How are things progressing for you Helo?

I started with a 55 Gal Barrel. My testing exceeded my expectations so now I am focusing on setting up my basement system. And hopefully by then I will have my small outdoor pond finished.

I wanted to post pictures of my setup but I am unable to. I need to find a place to post pics that I can link here then I guess. :(

Still waiting for a contractor to help me fix my wall, then I can start the greenhouse.

Go to photobucket and load your pics there.

Its amazing this from seeds planted Dec 4. And I get 50 minutes of direct sun a day. I built a lighting system it will run me $74 for that a year.

Waiting on the Tilapia to breed...

So planning the basement gonna be a 350 gallon container fish container, growbed and more tilapia. (Indoor temp is safe)

Digging the Ponds

Racoons killed my fish and shredded the liner so re digging the main pond and rebuilding both of em. Hand digging is training me I guess.
