Hydroponics and Aquaponics?
I would like to build an amature model of this, small enough to fit in an 8 x 6 window but big enough to grow some decent fruit or vegies that are capable of Indoor Growing.
I would like to know a book or online resource that gives detailed instructions on building these things. I also would like to make it completely natural, IE no electricity. I don’t mind having to do manual labor once a day or so to make it work, but another thing I was looking into was gravity pumps (without eletricity and metal).
Does anyone have something like that broken down in a way to make one at home as a DIY?
Sounds like a fun project. Hydroponics is the growing of plants without soil. There are some really good plans on the internet. To answer your desire to not use electricity, I would suggest that you use a “wick” system. Take a look at this website to get more information – www.simplyhydro.com/system.htm .
Aquaponics involves growing fish. It also requires a more “active” system as water and air need to be circulated enough to meet the needs of fish (oxygen and clean water) AND the needs of plants (oxygen,water and nutrients). Go to Aquaponics.com to get some really good information.
I have an aquaponics system with 450 bluegills. My system pumps water once every two hours to plant beds filled with pea rock. There is a bell syphyon in the beds that drains the beds when it gets to a predetermined level. Go to Youtube.com and type in bell syphon to see how it works.
I like the aquaponics system over Hydroponics because it uses the natural resources (fish poop) to meet meet the plant needs. Hydroponics require that you monitor nutrient levels and then add nutrients as needed.
Have fun and take a look at all the information on the internet. YouTube.com has a lot of do it yourself information. Just type in hydroponics or aquaponics in YouTube.

Hydroponics: Soilless Gardening Explained $25.75 Plants need nutrients, air, water, and light with a little warmth to survive. Traditionally these have been provided by soil, but hydroponic techniques allow plants not only to survive but also to thrive by gaining the perfect balance of nutrients from a regulated solution. This book looks at the flood and drain method, drip feed, Nutrient Film Technique, aeroponics, and aquaponics. It offers a detailed examination of nutrient content and the strength of solution, advice on how to grow a variety of plants and how to control pests, a simple-to-follow guide to how to arrange and automate a greenhouse, and step-by-step instruction on how to build your own hydroponic systems. Without the need for stooping or weeding, hydroponics is ideal for anyone with back problems or mobility impairment, and superb for children, who can follow and monitor the plants’ growth. |
