Hydroponics is basically a Greek word which associates the method of growing plants using nutrient solutions, without soil is known as hydroponics. Hydro means water and pono means labor. This concept of soil less gardening has been around sine hundreds of years.
Floating gardens of china and hanging gardens of Babylon are two examples of
this. Scientists started this method since 1950 and countries like Germany,
Australia and Holland are using this from many years. In 19th century the
researchers of plant technology came to know that actually it is possible to
garden without soil because the essential mineral need for a plant to grow can
be found in water.
An active hydroponic system moves the nutrient
solution using a pump. While the passive system works on the capillary system.
Passive systems are too weak to supply enough oxygen to the root system for
maximum growth. Another method of characterizing hydroponics is recovery or
non-recovery. Recovery systems or re- circulating systems reuse the nutrient
solution and non recovery systems don't use them. Pumps and moving parts are not
used in this technique.
While the nutrient film technique is this
system. In this root system is aerated and supported. The principle that applies
to soil fertilizers also applies to fertilizers. It contains all the nutrients
that the soil fertilizers contain. Plants with PH range 5.8 to 6.8 can be grown
hydroponically. The PH of the growing plants can be checked much easily than
that of the soil.
If you want to build Hydroponic System on your own
then fist of all build the system on your own. When you understand the basics of
the system and when you gain some experience regarding this then start growing
your own system. This will help you a lot. You will be able to use the parts of
this system when you will build your own gardening system. Building own system
can be rewarding but sometimes it can be very frustrating. You must be patient
while doing so.
