Do you want to learn how to setting up a hydroponics garden in your backyard and growing plants all year round.? If yes, then keep reading...

Hydroponics is a technique of growing plants without soil. Many people assume that land is essential to plant growth, but if you've got this book, you probably already know it's not. Using other materials, the different soil roles can be recreated. Soil protects the plant because it provides a physical structure to be grasped by the roots. Tall trees couldn't stand upright on a windy day without a firm grip on the ground. In a hydroponic system, a variety of materials and trellis structures may mimic the physical support offered by the soil. Soil also provides plant growth with essential nutrients.

But using alternative methods, these same nutrients can be supplied. Hydroponic systems have nutrients derived from organic and conventional sources that are water-soluble. Soil can also provide a habitat for critical microbial species establishing beneficial relationships with the roots of plants. In a hydroponic environment, these same microbes can live and thrive. So, if Hydroponics just recreates the soil's role, why not just use the land?

Hydroponics allows us to grow plants with excellent results indoors. Most plants grow well with water indoors, as the feed does not produce large flowers or thickened foil, just adding a quality feeding schedule does not spurn the plant at all with only daylight as a light signal from outside. Nevertheless, because you cannot change our weather or lighting time, you cannot control the cycles of these plants in the first place through artificial light, which provides a constant lighting signal on a timely basis, regardless of the time of year. It was quickly noticed that the lights were on for 16 to 18 hours a day, and if changed to 10-12 hours a day, a blooming period was shifted to that of these plants under' hydroponic lighting.' When it was discovered by pure accident with cold elements outside, the stronger the light source, the greater the growth rate of these plants when the flowering occurred, of course, light alone is not likely to produce high growth or flora unless the air is full of CO2 and the nutrients and minerals are of quality.

Since the Hydroponic industry, to be very truthful, is still small and there are a few local stores to buy supplies, the alternative is on-line garden stores that concentrate on providing hydroponic garden supplies and even ready to use, prefabricated hydroponic gardens for people who cannot wait to get started. And in cooperation with some of the best companies in the industry, however, we are endeavoring to select components, nutrients, and accessories you may need to build, sustain, and maintain the gardens featured in this publication.
