I have been growing a garden on my balcony for years now. Started to show my kids how plants were born, from seeds to fruits, it slowly turned into a kind of funny way to have fresh food at home. As a side effect it also appears to be a wonderful way to soothe me after a day of hard work. | I have been growing a garden on my balcony for years now.

Thus this year we decided to turn pro but I am a first timer. What is below is the fruit of active readings of books, internet websites, conversations with some very passionate shopkeepers... So please, let me know if I did something wrong or if you have lessons learned to share ;-) | Thus this year we decided to turn pro but I am a first timer.

=====Hydroponic Ideas===== | |||
[https://www.instructables.com/Hydroponic-ideas/ by Graham L in Workshop AUTODESK Instructables] | |||
I have not published in a while as I have been designing new hyroponic systems. | |||
This instructable is not how to build the systems but to show what can be done with a little bit of insight and a lot of help from above. | |||
I am a huge fan of aquaponics, but due to massive fish losses through load shedding (South Africa), I deceided to try my hand at pure hydroponics. | |||
In the steps that follow are some ideas that have proven workable and efficient and have shown exceptional plant production. | |||
I hope that this will inspire others to think out of the box and enjoy the friuts, (in this case veggies and herbs), of your labour. | |||
