Yes, potting soil, in the garden beds, everything. Sucks up nutrients, water, life, great environment for biological life.

I just opened it up and scraped out the sludge, but putting some chips through is a good idea.

That is the one, pickup a funnel as well. I wet the biochar, dry is really dusty, I’ll scoop with the funnel and dump on top. Push through with a push stick. Try to get a bag or tote wrapped at the base.

If the biochar is wet, you will need to open and scrape the sludge down, no big deal.

It makes it into the perfect size, rice size and smaller.

Just to add life to the system, they also eat the mosquitos and other bugs.

#grownostr #ryegrass #mulberry I stuck a Mulberry cutting in a thing of ryegrass that was sitting on flowing water from the aquaponics system. It rooted, will transplant with no shock to the plant.

Check out the Wen wood chipper from Home Depot. 5 gallon bucket in about 15 minutes. Wear a mask :)

Yeah, i use plant pond baskets from Home Depot, hydroton clay balls, makes the system modular, easy to clean out. You can use lavarock, though it’s tough on your hands. Water is pumped in every 15 minutes, off for 15 during the day. Simple mechanical timer. Goldfish, koi, minnows in the pond below.

#mulberry #grownostr when is enough, enough? Propagating well. Makes me want to get on Facebook just to sell plants… ugh.

#mulberry #grownostr these trees are awesome, already have flowers for the next set of berries.

Propagating new plants, something different than working on the computer - tangible results. This is a bunch of mulberry trees.

#meme #grownostr one of my favorites

#grownostr great podcast with K9 reaper from South Africa. What it’s like to live in a declining Country: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coffee-and-a-mike/id1436799008?i=1000653615804

Sudan or milo (red seeds) forgot the name. They grow fast

Is that just black irrigation tubing with the standard connectors? How has it been working? Interested in the setup, thanks!

#grownostr #garden banana plant and sorghum doing well!
