Sinopse

Listen to Part 3 of my talk with Rob Torcellini of Bigelow Brook Farm. What differentiates Rob from other innovators, how Rob responds to some negative comments, the cost related to setting up a backyard greenhouse and aquaponic system, expanded shale, liners, how to set up portable systems, deep water beds, and supplemental feeding such as salvinia, duckweed, scrap lettuce, and insects. We also talk about how Rob has automated his aquaponic system (which is a hot topic right now!) including automated 24/7 fish feeder, vents, and what type of cylinders you need to stay away from. He also talks about red wigglers, swirl filters, and mineralization tank for capturing and processing solids. Also find out how a swirl filter is different from a radio flow filter and discover which one is better. More topics such as longevity of lettuce with live roots on, food safety, value added products, and food safety laws.
