Rooting Cuttings Using Aquaponics

Project: 1/4 Acre Permaculture Homestead and Food Forest

Posted by Harold Thornbro about 2 years ago

Over the last few months I have integrated aquaponics into my small greenhouse. This has mostly been used for quickly rooting cuttings.

Most of the cutting I have placed in this system have a high success rate of rooting in soil but I find they root at least twice as fast using aquaponics. I have been rooting elderberry, fig, mulberry, and goji.

This has been helpful for the affordable, quick expansion of the food forest. Because of this system, I have been able to add dozens of these plants/trees to the property for free.

The fact that it has allowed you to expand your food forest with so many plants and trees for free is truly remarkable. Keep up the great work, and thanks for sharing your experience!

Legend of Badges

Note: The various badges displayed in people profiles are largely honesty-based self-proclamations by the individuals themselves. There are reporting functions users can use if they know of blatant misrepresentation (for both people and projects). Legitimacy, competency and reputation for all people and projects can be evidenced and/or developed through their providing regular updates on permaculture work they’re involved in, before/after photographs, etc. A spirit of objective nurturing of both people and projects through knowledge/encouragement/inspiration/resource sharing is the aim of the Worldwide Permaculture Network.

pri_teacher

PRI Teacher

With the exception of the ‘Member’ who has never taken a PDC, all of the above can apply to become a PRI PDC Teacher. PRI PDC Teachers are those who the PRI recognise, through a vetting board, as determined and competent to teach the full 72-hour course as developed by Permaculture founder Bill Mollison – covering all the topics of The Designers’ Manual as well as possible (i.e. not cherry picking only aspects the teacher feels most interested or competent in). Such teachers also commit to focussing on the design science, and not including subjective spiritual/metaphysical elements. The reason these items are not included in the PDC curriculum is because they are “belief” based. Permaculture Design education concerns itself with teaching good design based on strategies and techniques which are scientifically provable.

PRI PDC Teachers may be given teaching and/or consultancy offerings as they become available as the network grows.
