Today I added another 50 goldfish to the vertical aquaponics system. That brings the total to 200. Only 50 more to go. I'll add the last of them in a couple of weeks.
I was happy to see that I have a bunch of ripe strawberries! I had to muster all my willpower to leave this one there for another day. Who knows though, maybe tonight I'll get my wife to pick it. She never gets the first strawberry of the season.
I have 70 plants in the vertical aquaponics system, around 80 plants in various wicking containers, and 168 plants in a 56 foot garden bed. Last year the vertical aquaponics system and wicking containers produced enough strawberries for our family to last until about December. This year I'm hoping to freeze just a few more and bring the rest to market. That's the plan anyway.
