that could be the problem right there, it has farm runoff. likely they use fertilizers and that isn't a good recipe.

High nitrates so I would think great but not so. I’ve honestly never seen a aquaculture setup work well with marijuana but would love to see one that does.

what i was getting at, is that runnoff water is high in leachate, specifically magnesium Potassium Calcium and nitrogen. but not so much in the other elements. it's like growing with terrible nutrient ratios. fertilizer runoff causes algae blooms and lead to toxic water conditions.

He has ducks in them too. At lkeast they are free to come and go....I mean, what does a duck do in water, as well as land,,,lol

My lake water here this time of year has 0.2EC, about the same as very low EC tap water. It's a big lake. Though it is seasonal and I've seen it as high at 0.4EC. I will just have to keep testing it. So far so good. My plants are turning to gold. Like it looks like actual gold paint the leaves are painted with. Never run this strain (Dynafem BlueCheese) before so not sure if this is normal or not for this strain. I also popped 5 beans so I have 5 different phenos on the table, only some of them are doing this:

Thanks doc. I’ll have a look. Seen lots of leafy lettuce and such but not really a successful pot one.

In Canada there is some large MJ Producer (LP) using aquaponics. I forget their name.

And one cool thing is they give the fish to the food bank 
. I actually hate tallapia, but it would probably taste good if I was starving lol. Some pretty cool shit (hehehe) right there.
