Ditto!

Except peppers may be a bit tricky this late without a greenhouse.

Hey Cecil,
Is that 60 watt pump one of the Easy Pro rigs? I'm thinking of a few of that brand to keep things rolling, along with O2 when the power fails. Much simpler and lower cost battery backup system then.


I've used Easy Pro mag drive pumps but anymore I'm buying my pumps on Ebay. Just bought two of these:

Just wish the good quality linear air pumps weren't so pricey. I have to buy three of them for the three high schools, as I need more air to run the moving bed filters and will be discontinuing the RBC's.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
