Growbed up and running!

Testing.  More gravel will be added before planting.

Testing. More gravel will be added before planting. You can see the top of the auto-siphon inside the 4" pipe in the center.

I got my smallest growbed up and running.  It’s sitting on the end of a 100 gallon Rubbermaid water trough with 4 big goldfish therein.  In the background you can see the corkscrew reeds and water irises.  I have planted starts of tomato, pepper, onion, lettuce and a single marigold.  I’ll get pictures of the planted bed in the next couple days and get it posted.

I’ve given instructions on putting this growbed together.  The link is  “Auto-siphon” under Pages in the menu.
