Taro & Ti Home

It has certainly been challenging growing some of the taros I have – many are single specimens with no backups. Up until recently, if a taro was declining, I knew of no way to rehabilitate it – and several of the specimens I started out with years ago have ceased to be. Now, I have formed a Taro ICU to address this issue – and it is working wonderfully. Not only that, but it also is extraordinarily simple to the point of… why didn’t I think of that before?

Here is a brief essay on my entry into growing bananas. None have fruited yet – tho many are very close to fruiting currently. These make for a very easy jungle in any garden bed, and tasty bananas in a greenhouse or where their stems are protected from freezing.

My journey into aquaponics has been a lot of tentative baby steps, and revolves around my taro. It is a necessary step for me to get the full potential I can from some of the taro I grow, as well as enhance the production of the rest. This article describes that tentative beginning – and what the future holds for the path I have undertaken.
