Aquaponics Introduction

Pay it
Forward

25 value - Virtual OK - Posted Apr 23, 2017

Aquaponics is an incredible system for growing food. It mates the concepts of aquaculture and hydroponics, utilizing the best of both while mitigating the negatives.

Aquaculture is the farming of fish and other aquatic life. Hydroponics is growing plants in soilless medium, like gravel or expanded clay. Both systems are met with immense challenges. Fish produce waste, and so you need massive filtration systems, and occasionally have to waste water. Hydroponics is overly complicated, and also includes massive water waste.

Aquaponics mitigates all of this by creating a closer-to-nature system that is truly symbiotic. Simply put, fish waste feeds plants, and plants filter the water.

In a one hour seminar, I will show you exactly how it works, the system I use and answer any questions you might have.

Devin agreed to write a blog post for my hypnotherapy business's blog. The same blog I have had a dozen other Simbi people write for. He emailed ask...ing for length after I had already gone to bed for the night (I go to sleep very late as I work until midnight). By the time I woke up he said "I hope it was short" and said it was already finished. Not only was it too short (I go for 400-500ish for most posts), but it was insulting towards me and my profession and mocked the topic. He complained that he didn't want to rewrite. I guess after 190 positive Simbi experiences, my luck had to run out some time. ETA : After I refused to change my neutral review to a positive one which would have been a lie, he continued to harass me even when he said he was finished talking to me. He continued to escalate in anger. His harassment led me to report him to Simbi which caused him to change his neutral review to a scathing negative review. He was to write an informative educational blog post, he instead put his opinion in it about hypnotists which was negative. His comments about hard/soft science was in regard to evidence based medical research which supported hypnosis. Hypnosis by the way is taught in medical school as well as in EMS school, both of which I attended after I earned two hard science degrees. I am currently a practicing clinician with a medical license. I do not recommend working with this person. I wish him the best of luck.show more
