Hydroponics

Hydroponics

Hydroponics is a new age method of growing plants without soil, but by using mineral nutrient solutions in an aqueous solvent usually water. This soil-free cultivation technique enables plants to grow in a controlled, water-based environment, offering thus enabling a efficient and sustainable method of crop production. Hydroponics is mainly used in indoor farming, greenhouses, and vertical farming systems, for faster growth rates and higher yields.
