And yeah, let's get an update on what you've been up to. Can I first say welcome, Steve, man? Welcome to the show, Amigo. Good to hang out, man. Yeah, thank you guys for having me. I bumped into Scotty not too long ago, and that's always good to be on the show. I listen to you guys pretty religiously, and I always love being on. So thanks for having me on again. It means, Steve, I have a special bond, man, because Steve is from my hometown, man. Like where i was born and shit man so old school man

love it yep and i also didn't mention yeah steve has been i don't know you how long you've

been in aqua you're like an authority on aquaponics basically and and really aquaponics and

that's of course why we like to hang and have you on the show so uh what by, the only one I know, so you've got that monopolize, my brother.

It just gets me thinking how I would want to grow cannabis like that because I want to, as my growing career goes on, try as many styles as possible. But I'm intimidated by, oh, man, how much volume, what do I need? Do I need to get

a hundred gallon reservoir and these fish and how long it'll take to get going? Are we simplifying

that process or it's hard to because it's just nature and time? No, absolutely. You can do it

as simply as just a normal flood and drain table with a normal sump and have a few fish in the

bottom of your sump and, you know, just adjust your nutrients accordingly with your normal setup you already have and as long
