Another Year, Another Try

"If At First We Don't Succeed..."

I went to Home Despot this afternoon, and picked up some stuff. PVC pipes, L and T joints, 4 narrow growbeds, a half-barrel (made from plastic, moulded to look like an oak barrel), seeds, and some assorted bits and pieces. I have a pump, timer, and extension cords on order (and en route). When the pump arrives, I'll be picking up the tubing.

In the beginning...

This is what I have, so far.

I have been itching to start my rig for well over a week. Unfortunately, my husband was not quite so enthusiastic. supportive, but unenthusiastic. That's okay. I downloaded a couple of books to my kindle. I read through a number of websites about aquaponics. I looked into vacant land near my house, for installing a greenhouse. I talked with my mother-in-law, about demolishing her dilapidated yard shed and letting me put a greenhouse there.
