In the last post, about if you didn’t believe in aquaponics, I showed you how an aquaponic system can make your plants grow faster than soil agriculture. Well I think the images are self explanatory.

Anyway, today I just want to show that it keeps growing. The water is still clean and the plants are doing very well; in fact, the first small melons are starting to show up. However, I must say that you should not grow melons on a 4 inch PVC pipe. This pipe is just too small for that. Melons like to grow an awful lot of roots, so they are going to clog the pipe eventually.Other plants like watermelon, cucumber and tomatoes can take you to the same place. So, if you have this pipe already, just use fewer plants. However, these melons keep growing and the flow has not been interrupted, so there is nothing to worry about.
As you can see, there are a lot of flowers and some insects have taken care of the pollination. It’s a shame that there are not bees around here, but that is the life in the big city.
The nice
thing about melons, is that they tutor themselves. Unlike tomatoes, you don’t need to use thread or other things; they have their own. In this case, I use galvanized wire to support the plant and it will keep growing “on the air”. At first, my intention was to let them grow downwards, but my dog made me forget about that.
Well, I think it will look nicer like that. Anyway, if you are going to start your aquaponic system, better to use something else. Tomatoes and peppers are my all time favorites for starters. There is a lot of information on the net about those, so it is easier to get all you need. That doesn’t mean you should forget about the others, but I find it good to have some “sure thing” plants so you don’t think this doesn’t work because you chose a rare species of… something.
After all, aquaponics is easy.
