Growing Healthy Vegetables in Aquaponics
Kohlrabi in aquaponics
Aquaponics is capable of growing most greens (lettuces, bok choy, basil, Swiss chard, kale
and other herbs, etc.) and many blooming plants such as tomatoes, cucumbers and beans.
Aquaponics systems that use crushed gravel in their Grow Table as the substrate are not de-
signed to produce starches or grow root vegetables such as potatoes, onions, carrots, beets,
radishes,etc.(believeme,we'vetriedadozentimes).However,wehavehadsomeluckwith
growing kohlrabi (photo above) which creates a large edible bulb above the gravel's surface.
