Ideas for the Growing System

Hi there! Today I would like to share some of the ideas involving the growing system I am going to set up in my school. First, the produce grown would be sold to the cafeteria. The money would be put back into the system to make improvements. Second, I plan on the system to be Aquaponic based, using fish waste as the source nutrients. The only problem is that I am not sure what to do with the fish once they die. Can they be harvested before they die, depending on the fish used? If you have any experience with this in a school or non-school environment, I would appreciate your ideas.

Modern Agriculture: An Introduction

Hello, my name is Matt and on this blog, I am going to share with you my experience starting an indoor growing system at my school. To provide some context, I am a junior in high school and have been interested in hydroponics for several years now. My passion started during the summer going into seventh grade. I wanted to have the best science fair project that year. I did a ten week experiment testing the growth of peppers being grown in a hydroponic system as opposed to being grown in soil. I did well in the science fair, however, my eighth grade project titled "Parabolic Reflection" won multiple awards. Since then, I have monitored my own hydroponic system in my basement. Now, I have the opportunity to start a hydroponic system in my school. I feel the need to share my experience with others who might want to do something very similar in their school.
