    Re: Im building a 144 sq ft grow bed system.

    Thanks again for that info. i will check it out. i have a few pics of the garden. I ended up just pulling the plants up that had the spider mites on them. they would just cover the stems and beans up until you really couldnt tell what it was. its really frustrating when you have to do that. i will give that other stuff a try. here are some pics of what i have going now

    Well I learned what little i know about aquaponics is from this website. without JCO and the crew i would still be in the research stage prob. everybody wants you to buy there knowledge and jump around questions. everytime i asked questions here they gave me a good answer. the fact that your here on this webstite is a great start in the right direction. these guys are professionals. if you have any questions just ask. its really a cool process. when you tell people you grow plants out of rocks, they look at you crazy. lol

    Re: Im building a 144 sq ft grow bed system.

    Hello, and sorry I havn't wrote in such a long time. I started a job out of town, and I am gone a long time. my greenhouse was doing quite well up until about a month ago. I had the same banana peppers and bell pepper plants since last year. That was pretty cool. I recently got a bunch of aphids on everything in the greenhouse and its slowly getting all the plants. I tried insectisitle soap, (even sprayed seven dust on it. I put spirement and peppermint around the plants, with no results. I even bought ladybugs but they didn't stick around very long. I recently bought 5000 eggs of lacewings. hopefully that will help. Other than that everything is going down the drain. On a positive note, I have shown this greenhouse to a lot of people and they are all in amaze. It does grown faster than conventional gardens. I had four squash plants (before the aphids got to them), and they got huge. One plant had at least 10 squash setting on it. Its totally amazing how all this works. I'm almost to the end of my rope. Im about to set the fish free and shut down and let all the aphids die and start over. I know that is a sucky way to do it but I don't know what to do.

    Hey it's always great to have a good job, but sorry it had to be at the loss of your A/P system. Whatever you do, don't give up.
