Hydroponics Gardening
from: Nicky PilkingtonHydroponics was derived from the Greek word hydro, which means
"water" and ponos, which means "labor or water-working".
Hydroponics gardening involves growing plants with their roots
in other nutrient solutions and without soil.
Hydroponics gardening is as simple as ordinary gardening. Both
of them necessitate sufficient light, water, temperature, light,
and humidity. But with hydroponics, no soil is used. Instead a
soil substitute holds the roots while nutrients are carried by
the water. Indoor hydroponic gardening is not that hard and
plants respond well to this method of growing.
This is one of the major considerations in hydroponics gardening
since it sustains the plants. One has to make sure that this
nutrient solution maintains a pH level of 5 to 6 after dilution.
In hydroponics gardening, the plants should be watered more than
three times a day. this is usually done using a pump and timer.
If your hydroponics garden is located indoors, the most suitable
temperature is between 71 to 76 degrees Fahrenheit. Of course,
this temperature may change depending on the different types of
plant you are working on, e.g. tropical plants.
Place your plants somewhere they can receive ample amount of
light. Otherwise artificial light must be used. High pressure
Sodium lights or bulbs are a suitable substitute for natural
light.
Humidity is good. When the room's temperature rises, the air
will be able to hold the sufficient amount of moisture your
plants will need.
A hydroponics system can be fully automated. Since it is
water-based, the gardener has no soil to dig or weeds to pull.
Also, the water can be re-used to prevent wastage.
With hydroponics, an excellent yield of quality plants can be
easily achieved. Home hydroponics systems and DIY kits are are
readily available in most hardware stores.
