What is Hydroponics? A Revolutionary Soil-Free Growing Method for Any Environment

 

What is Hydroponics?

 Hydroponics, is the combination of two words “Hydro” and “Pono” which derived from the Greek texts, it is a method of growing plants in nutrient solution without soil.

In these challenging environmental conditions, this gardening approach is very valuable specially when talk about growing plants in deserts areas, where extreme temperatures, low rainfall, and metro cities where limited fertile soil available to make conventional farming is almost impossible.

Hydroponics offers a reliable solution for cultivating fruits, vegetables, and herbs, regardless of climate, soil availability, or space limitations.

 

Advantages of Hydroponics

 

  1. Suitable for year-round growth of plants anywhere.
  2. Enables material reuse, making it sustainable.
  3. Provides precise control over growing conditions, boosting crop yields and speeding up growth.
  4. Hydroponics contributing in green revolution.
  5. Eliminates the need for weeding and crop rotation.
  6. Reduces water usage in comparison of conventional farming by up to 90%.
  7. Allows dense plantation and vertical stacking.

 

Limitations of Hydroponics

 

  1. Availability of trainers and technicians.
  2. Higher initial costs compared to soil-based systems.
  3. Chances of rapid disease spread, in case site is not properly managed and cured.
  4. Requires basic knowledge and skills for maintenance.
