Seemed to bolt up this week. I alternated fish emulsion with recharge whenever the first inch of soil was dry. Also removed the cover crop and straw as it was getting into the fish tank. She started to flower and developed a faint smell that was almost sweet. System is done cycling and the fish are in. They had no more goldfish at the store so I went with tetras instead.

Great work! How do you like the aquaponics growth rate? I have an aquaponics system setup with Tilapia right now and am growing veggies but was considering running some cannabis in it. I was worried there would not be enough nitrogen and minerals to keep the plants happy. 👍

@noble5052, Thanks for the heads up- I saw there is a viable aquaponic safe option to add liquid kelp/sea weed to help with the possible mineral/nute deficiency and not hurt the fish. Looks like the most effective grow method would be a hybrid like you did - transplant it with soil into the aquaponics medium. The tilapia definitely put out more nutrients than a few guppies 😁. I may try a clone cutting into the aquaponics soon. Thanks for the insight, and keep on experimenting and sharing your results!

@Beangineer, The cannabis is in a container with soil and clay media separated by burlap. I've been adding flowering nutrients and compost tea to the top. From what I understand soil is needed for microbes and to add minerals and other nutrients besides nitrogen. Also I'm sure tilapia could yield bigger plants than four guppies.
