Ever hear of aquaponics einstein..... Information doesn't need to be supplied if it's a general topic in the subject you're demanding hard evidence in. Now I know exactly who I was directing that statement too. You're the one that needs to do research, and stop spreading false information to the community of RIU. Let me begin.... Ammonia doesn't "go to the atmosphere", obviously you have no experience with plants, water, or fish. When owning even a fish tank, you must check your nitrites, nitrates, and ammonia levels, which are ALL FOUND IN URINE due to the simple nitrogen cycle (process in which ammonia is converted to nitrite which is then converted to nitrate.)... Back to aquaponics... the waste from these fish is effluent-rich water which becomes high in plant nutrients. The plants drink the nutrient filled water, thus cleaning it, which is then returned to the aquatic animal environment and the cycle continues.... this form of hydroponics REPLICATES the flourishing plants on the banks of your natural water ways... still on your high horse?.... here: I'll save you from "researching" and I'll inform you of the ancient roots this method has.... some consider the aztecs the first to use it, others refer to the egyptians. Either way, they are both old enough that if the process wasn't ethical, it wouldn't have been continued for thousands of years. Since you stated that I was using profanity, I mine as well start off since there wasn't anything vulgar in my previous post other then sarcastic exaggeration pointed directly at you: get the fuck out of this thread. it's morons like you who mislead hundreds of people just searching for a simple solution or gateway that will lead them to an open door of endless possibilities. Save it for the people that are actually informed and knowledgeable in this hobby, and keep browsing the newbie section suggesting which type of bulb to use during the different photoperiods of growth with people that share similar competency levels as you with cultivating.
"cherio mate"
Obviously, your a frigin genius mate
Thanks for all the great evidence and clarification einstein
Nothing like feeling a little misguided but yet being told your an einstein
You should be a Doctor...of something...maybe fish poop eh? Go high tech and get into Martian Poop
If I am einstein, you are implying I already know, or are you implying sarcasim. For being so smart yourself mate, you still leave me confused and misguided.
A high horse? What about a low horse? Why does it even have to be a horse? I am amused that you are confusing someone pissing in a stream and someone pissing in your tea mate ?
You know, they say those hard to defend undocumented claims, tend to be false
But that doesnt take an einstein to know that mate
You should consider a career if FACT POLICE, or GROWING POLICE...Mate, blowing this out of proportion. We are talking about piss eh? Not someone pissing on you? Taking it to personal my friend. FYI, I am informed, but apparently not enough to phase you on that high horse eh? Its called Botany ...also know as Plant Biology....Check My name at Cornell University...Do a background check...hell google me mate...The name is RIVERS STINSMAN...if you need my id, no worries I can post that on RIU anlong with my DEGREE from a IVY LEAGUE school
Just let me know if you need MY DOCUMENTATION that I CAN PROVIDE...unlike some one I know on a horse around here
Im just after your alleged documentation and research. See, in the professional world, upon request you are supposed to have your shit together and be able to prove what you are claiming. Not tell the person requesting documentation to go research it them selves. Nothing personal, just need scientific evidence to support your claims would help guide me eh?
Cherio
