- John from www.growingyour... gives you a tour of a vertical aquaponics farm that is using sustainable bamboo towers to maximize production in a commercial greenhouse to grow vegetables and fish year round in Salt Lake City, Utah.
In this episode, John visits Dachnick Domes and Aquaponics, that provides commercial aquaponics solutions and shares with you four independent aquaponics systems that can grow food anywhere.
First, John will provide you an overview of the Vertical Aquaponics system sharing with you more about why the company was founded and how they will release a all-in-one aquaponics greenhouse dome kit that will be powered by the sun.
Next, John will provide an overview of the aquaponics system in this greenhouse,, and then take you on a tour of many of the different areas of the aquaponics system so you can learn how an aquaponics system works and how specifically they are using their growing space to maximize their production of the vegetable crops they are growing.
You will learn about the sustainable bamboo towers that are used to grow in the vertical space above the gravel and float beds that allow them to get 10x more production than without using the vertical space.
John will then share with you the basics of an aquaponics system and the nutrient rich water flows through the system to feed the various vegetables growing in the different areas including: gravel beds, float beds, bamboo towers and soil based containers.
You will see for yourself how food is being grown in all these different areas and some tips of specific crops that can be grown under the different situations.
You will also learn two in-line water conditioners that are being used that may help to increase the health of the vegetables and fish.
John will then take you up into the 15 foot tall cherry tomato plants to show you the abundant amount of tomatoes that are growing under this aquaponics system.
After watching this episode, you will learn more about vertical aquaponic farming and what is possible using aquaponic, aeroponic and other technologies to increase production of fruits and vegetables.

My left ear is highly educated now! Thanks!
oh thank god i though i broke my headphones because the right ear's plastic broke. funny
haha, it actually gave me a start at 15mins when both ears got volume
Just had wiggle my right headphones really hard probably had broken it lol.
Glad this comment was here checked my headphones 3 times lol
Oh man.. I thought it was my headphones
This is a great video. I have an endless supply of large bamboo nearby and it's an invasive species at that location so ecologists will be happy if they see me cutting it. I also feel better about just tossing a renewable bamboo tower that's contaminated rather than trying to sterilize a contaminated pvc tower.
Wow, that's growing perfection with the fabric pots and bamboo towers! Somebody's done their homework.
I think the use of bamboo is particularly great!
I love the vertical Bamboo. It's organic and looks nice.
Keep getting excited about teaching about plants. Keep loving what you do. Keep teaching in detail, everything you say matters and holds value. Keep being you. Thanks for all the education!
This has to be one of the best systems I have seen and I liked how to narrated it. Great job. Absolutely beautiful!
I love how he gets excited about things, I would never be eating as many greens as I do now if it wasn't for John :), its true the bamboo looks like tree trucks!
He looked blazed when showing the fish tank
This is the best example of what can be achieved with aquaponics I have seen. Awesome.
Great share. Just when I thought I'd seen plenty of systems. No one's seen em all.
Great videos. I am learning a lot.
And just to tell you how much of a pleasure it is hearing someone actually pronouncing their "t"s!
Thanks!
Did anyone else notice he pulled out what he called a 'dandelion' plant in the float bed, pointed out the great root system, talked some more, then he pulled out the exact same plant, and called it an 'oak leaf lettuce' pointing out the great root system? lol You gotta love the John, who else shows use these things!
Have to say that your enthusiasm and your knowledge of what you were looking at and how it worked made me want to watch the video to the end. Thank you for explaining the process's for each component the way you did. It was very informative and taught me a lot as to what I would like to implement in a process I would like to begin in the next few months.
John. Been watching your vids for years. You're an excellent teacher
lava stone, structured water, happy fish! amazing! love this system
Home dome systems. That's definitely something I need to get. Make that your marketing name, you'll make millions on the brilliant idea complemented by a brilliant name.
I have watched many of your videos and they are always informative. This one blew me away. Thanks for taking the time to share!
Dachnik Domes and Aquaponics were our very first customers!!! And I will say to you, what I said to them...
"Friends don't let friends grow in plastic"!!
WE are proud to have our Patented Bamboo towers featured in this video!! for more information go to www.natureponics.net or www.boogardens.com Hey John, Feel free to come back anytime and talk to us about all of our Bamboo vertical growing products!!
Most ppl use plastic tubing to feed the bamboo towers, some even use pvc to do this. Do you inform your customers to only use food grade plumbing for the whole system?
the amount of plants AND fish it can grow.. big juicy tasty fish too!!
Been watching your gardening and love the Love Jesus. Like videos,new farm etc. Hope you guys are doing great.
Best channel and farming improvement i have seen in years. Tyvm for all the effort. This is a great idea and will no doubt revolutionize the way we grow things.
I really enjoy this video! It has so much information that I have re-played it 3 or 4 times, each time taking notes. I would like to know more about the fish they are using and about the bamboo towers. Thanks for your hard work!
Smartest thing to do now to protect these greenhouses is to buil them on ultra high concrete blocks- higher than the height of houses so if floods occur the much needed food will be safe and food will not die like most crops have like they are across America and other countries. This is a smart solution.
So great to see the work and innovation happening to grow sustainably, Thanks John!
Finally John, you said you may get you an aquaponic's system when they come out with their kits....I've been waiting for the day, that should be really interesting.
Home systems... The government will try to make it illegal.... Watch. They will say the farms aren't tested for e coli or some stuff
The Phase 2 sounds like an excellent subject for crowdfunding.
They just got it up! www.gofundme.com/commercial-aquaponics-phasetwo
Best most efficient I've seen
Nice Video, What do they use the fish production for? They look like carp
They raise trout and koi!
We sure like those growing tubes better than the pvc ones!
Hey John, I really appreciate your videos and your movement. I was wondering however, why don't you allow the owners of these places to speak in your videos? As someone who works on a commercial system I'd like to hear in more detail why the owners/planners did what they did. That's just my take. Don't mean to sound too negative, I really think you are doing great things.
Owner declined in this situation. Many people do not like appearing in videos. I strive to interview owners whenever I am able and they are willing.
Thanks for the reply. That makes a lot more sense. Good to hear! Hope all is well
Hey there my name is Daniel Wagner from Nature Ponics LLC, the bamboo towers are my addition to this system. I would do an interview to talk about the bamboo side of things anytime!
Hey Daniel, I'm interested in knowing about the bamboo and its implementation as a tower medium instead of inorganic towers. How did you go about tubeifying the bamboo to remove the nodes in between? It might be possible to drill small holes through each node for the water to drain down, but I imagine roots may clog the hole? How did you go about creating the 45° plant inlets? If the holes are circular and not oval, how did you cut the bamboo inlets to fit onto the main shoot?
I ask these because I myself am experimenting with non-toxic/organic means of producing towers. My current design involves four 1.5"² x 5' support poles with 1/8" plywood connecting them to form a rectangular tower. I then drill holes in the plywood and hang net inside and fill with hydroton balls.
I would love to hear about your solutions and design!
Alex Beads why are the videos so long the video also contains so much unnecessary info
My left ear enjoyed it!
amazing setup! make sure you protect your eyes next time with those led lights
Awesome system they have there in Utah. Thanks for sharing, John.
That place is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so envious , 10ft tomato plants amazing
1st Question: Is the water dripped down the bamboo or are there polytubes and sprayers on the inside of the bamboo? 2nd Question: with the pots that are nestled inside the bamboo, do they contain any type of growing medium?
Another great video and tour.
In your opinion, what are the pros/cons of using true vertical vs stacked horizontal [shelves], for indoor growing.
They use both at this farm with a greenhouse, which seems to work great, but I am still interested in your thoughts.
Thanks John! Always valuable information? Transforming my own property Chandler AZ suburbia into a micro farm little by little!!
Wow what an amazing system
it's very similar to how saltwater reef tank is setup (tanks, overflow, refugium, and skimmer/uv filters). I wonder if I can use my older gear to make something similar, obviously not this scale. what kind of LEDs are being used, their watts, and do you know their spectrum wavelength?
Wow this is so fascinating, thanks for sharing this with us
Grow Lillie’s, peonies, and roses in the volcanic rock bed’s. Grow Water crest in the raft bed’s. Grow lettuce, tomatoes, etc in the towers.
I would only add that, when working around LED lights, one must cover/protect their thyroid and they must also wear blue blocker glasses. This is to protect eyes & thyroid from the harmful effects of artificial blue light.
amazing. i really like those bamboo towers

i have a question is there any schools that teach this in the us i realy think this could be the wave in farming
Amani Andrus Certain Midwestern schools cover alternative agriculture like in Iowa, Minnesota, and Indiana.
Learn Organic Gardening at GrowingYourGreens I tried, no responses to calls or any form of contact. I'm trying to get more information on the system as well.
Hey everyone, the best results that i've had was by following the Keiths Ponics Site (just google it) without a doubt the no.1 course i've followed.
Thanks for the video content! Forgive me for chiming in, I would love your opinion. Have you heard the talk about - Patlarny Gardening Expert Principle (should be on google have a look)? It is a great one off guide for learning how to expand your produce with the clever art of aquaponics minus the headache. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my good mate called Gray at last got astronomical results with it.
This is a really cool set up and system :) Thanks for sharing!
Awesome, more filming of the facility and equipment instead of yourself would be great. Thanks for the video!
So can bamboo actually mold and cause contamination to your plants? I use bamboo sticks in my garden so should I replace them every so often? For them to replace all of that would be an arm and leg
Nothing but Dopeness! Keep doing your thing CAPTAIN PLANET! John es numero uno @)
Great video, should be 1080p for the next videos.
I think John sampled what they had growing in the other greenhouse before starting this video. lol
Great video, Aquaponics is a very interesting subject please do more.
_Using this method they grow over 4,000 pounds of organic vegetables per month... with only about 3,000 square feet of space. That's is just about the size of a well sized yard!_
Wow this is so cool! Thanks for the intense walk through very awesome set up!
Fantastic, development and looks like a very well setup commercial setup.
Does anyone know what variety of bamboo the Nature Aquaponics Boo Towers are made of? When I went to the website the said the variety takes 3 years to grow to this size to harvest.
thebunnyfoofoo invasive species
Loved it. For some reason the sound was 1 minute ahead
REAL ENJOYED YOUR VIDEOS!! THANKS!
So how long do the bamboo towers last? I’m assuming it would decompose naturally since it’s pure organic. But how long would it take before they have to be replaced again, aka adding to the cost.
I can’t attest to this particular situation. I only have personal experience with bamboo in Western PA. Outdoor structures usually last a year or two unless there is special treatment used to preserve it. In UT though, I could see it lasting a lot longer because of the drier climate.
Hi John, I really appreciate your videos. On your vertical aquaponics video I was curious to see the inside of the bamboo also viewing how the water was delivered into the bamboo and at what rate. Also the additional additive " iron " when you visited Houston aquaponics did they add iron also? Thanks also at what stage are these additives added?
WOW! Great video John!
I wish their was a study that could analyze "vitamin richness" comparing classic farming, aquaponics ,hydroponics also factoring in the impact on logistics, i.e. 3-7 days old vs freshly picked in a dachnik setup. Do we really get MORE vitamins than store bought farmed?
Love this video! Thank you for sharing!
Looks like a good system for city rooftop gardening. Maybe not so tall?
I didn't catch the kind of fish. Do they market them too?
That looked awesome. Your videos are really great to watch. Cheers
home kit would be awesome
David McAninch - They should crowdfund it. I'll bet that a lot of people would be willing to pay in advance.
would be great for a northern homestead ;)

The company that made the towers in this video makes them - www.natureponics.net/residential/
what are they using to pollinate the tomatoes?
Love the bamboo tower planters !!!
I wonder if this would work with Turtles you could feed the turtles the veggies from the garden so then you would not need to buy any food
Excelente presentación
I can't wait until the backyard things come out 🙂
how do they pollinate the tomatoes??
We are in the process of developing a non-profit urban farming system that will help court ordered recovering addicts learn a trade and work to support the inner-city community food needs. We would sure like to get some ideas from you and possibly consult as we go along. Now we are in the first stages of applying for grants and associating with the local university. Love your energy and videos.

mpreyesmr ,, uh thanks no thanks!
wow this guys backyard gets bigger and bigger with each video... 8o))
The problem with trying to go vertical is that firstly, you will not get as much sunlight exposure unless you use artificial lights (which can be prohibitively expensive), and secondly, and more importantly, the energy required to pump water becomes greater the higher you need to pump it. This means a much stronger pump is required that uses a lot more energy; given that these are individual and separate systems, I would be pretty curious to know their energy expenditure..
That's amazing! Great video.
John, really good vlog and channel. I've sub'd and will be sharing. Thanks for the lesson.
For the past 2 years I've been aching to have this similar .. setup along my side space of the garden suite rental. I am very interested and for a fair price!
another question. you often mention the inputs, but never mention the sources of water.....I want to know; is water coming from local natural wells? the water grid? lakes? springs? other sources???
you do such great work, seriously!
great video! i like how the purpose is being sustainable, but i would like to know about yield/time compared to hydroponics and how you clean this system?
A good video! What is the exact composition of the "gravel beds" that receive the waste water from the fish tanks? Specifically, what kind of gravel?
What about mycoryzae symbiotic relationship with plant roots? What does this mean for overall nutrient content compared to soil grown? How will this affect the evolution of the plant?
Yeah!!! Microphone. Much better. Love your videos!!!
thank you very informative learned alot
love you videos thank you for the tours!
Why can't they show where to buy equipments after the presentation.
Love the field trip video!
HA! I watch you all the time too!
Can you tell me what do you use to take care of pest's in your garden please as I will be building a small ypond
how safe is the food to eat after UV light
I would love to see more videos on aeroponics and aquaponics
I bought Dragon bamboo for things like building privacy and of cores found this video looking up using bamboo with aqua or proffered aeroponics I guess it can be done after all!!!!!! :D which makes me really happy! I could only get seeds of this type it grows 100ft and 12" around it is a monster of a bamboo!
Fantestic video . love your explaination
What are your thoughts on the taste of aquaponic vertical plants versus strictly aeroponic plants that are supplied with fresh water solution with minerals or whatever like Tower Garden
Can you tell me what media are you using inside the bamboo tower to provide nutrient to plants?
Hi John. What is your honest opinion? Is the future of food production going to be aquaponics or soil based growing? I have watched many of your videos and it seems like you prefer growing in soil.
Great detail again brilliant videos.
There are tons of videos showing hydroponics, aquaponics etc. it's inspiring for sure. However, there isn't much to advise how to do a good commercial system. Can anyone suggest a site which can help me set up a small commercial system with components list and building procedure?
