Study Notes
Hydroponic Systems
- The primary method used in hydroponics for growing plants is providing plants with necessary nutrients through a nutrient-rich solution rather than soil.
Advantages of Hydroponic Systems
- A key advantage of hydroponic systems is increased crop yields and faster growth rates compared to traditional soil-based farming.
Aeration in Hydroponic Systems
- The purpose of aeration in a hydroponic system is to increase oxygen levels in the nutrient solution, promoting healthy root growth and preventing root rot.
