Hydroponics

Hydroponics is a method of growing plants without soil, in which the roots grow in a nutrient solution or in growing media such as mineral wool, coconut fiber, or perlite. It allows for very precise control over fertilization, watering, and growing conditions. As a result, it is possible to achieve very high and consistent yields. Hydroponics is now the standard in many modern tomato farms. Beginners should start with a proven, simple system and regularly monitor the nutrient solution level, its pH, and EC.
