Thrips Resources

Looking for information on thrips, we can help.

A plant can be stressed when it desires nutrients but can not get any. With hydroponic techniques, plants are never stressed. Air, nutrients, and sunlight are always available to the plants with a hydroponic setup. Sunlight is readily available when the garden is located outdoors; however, when a garden is indoors artificial lights can be set up to simulate natural sunlight. Sufficient air circulation needs to be setup for indoor setups as well or the roots may die. With a good air circulation setup, the air may also prevent any disease which may be caused by conditions which are too moist.

Trail and error is the universal method towards improvement. A good way to improve is to keep a journal which monitors certain aspects of the hydroponic setup. Things to jot down would be the daily EC and PH levels, how often proper maintenance is preformed, what type of pH changers were being used, and of course how successful the plants grew. Combine new solutions to past mistakes as well as already established positive factors to improve your harvests.

Though the idea seems rather unpractical, its results prove that it may well be the future of gardening as we know it. It uses very advanced techniques and utilizes the understanding of essential chemicals needed for high yields and faster growth. Although it uses only water and no soil to grow, hydroponics really uses less water per yield then regular soil growing.
