Less space requiredI've thought about doing that but I dug myself a pond a few years ago and it just made sense to use the fish poop to feed the grow beds. It's been a blast to go out there and not have to do anything like pull weeds! The cukes grow fabulously.
What's your favorite part of hydroponics? Anything we can do to be more self sustainable is worth the effort!
