Pieter1 Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 What size is your system?What pumps are you using?I was using an ibc with a bilge pump attached to a solar panel . Worked well. Eddy Gordo 1
Pieter1 Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 You can keep the fish separate as well.I have been looking at natural pools that use various water plants as filteration. I would like to incorporate an aquaponics system with it. I would like to use pond liners.That sounds like a plan then. Will look at it again when I’m closer to being a home owner.

sawystertrance Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Spot on. I thought it would be difficult, dammit. DJR 1
fanievb Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Spot on. I thought it would be difficult, dammit. I've had so many hidings because of eating "granate" and ruining clothes that, that plant/flower is forever enshrined in my mind Ed-Zulu, Steven Knoetze (sk27), Long Wheel Base and 2 others 5
sawystertrance Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 It's weird. The bush is about a year old and is about 40cm high. There is just this one flower on it. How does that happen? Is that all the plant thinks it can currently support?
Mokgaga'a mmakubela! Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 i have pomegranate tree but my challenge is fruit flies
sawystertrance Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Is it expensive to put a net over it? https://www.greenlifesoil.com.au/sustainable-gardening-tips/fruit-fly-tips-for-organic-control-in-the-home-garden
sawystertrance Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Bugger. The South Easter blew my Pomegranate tree over last night and the one and only flower fell off. No fruit this season.... DJR and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 2
Ispeed_V Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Question - has anyone experimented with using Epsom Salts in the growing of their veg? Heard that it adds sweetness to the veg and would be interested to hear first hand?

Is that all the plant thinks it can currently support?Break that flower off, allow the bush to grow this season without fruit, established better roots, generally stronger and next year will be good.

Heard that it adds sweetness to the veg and would be interested to hear first hand?i add it to my my aquaponics. it ups the level of magnesium which is essential in plant growth.
Pieter1 Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) Found these pics among some fb memories. I miss my ibc, it is a lekker way to garden. Stretched that setup looks nice man! Edited February 4, 2019 by Pieter1 Stretched@Birth and Long Wheel Base 2
