    She said she wouldn't grow them any other way. Also, she's thinking about trying a tea rose !

    NEAT! I will throw a few of those in when I get my next system up and running. They will be great for special occasions, and cheaper and better quality than buying them from the florist in large quantities!

    Thank you for the pics; I am a believer now! And, I am sure The Big Guy upstairs would raise an eyebrow at growing roses in fish poo, but he would probably give you brownie points for trying it though!

    Hi abdul, I thought it was there, just to direct the flow of water...to keep it from splashing.
    I'll ask her and see....

    Re: growing roses in aquaponics

    Ok.....Raychel said.........

    You were right David it is just directing the water into the bed. We have a problem sometimes with the water spraying all over which is loss of water by evaporation. We just put a bottle of the appropriate size on the end to direct it. We did this on rafts and gravel.
