…

Well three months ago I dropped my daughter off at soccer practice and on the way back to the field I passed the old green house that is attached to the school with broken windows and junk just piled up. So I dropped her off and walked over to the green house to look inside. For the average person it looked like junk but for me I seen potential to bring this green house back alive and to use it for food production. Not just any food but fish and Veggies.  Stuff the kids can learn just in…

They blew it now.  The mother ship made a big mistake.  Here you can see an actual photo of a Mothership from the Pician Galaxy taken by our Astronauts of the cloud they use to conceal the mothership. 

Pictured: The giant anvil-shaped cloud hovering 75,000ft above Earth is photographed by…

You may have read in the news about the Fish kill(s) in middle america.  They can't figure out what happen to those poor fish. HA I say HA. We know the official explanation but we of the underground know the truth. Here are just a few of the current headlines. 

 "Maryland investigates large fish kill in Chesapeake Bay"…

We as you may know I recently returned from my abduction to the Pician Galaxy.  I was able to take some pics and gather some information about their invasion. Big Blue had mind control - transferred me to their planet. 

He is the dominant warrior in my tank.  You can read my previous posts to learn more about…

Greetings AP Community,

Let me begin by expressing my gratitude for the education and inspiration this community has provided me. A heart-felt thank you to all who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience. I have found your content to be invaluable in the planning of my AP system. 

There are a few design concerns that I would like to submit to the online brain-trust here for some feedback:

• Fish Density and Nutrient…

Dear All,

I call myself "Olde" because I can now glory in my medicare card, but also because I cannot deny experiencing a very subtle slowing down of my mindbody.  I usually need a "younge" to help me navigate incredible communication resources like this on-line community and forum for aquaponic gardeners.  But I am so excited about discovering "Aquaponic Gardening" that I'm throwing caution to the wind and hoping this blog post is not just a conversation with…

This is the story of how I was abducted by the Alien Tilapia back to their home planet in the Picus galaxy.   I have finally returned. I have "Repo"ed my body back after having been first abducted, then "Transferred" and now I have escaped and returned to my body.  Phew!@@%^^@   Glad to get that out.  If you hadn't noticed I have been absent from the Underground.  

The story of my abduction; Well about a few…

This evening as I was finishing up my work on the aquaponics and feeding tthe fish for the evening I was over come by the feeling of being BLESSED.  So since the new year is about to start I think it is a good time to think back and see how much we have been blessed by different things that have happened in our life this year.  I have been especially blessed in the Aquapoincs realm.  I have been totally blessed in finding this site not too long after Sylvia started it.  I…

Someone has dreamed about starting up an aquaponic business but was afraid of upsetting a competitor. “I don’t want to step on anyones toes,” he says

I've been out of town for the past week but I'm home now and can share some updates about my trip, I'll need to write up some stories to post in My site blog here over the next few days but just to wet your appetites...

I visited with Philip Wolf up near Chicago and his home system as well as the new System he has running at We Grow Dreams in West Chicago.

Then we went up to Milwaukee where we attended the tour at Growing Power and later that evening we went…
