The best source I found for Sandponics, unfortunately was r/sandponics.

You could glance at it with https://teddit.net/r/sandponics if the ethical qualms in that didn’t prevent you from doing so.

It’s new to me. This looks interesting: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-15291-7

I skimmed this paper, but it’s interesting.

One thing to note, is that their salinity (ECs) are good, but not great. Generally, you want them under 2 dS/m in growth media. 3-4 is considered fair, but with some limitations, so they might have to refine their desalinization process a bit more, or you know, use freshwater fish.

The N input from the fish manure (I feel weird just typing that) is actually pretty good. About 100 lb/ac, which is the upper limit requirement for most crops. They would most certainly need P amendment, though, and that could cause a lot of issue with their aquaculture if it makes its way into the system.

Doesn’t the salinity mainly come from nitrates in this case?
