  • Bladluis en mier vs lieveheersbeestje en koud…

    aquaponics biogevechten

    Omdat onze planten zo lekker zijn moeten we ze beschermen tegen indringers. De kleinste indringers weten toch onze kas binnen te sluipen. Munt en peterselie worden aangevallen door bladluizen. Wij...

  • Gobsmacked piping system!

    Aquaponkiss at Dijksgracht 6

    Thursday we finished an important new piping system that will help us to keep the watering system more stable.

  • Van koud naar warm

    Het wordt al lekker warm in de kas

    Het water in ons aquaponics systeem stroomt sinds begin februari non stop door de groeibedden en vistanks. De afgelopen periode zijn we bezig geweest met het geven van de eerste workshop en het...

  • Groene kunst, Amsterdam aquaponics.

    Hoe groen de stad heeft gevormd

    Landbouw heeft door de eeuwen heen invloed gehad op de vormgeving van de stad. Veel straten in oude steden zijn aangelegd om het voedsel van het platteland efficiënt aan de man te brengen. Door...

  • Vis uit de grachten vervuild of schoon

    Kunnen we de vissen uit de grachten eten zonder gezondheidsrisico's?

  • Pruning tomatoes

    Light and air

    My father has years and years of experience growing tomatoes. The first thing I learned from him was pruning. 'The most important thing', according to him.

  • Een eerlijke review van onze aquaponics

    minpunten om te verbeteren

    Er is veel informatie te vinden over waarom je aan aquaponics zou moeten beginnen maar de minder toffe dingen worden weinig genoemd.

  • Vis uit de grachten

    De toekomst van visserij in Amsterdam

    De Amsterdamse grachten zitten vol eetbare vissen. Waarom doen we hier niet meer mee?

  • Vertical Farming Ikea-stijl

    Verslag van KamerVragen op 21 februari 2013

    ‘Boeren‘ in de stad, het is mogelijk en iedereen kan het. Dit werd gisteravond door Willem Velthoven van Mediamatic en John Apesos van Simbicity gedemonstreerd tijdens KamerVragen in de...

  • Fresh Aquaponics chard for lunch!

    From system to plate

    We were very glad to see that our chard survived the harsh winter! They had beautifully grown and were ready for harvest. Today chef Andrea from the favelous restaurant made a fingerlicking dish with...

  • Trout timeout!

    The big one chases the small one

    Who knows why trout in captive chase each other? The big trout gives the small one just not a second of rest.

  • Aquaponic Kitchen

    Risotto With Peas and Chard

    My first contribution as Aquaponics Intern: lunch!
  • Project in mind Antoni Gandia (AD), Daniel Parnitzke, lukas pressler

    Beers, mushrooms, algae and more

    Hey! ho! Let's grow!

    Designing sustainable agronomic systems

  • Ladybirds

    A promiscuous cannibalistic insect loved by gardeners

    Lately we have been finding several aphids on our plants in the greenhouse. One way to fight aphids is by spraying cold water over plants. However, aphids can also be fought in an organic way: by...

  • Cooling a greenhouse

    How to cool a greenhouse on hot summer days

    With the summer approaching, the temperature in the greenhouse were rising. On sunny days the temperature can skyrocket during this time of year. Imagine what the temperature in the greenhouse will...

  • Structuring processes

    Backing up our assumptions

    Our oldest system has been running for one and a half years now and we've seen happening a lot to it in this time. Ebs and flows, births and deaths, seeds and fruits. To have this experience is...

  • Biological Control

    The circle of life writ small in our aquaponics greenhouse

    It's all just things eating things in here.

  • First crops hit the grow beds

    Tuesday we planted our first plants in the grow beds.

  • Too big, too many

    The catfish are growing

    Yesterday we experimented with different techniques to measure our catfish.

  • Back in circulation

    A change of scenery in two weeks

    Whaaaaat! So much can change in two weeks, it's unbelievable! When Saro and I entered the tent today after Christmas family visits, surprise after surprise greeted us.

  • A new system!

    Thanks to the workshop participants

    Last friday we built a new system. It's about time too, because the catfish are a little bit overstocked.

  • Cauliflower in the greenhouse

    It's happy!

    During the workshop in January we replanted the cauliflower from the train system in the new system.

  • Pollinator fan

    To help the tomatoes

    Today we installed a small fan like those used for cooling the computers, but this one works at 220 v. Hermaphrodite tomato flowers need hard wind for pollination.

  • Mint tea

    fresh from our aquaponics farm

  • Bright and shiny

    Philips LEDs give new perspective to grow lights

    Those new grow LEDs we got from Philips are very bright indeed! It feels like we've been trying to get plants growing in dusk al this time
