John replied to John's discussion Low pH from grow media?"Just as a post mortem, I kept adding lime and checking pH over a couple weeks. It did the trick, now I'm almost done nitrogen cycling, and seedlings seem fine. I'll be ready to add fish next week!"
Jim Fisk replied to Vlad Jovanovic's discussion GMO's may have led to increased pesticide/herbicide usage"Those are "conservative" in name only. They are politicians first. Say what you like but right now it is the liberals in charge that are destroying what used to be a good idea. How do you know when a politician is lying? Surely I…"
Jacques L. commented on David Schwinghamer's group Arizona Aquaponics"@Sheri
No more aggressive behavior than usual.. and some of the ones dying off are my biggest fish. So don't think that's the issue. Besides.. 40 cut down to 10 is some pretty serious spousal abuse!"
ModeratorVlad Jovanovic replied to Scott Hair's discussion What fish would you recommend for a beginner?
"Verna, have you averaged out energy (heating) costs per pound of fish, per grow out season? (I'm particularly interested in winter heating costs for the tilapia). And how does that play out against the price you sell the fish for?"
Verna Gross replied to Scott Hair's discussion What fish would you recommend for a beginner?"We are at 6,500 ft elevation in SW Colorado where the temps can get pretty darn low.

Jim Fisk replied to Vlad Jovanovic's discussion GMO's may have led to increased pesticide/herbicide usage""while the rest of us seem to be fast asleep"
My point exactly and why I will not give up on ringing the alarm(s). The liberals here in the states are about to have their bell(s) rung. Mark my words, this will go down in history as the…"
ModeratorTCLynx replied to Pat James's discussion Tilapia as 'graisers' in the group Tilapia Growers
