Cultivation Of Hydroponic Plants

The cultivation of plants by means of hydroponics is very friendly with the environment, because it does not need herbsida or petisida which is from chemicals. With this method also do not need too much water like farming with soil media. Using hydroponic planting methods does not require watering on the plants. It makes the vegetables produced become healthier and safer. Although there is no need for soil for the medium, this method certainly not only needs water alone, but also the need for substances as a support for plant growth.

Perhaps for some people planting this hydroponic way sounds unfamiliar. Currently, for the development of the hydroponic method itself has begun to develop. Many communities or groups in the area are training how to plant by hydroponics method.

Below are some advantages and reasons to strengthen your motivation to learn to plant crops by hydroponics, among others:

• Hydroponic cultivation proves to be economical compared to conventional planting on the ground because it does not need to splash water every day because the solution of nutrients / media of mineral solution used is accommodated in the container used, so we live only control.

• Hydroponic cultivation can maximize limited land because it does not require a lot of land, even plant media can be made in storied

• Hydroponic plants do not damage the soil because they do not use soil media and also do not need a large area.

• Hydroponic crop yields can be eaten entirely including roots as they are free of dirt and pests

• Growth of plants faster and the quality of plant yields can be controlled

• To plant hydroponics does not need to depend on the season, because it can be planted anytime according to our planning.

• The environment in which hydroponics grow tends to be cleaner than planting on the ground.

• Hydroponic plants rarely have problems with plant pests and diseases caused by bacteria, caterpillars and many nematode worms found in the soil

• Hydroponic growing land is more flexible, can be planted anywhere such as in a home or in a paved yard.

As plants grow larger, nutritional needs also increase. Therefore at least once a week of nutrient solution should be added. If at the beginning of the mixture of nutrients is; 5ml + 5ml + 1 lt. The second week increases to 6ml + 6ml + 1lt. so on until the plants are ready to harvest.

Do not let the nutrient solution in the bottom bottle is empty because it will cause the plants to die of drought. Bottles containing nutrient solutions are susceptible to moss exposure to sunlight. Therefore, if you want, coat the bottom bottle with dark paper. Or paint in black. But, because I use these bottles without coating, usually at the turn of nutrition, I clean the moss that sticks to clean again.
