Guppyponics in an Aquarium

I think this is called 'Aquaponics!' Old threads on it here! pr

I joined just to reply to your grow! I am doing Aquaponics as well! I am having a problem now with a deficiency which is very troublesome. I think I am having my problems because I started my tank just for this purpose; growing cannabis aquaponically. So I am learning about growing herb and about fish.

Good luck!

Yea i also thought about this when i started growing too but was having problems with the fish tank and scratched the idea after reading up on the nutes. how do you plan on feeding her the minor nutes? I believe the fish water only contains N. Also the PH seems to cause an issue messing with the fish needs because from what i found they are pretty happy with 7.0 and slightly higher.

Sounds cool. until you begin fighting root rot, nute deficiencies, pH issues, ammonia problems, etc...
Until you master hydroponics, aeroponics, and find a way to prevent organic nutrients (fish waste) from creating tons of bacterial problems, this is
something I would put in the "not impossible, but really F***ing difficult" category.

If anyone on here can pull this off, serious kudos to you and your growing skills.
The idea gets a 9.5 for creativity and a 9.9 for difficulty. I would have given you a 10.0 for difficulty but for that you have to incorporate a flamethrower into the growing
process. so close though.

that is so cool.....any updates????

put roots in pvc and insert aeration stone in bottom end of each pipe, Never grown weed like that but have grown plenty of aquatic plant like that

Im afraid Rob is correct on this one. Aquaponics(what your reffering to as guppyonics) is one of the most diffucult ways to cultivate cannabis. Even if you were to get the roots established, i dont believe you have the right fish to create a balanced mixture of NPK. Your seedlings might not even be absorbing nutrients yet, they probably just got done using all of the seeds stored energy.

This is the only successful aquaponics grow ive ever seen. Keep in mind the thread creator is damn near a hydroponics scientist. Read his thread and see what your really getting into, shit gets serious lol
