Attended a 4 days training course between 4th to 8th October, 2010 in setting up an Aquaponics system in Hilo Island, Hawaii. It is organic certified process and very low cost to set up, scalable and use less than 1% of water and 40% energy compare to traditional commercial farming. The course is run by Tim Mann and Susan Friend, Friendly Aquaponics. Inc,
http://www.advancednutrients.com/carbs Whether you’re a hobbyist gardener or a professional grower, sooner or later you are going to hear about the carbs controversy…
What I’m talking about is this: Some people claim carbohydrates cannot be absorbed by plants at all, and that carbohydrate supplements are little more than snake oil.
Others agree your crops could use an extra boost, but they wrongly assert that carbs cannot be taken up by the roots. Better to apply them by foliar spray, they say. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth.
And believe it or not, there are even old-timers who still insist that all you need is molasses. High-grade molasses which is low in sulfur can indeed benefit your plants (if it doesn’t clog up your lines). But what your crops really need is the full spectrum of carbohydrates that matches their species profile.
Let’s face it, with so many contradictory viewpoints and misinformation out there, it is no wonder so many growers feel confused. The forums, as always, are abuzz with advice. Everyone has an opinion, and different people will tell you different things.

The perfect match between areoponics and hydroponics, these mango strain pot plants thrive on Foxfarms nutrients, the water temp in 78, ph is 5.8 and ppm is 1300. This is what they look like after just 7 weeks. They are an auto flower strain. http://www.growersunderground.com/

By far the largest display area at the convention was the Advanced Nutrients display. Virtually every product that they sell was featured there… along with some power trimmers and sexy asian girls. They were also handing out buttons with numbers on them. Each button had a twin with the same number on it. If you found the person wearing your twin button then you both got to split $1000.
No luck over here tho….
