HYDROPONICS:

Hydroponics by it’s most simple definition is the art of growing plants without soil.

(The concept of hydroponics has existed for many years. The hanging gardens of Babylon used hydroponics)....
PRINCIPLES:

The plants are supported either in liquid alone or in an inert media such as perlite, vermicolite, clay pebble or rockwool. They are fed by a nutrient solution; this means that the plants do not have to develop a large root system in order to feed...
With soil-less gardening you can control and enhance all of the plants basic needs and even have the advantage to ensure the root systems are receiving enough oxygen. When growing plants in soil the plant has to divide it’s energy between upward and downward growth...
