I am growing this in a tub in my living room in Chicago. Any tips are greatly appreciated.

    I’ve heard it’s great as livestock feed because it’s fast and easy growing plus nutritious.

      Yes supposedly it is. The best combination I’ve seen is azolla, ducks, and tilapia which love it. Ducks eat it, poop, and then the tilapia and azolla benefits from their poop as fertilization. You can create an extremely productive cycle doing this, fueled by the extremely fast growing azolla as the base. Then you add solar panels to shade the azolla, and you have excess electricity to use any machinery which helps feed the loop.

        Not a living room friendly set up, unfortunately!
