Aquaponics system update week 20 & 21
Hey steemit. Not much happening, lettuce race about tied, mine showing signs of bolting. My tomatoes and peppers are still green and are now getting eaten by bugs even they can't wait. I did remove a lot of nearby shrub growth so hoping for a sunny september.

My nitrates have never been so high, my system is now overstocked, I'm a bit dissapointed I only have 34 trout. I am now limiting the feeding of my fish. On the other hand I should have already started harvesting fish two weeks ago.
