Creative uses of aquaponics
about 5 years ago
– Mon, Sep 16, 2019 at 02:50:11 PM
Aquaponics is a growing technique that combines elements of aquaculture (raising aquatic animals such as snails, fish, crayfish or prawns) and hydroponics (growing plants in water and without soil) together in one integrated system. Aquaponics can be used to generate revenue by selling produce to tourists. This can also be a means of reducing dependencies on food importation. Aquaponics offers the ability to turn waste into a resource. This has a lot of potential towards promoting self-sustainable agriculture. Aquaponic Gardening enables home fish farming. You can now feel good about eating fish again. Aquaponic Gardening uses 90% less water than soil-based gardening because the water is re-circulated and only that which the plants take up or evaporates is ever replaced.
Aquaponic systems recirculate and reuse water very effectively. The system relies on the relationship between the animals and the plants to maintain a stable aquatic environment that experiences a minimum of fluctuation in ambient nutrient and oxygen levels. Aquaponic systems can also be used to replicate controlled wetland conditions. Constructed wetlands can be useful for biofiltration and treatment of typical household sewage. Aquaponic systems can also be utilized to produce organic vegetables and herbs, and provide indoor decor at the same time. These systems can serve as a source of herbs and vegetables indoors.
Aquaponics has also been used as a sustainable, environmentally-friendly method of filtering the water of a polluted lake. So, not just farming can benefit from aquaponics! With a little bit of creative thought, aquaponics and other sustainable farming methods can help with many of today's problems.

How to Boost Your Health By Starting Your Own Herb Garden
over 5 years ago
– Thu, Aug 01, 2019 at 05:04:33 PM
Gardening brings out the natural beauty in your home. It can also give you a sense of purpose and help you return to a centered state. According to Psychology Today, gardeners experience positive mental and emotional health benefits from their favorite hobby. Multiple studies have shown that gardening refocuses our minds on our dreams and aspirations. It also helps us relax and unwind.
Even more promising, gardening might help prevent many chronic health conditions. The AARP recommends gardening for reducing the risk of dementia and depression. It can also reduce feelings of loneliness. It can even provide an enjoyable form of cardiovascular activity.
Here are some home gardening tips and tricks that both green thumbs and beginners can use:
1. Determine What to Grow
Your first step in planting your own home garden is deciding what types of plants and herbs you'd like to grow. Do you want annuals or perennials? Do you want to grow your own herbs and vegetables or would you like to grow flowers as well?
If you're new to gardening, it is important to also consider plants that are easier for beginners to grow. Bamboo and succulents are hardy plants that are easy to grow and maintain. This makes them good choices for beginners.
2. Grow Your Own Food
Many people get into gardening because they are interested in growing their own food, such as herbs, fruits, or vegetables. It's easy to find helpful online resources for growing your own food, including this consumer horticulture site from Purdue University.
Growing an herb garden can be a satisfying and relaxing activity for a homeowner. Herbs are among the easiest types of plants to maintain. They need very little upkeep. They also provide you with flavorful additions for your home-cooked meals. This makes herb gardens an excellent choice, even for those who are new to gardening.
3. Composting
After creating your own home garden, you might also consider composting. According to the HomeAdvisor, composting is when a homeowner takes organic matter, such as fruit and vegetable peels and coffee grounds, and allows them to decompose in order to create organic fertilizer. The decomposing organic matter from your garden is nutrient-dense, making it an excellent natural fertilizer for your plants.
4. Watch Out for Insects
Home gardens attract many types of insects. While pollinators like bees are good for your garden, you'll want to watch out for aphids and other pests. These insects can destroy your plants.
Pesticides can contain harmful chemicals even if they are popular with many gardeners. To protect yourself and your plants, you might opt for chemical-free pest control options. You might consider an organic, chemical-free brand from your local grocer.
Another great option is to create your very own organic spray using natural ingredients such as neem oil. This repels bugs without harming your plants. As an added bonus, neem oil also kills fungus--a double win for your garden!
As you can see, there are a variety of benefits to starting your very own home garden. Even if you make mistakes when you start out, you have to be patient with yourself...Try to enjoy the process. You might find that your new hobby is fun, rewarding and relaxing.

4 Reasons Why Betta Fish are Perfect for Beginners
over 5 years ago
– Tue, Jul 16, 2019 at 01:19:19 AM
Betta fish, also called siamese fighting fish, are one of the most easily recognized fish species. They're known for their gorgeous fins and a wide variety of colors. Did you know that betta fish fins have taste buds? Did you also know that betta fish are perfect for beginners? Here are 4 reasons why:
1. Betta fish are kept separate when sold. As a result, they are accustomed to living in solitary environments.
4. Most other fish for smaller tanks are smaller in size and can't tolerate travel as much, but bettas are larger and transport much better. They're known for being a hardy species.
