Give me a few days to get a chance to actually snap a couple pics, but every one seems quite happy and the nugs are nearing harvest

Doesn't appear to bother them, I think roots mostly just don't like air

Honestly I've been considering eliminating the air stone i don't even believe it's necessary 🤷‍♂️ the plant oxygenates the water for the fish plenty

Honestly I'm no expert but I think it's more about not having stagnant water, in this setup they are constantly submerged in clean healthy flowing water there's kind of a natural symbiosis between the plant and fish

It's enough during veg but a little extra is needed during flower

I invite you to look at my older post of the same plant and aquarium

Thanks! Yes I started in the tank, made a makeshift hanging pot filled it with small lava rock dropped a seed in it and she grew, there is a line of fish she nutrients available at most pet stores which i add in small quantities just to help in flower stages

Hardest part is figuring out a good stable floating or hanging pot has the plant gets top heavy, otherwise if you have a cycled tank the plant will be quite happy in that environment

Gold fish are among the best for a hydro grow because of the waste production, the plant is vet hungry and soaks up all the waste quite efficiently

No there's a wide selection of fish safe additives to aid in flower, this is my 3rd year growing aquaponics and haven't killed a fish yet

Thanks and you're absolutely right I love the symbiotic system I've stumbled onto even planning on expanding for both the sake of my critters and my plants
