| Barrel-ponics by Travis Hugley |
A good introduction to growing plants and fish in barrels. Use the fish excrement to fertilize the plants, and the plants clean the waters for the fish. A great system, although reliant on pumps, it is still fairly low-tech and can be done inexpensively. Holds promise for some high density food growing.. |
