Roast stuffed Tilapia and gravy,
w/ seaweed and all the trimmings.
LOL :>)
Maybe salt-cured, on pizza...
And I've made a great pork fried rice w/bacon grease and crappie.
Ben Franklin wanted a majestic Turkey as the national bird.
Eagles, he noted, were vultures, opportunists.
How fortunate, given the present state of affairs,
the Dodo Bird was not around for politicians to consider.
I am thankful to this group,
and the neat folks I've 'met' in it!
It is indeed, the best I've come across!

Shalom,
My name is Alon Zimmerman and I live in the Itamar settlement in Israel. I
have greenhouses growing organic tomatoes, strawberies, et al, and this
year I have added a large fish pool, growing carp.
I would like to thank all the people who helped me with various questions I
had in the last year concerning integrated organic fish and vegetable
farming, and worm culture.
I'm just finishing off a very busy tomatoe season [during which I had no
time to think]. I found a good inexpensive Israeli mechanical self
cleaning filter which hopefully will solve the problem of irrigation from
the fish pool.
We are in the process of planning to augment the production of O2 from a
wind generator in the hopes of paying less on electricity- and producing
energy cleanly. For this project I need to find a cheap O2 monitor that
will have automatic control on the permanent electric grid O2 oxygenator.
Any sources.
Please let us know any ideas.
Thank you,
Alon Zimmerman.
P.S.- you can see some pictures of our project at:

They are part of the Verti-gro system. I have 2800 pots in stacks of 10
high. Each pot has 4 corners, so I have about 9500 strawberry plants, and
the rest have lettuce, onions, and some herbs. They have a web site -
vertigro.com
I think the pots were about $1.25 each - I picked them up at the plant in
Atlanta so saved a little frt.

The electrostatic sprayer is very useful in any greenhouse, if for no other
reason than to spray as little chemical as possible when that is desired.
At the demo I saw a fellow just walk down an isle spraying with plants 7
feet high. There was complete coverage on both sides of the leaves, and he
can do his entire system in under an hour. That's 28,000 strawberry plants
! Cool Huh?

Hello, I'd look at omega.com for your O2 sensors and controller. I think the
internet section on O2 is under work but they will sent you out a great set
of cataloges that cover everything, and contain tutorial information too.

call haim anjouni (ag ministry, dept of fisheries)--he will know who is
using what in the country--you'll need something that you have a way of
servicing. you might try the trout farm at dan as well
by the way, whose filter are you using
