While the traditional gardening process is gardening with plots on the ground, vertical gardening is a different approach to gardening as it aims to plant crops in a vertical position or standing position. This can either be done through hanging plots or with frameworks as long as plants are not planted on the ground like in traditional gardening. There are several advantages of vertical gardening. One, vertical gardening is a great space saver. Since your garden is positioned vertically, it does not take up too much space in your backyard, giving room to more plants to be planted.

Herb Gardening For Healing
The modern medicines that are prescribed to patients nowadays, including syrups, capsules and tablets, never existed during the ancient times. Our ancestors used herbal medicines to prevent and treat their medical problems. But since then, people have continued to emulate their ancestors by growing and using different forms of herbs to treat their diseases.

Beekeeping For Beginners
Many people would like to make their own honey but think it's a very complicated, involved process. The truth is that beekeeping is a very simple undertaking and nearly anyone can learn to do it. It's a fascinating hobby that you can enjoy for years, spending very little of your own money but reaping enormous benefits. Things to think about–what will you do with the honey? Is it a hobby or a business? Do you garden a lot? Don't use pesticides if you have bees. Your neighbors may be using them and you can try to bribe them to stop with the promise of honey. Farmers nearby won't stop but bees do build up a tolerance to certain chemicals.
Aquaponics Plants
The word «Aquaponics» comes from two other words: Aquaculture and Hydroponics. Aquaponic systems have three important elements fish, plants and microbes. Fish are the main element in aquaponic systems; they provide the nutrients for the plants. There is no soil in aquaponic, pebbles or gravel can be used. Plants can grow in water rich in nutrients in the tanks. But how do we know which plants are best in aquaponic systems? Well there are many factors that contribute to develop one plant or another like fish tank density, fish waste or nutrient content in the water. So let's learn a little bit more about which plants suits best in aquaponic systems.
Aquaponics in Winter
Aquaponics is a food production system that is increasingly being utilized by people all over the world. This farming technique is a sustainable and environmentally friendly form of agriculture that combines the raising of aquatic animals such as crawfish and snails with conventional hydroponic farming techniques.
Aquaponics Fish
To talk about what are the best fish for aquaponics first we need to know what is aquaponics. Have you ever heard about Hydroponics? Do you know what Aquaculture is? I'm sure you did. Hydroponics and aquaculture are good methods to produce vegetables and fish but aquaponics is the best method to do it because it combines fish and vegetable farming at the same time with no need of soil. Waste from fish works like an organic fertilizer for plants aquaponics uses the best of both methods to become out with better results.
Aquaponics Fertilizing
The aquaponics fertilizing is the most explored topic in the field of organic farming. Aquaponic ponds can be established by extending the hydroponics farms. The aquaponics ponds are the best way to fulfill the grocery need of one's home by organic production of vegetables and fish. Even people have extended it to adopt as the core business, to not only yield an organic diet for themselves but for others too. The benefits acquired from aquaponics fertilizing is not limited, as it could add a good aesthetic value to any place.
Aquaponics Bacteria
With the increasing use and importance of aquaponics in the commercial and domestic sectors, the awareness of these systems has become more relevant these days. We all may be much familiar with aquaponics systems but generally, we lack technical knowledge and factors affecting the performance of these systems. We should know that productivity and performance of these systems directly affect the revenues and the quality of food production from the aquaponics systems. Unlike hydroponics and aquaculture, bacteria play a key role in the aquaponics systems. They are the link between fish and plants, and for the completion of food chain. Hence, taking care of bacteria, especially all those factors that affect bacterial growth is vital.
Aquaponics Algae
Aquaponics is one of several alternative food growing techniques that are being embraced by food growers worldwide. An aquaponic growing system that combines aquaculture (where growers raise aquatic animals such as snails and fish in tanks) and hydroponics (the process of raising plants in water and growing them without the use of soil). In this system of food growing, the water from the aquaculture portion of the system is fed into the hydroponic system. From there by-products are broken down by the nitrates and nitrites in plants, used as nutrients, and then re-circulated back into the system. Aquaponic gardening and farming enables growers to raise healthy food sources while preserving natural resources and the surrounding environment. Despite the many advantages this food production systems gives growers, there are several challenges that growers face in maintaining a healthy aquaponic growing system. A major concern that growers using this food production system need to address is the presence of algae. The presence of algae can have serious repercussions in the health and vitality of all organisms in an aquaponic grow system.
