<< previous page 1 next page>> written by Richa Parrera Summer brings with it other plant problems involving water and nutrient uptake, insect attacks, air circulation, etc. Gardening in summer requires you to check that your plants are growing properly and are not experiencing distress. written by Tom Takihi Soil-less
You see fish nibbling on plants in an aquarium, and seaweeds in the ocean, and you observe—these plants can grow without soil. You call this technology, hydroponics. Hydroponics is also called soil-less gardening, soil-less culture, chemiculture, and water gardening.
Taken from two written by Diana Heyden Indoor enclosed spaces like grow rooms would seem to provide ideal protection to plants against pests and parasites that can cause much harm to crops grown conventionally. It would seem reasonable to believe that since plants are grown in a comparatively sanitized environment without soil, a pest attack scenario would be unlikely, even remote. written by Diana Heyden In addition to light and carbon dioxide all plants, whether they are grown in soil or in indoor grow rooms, need a steady supply of fresh air. While this is achieved naturally in outdoor gardens, fields, farms etc., in hydroponics gardening special means have to adopted to ensure air movement for continual supply of fresh air. This is done using fans blowers and associated equipment. written by Diana Heyden Plants need water for growth and healthy development. If plants are deprived of the required amounts of water, over a period they will whither and die. Unlike plants grown in soil, plants grown hydroponically in grow rooms and indoor greenhouses, are completely dependent on supplied water to meet their nutritional needs. It is therefore important that growers gain a basic understanding of certain vital aspects concerning water supply and plant nutrition. written by Diana Heyden Lighting is of crucial importance to plant growth and plays a key role in determining plant yields. Hydroponics growing equipment manufacturers have, therefore incorporated a wide range of lighting system designs to meet specific requirements of different plants that are grown in indoor grow rooms. << previous page 1 next page>> |
