Well done Matthew Moss

The pilot project with Matthew Moss High has been a great success. They now have three tanks and are passing on what they have learnt to Brimrod Primary School

Mobile Aquaponic Bioshelter

click here for more information and to get involved

Hydroponics4Life are proud to own the worlds first mobile aquaponic bioshelter. We will be visiting schools around the country showing people how aquaponics can change the way we grow food and try to help change the lives of kids in the developing world.

Does your school have a Bioshelter?

Bioshelters are solar greenhouses which enclose fish ponds, food crops, soil life and insect communities and they will fit into any spare space available.

Biology Curriculum

• Bioshelters and plant growth.
  A more exciting way to look at growth in plants using aeroponics to enable experiments to take place at an accelerated rate and tests to be performed within the classroom and cover the basic principals
• Plant Population.
  Taking a deeper took into the reason for plants and how and why they reproduce in their various environments and the devastating potential of disturbing the natural balance.
• Plant hormones.
  Investigating the amazing regeneration of plants and their ability to be cloned bonsaied and supercharged.
• Genetics and clones.
  Alternative look at selective breeding, GM crops and time old farming techniques combined with the latest advances in science.
• Recycling energy.
  We can use the waste we create every day to sustain ourselves indefinitely by recycling. Using aquaponics to demonstrate how your own eco system will allow us to live without leaving footprints in carbon.
• Accelerated plant growth and food production.
  Looks at how integrated science allows to extract exactly what we need from nature in a way that it is of benefit to the natural cycle so we no longer have to use dangerous farming and fishing techniques.
• Looking to the future and changing our ways.
  Challenging some of the methods that have become acceptable over the years and highlighting the need for change.
• Natural habitats interdependence.
  And our continued ignorance adds to the devastating effects of the rainforests and other natural habitats, destroying unknown species and medicinal plants.
• Global Warming and ecological capacity.
  We are running out of time to save the planet the time for planning¬ is gone the time for action is now.
• Population explosion.
  With the ever growing increase in the world's population we need some answers to the questions and solutions to the problems but most of all a positive attitude because by changing our thinking we can change the world.
