Aquaponic Update June 9, 2018
The wasabi plants are doing well since they were brought inside two months ago. There used to be more wasabi and they once lived outside in a in an artificial stream. A move from an upper story unit to ground level created a new slug and aphid problem. I didn't want to use pesticides, so I decided to set up an indoor aquaponic environment to host the refugee wasabi plants.
Notice something?
Along side the wasabi, is a cannabis sprout. From previous experience growing both species of plant, I have an idea that cannabis and wasabi might prefer similar environments.
Butter leaf
I bought butter leaf with roots intact from the store. I planted the trimmed rooted plants and they took.
Cannabis Roots
The cannabis plant's root system has reached the water and seems very happy.
The Fish are hungry
Looking for food
Lighting system
The ecosystem is thriving off this 150 Watt HPS. I may add another.
