A quick question for you OP, did you line the bottom of the pits with plastic, or do you simply top off the fish water tank as needed?
Quoting: Rabid Wolf My semi-pit tunnel is totally bare-earth on the bottom and sides. In the future I may cover the sides with plastic mulch to keep weeds from growing. My high tunnel aquaponics system and garden pond have styrofoam insulation on the bottom and heavy duty 45 mil epdm pond liners on top of that. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 57472949 I certainly applaud you for creative use of materials. (like you, I prefer function over form) However, I live in Georgia, so I need to figure out a decent way to keep a greenhouse like that cool enough to grow subtropical and temperate zone crops. :/ hmm... I am on a well so evaporating water is not a problem, maybe I'll just have to leave it open sided during the spring, summer, and fall, and close it up just for winter. You gave me lots of great ideas OP, so I thank you!
