Tested the system.
Ammonia 0
Nitrate 0
Nitrate 5
PH 6.2, maybe slightly lower
Looks like the coir has made the water more acid :( It is always on the acidic side due to the rain water we use. Will have to get something to buffer it a bit.
Planted some Rainbow Chard and Snake Beans.
..Chard into a thin layer of coir on top of a gravel pot.
..Snake Beans into Gravel Pot. Some into plugs, other into the gravel. See how they go.
Borlotti Beans that were planted in plugs in gravel pots a couple weeks ago have their first flowers
Moved the last 4 GoldFish to the GF tank. These had refused to be caught til today but I want to let the native (Rainbows?) have a tank to themselves. I think they have been eating the babies :(
Looks like we will need to prune another limb off the big fig tree. My GB is getting a bit too shaded.
