Product Details

At Harraz Farm & Garden we encourage growing herbs and vegetables at home. Excluding most fruits and tree growing crops, there are hundreds of different herbs and fast growing vegetables you can watch evolve from seed to your salad bowl. With minimal care, it can  take 2-3 months to bring your favorite greens to your table. With extra care, that time period could  be reduced to just a few weeks. 

With this kit, you will not only start growing food today, but you will also learn about the different  types of plants and successful growing methods and tips. We have enclosed a few tips and  methods in this manual to ensure convenient and successful handling and results.

Why Hydroponics? 

Hydroponics means in less space, grow more plants and harvest more yield! Hydroponics means saving up to at least 90% of water usage for each crop!! Hydroponics means less things that can mess with your plant, many pests are carried in the soil,  so growing without it gives you a more hygienic growing system with fewer problems & diseases. 

Hydroponics by definition is a method of growing plants in a water based, nutrient rich solution,  it is a soil-less growing method, instead of using soil, the root system is supported by using an  inert medium such as Rock Wool (There are other growing media to be used), and the roots are  submerged in water rich with needed nutrients. 

No Soil? 

In order for plants to grow, a process called photosynthesis is needed, the plant uses sunlight  and chlorophyll which is inside their leaves, to convert carbon dioxide and water into Glucose and  oxygen 

find equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2 

 Soil is not mentioned at all in the above equation, then its not really essential to any part of the  growing process, what the plant really needs is Air, Water, Sun and Nutrients.

Types of Hydroponics 

There are various types of hydroponics:

• Dutch bucket. 
• Dripping systems. 

In this Kit we use DWC, which is the easiest to handle given the scale of home growing.  To start growing your plants; please refer to the manual for a description of all included items,  uses and steps.
