Default Chia

Here is a photo of my little CHIA patch that I am growing in my DUO kit.
I did not know how close to plant the seedlings and on seeing how the plant grow I could have planted them much closer, but as the photo shows they are doing well.

For those who do not know about CHIA....it is a very good source for Omega3 and is supposed to be a wonderful health food.

My interest is to grow it as feed for my Jade Perch

Here is a link for CHIA seed.

Here is a link for info re CHIA.

How come you can put in 800x600 images and it resizes ours to a maximum of 400 pixels deep?
Can you change the setting in your attachment algorithm to 800 X 600 instead of 800 x 400?

Cheers IanK

Hi Ian,
I have just adjusted the size permissions for the following file extensions to max 800x600 pixals.
It will take a bit more server storage space, so we will see how it works out.

If the siphon will not start there is not enough water flow.....if it will not stop there is too much.

You say you are growing it the the silver perch, but surely they only want the leaves, and you want the seed, yes. Seems the seeds are what is good for you. But I guess you would need to plant a hectre of it for that
