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, and with extra care, just a few weeks.
With this kit, you will not only start growing food today, but you will also learn about plant types and successful growing methods. This manual includes tips and techniques to ensure convenient and successful handling.
Why Hydroponics?
- Grow More in Less Space: Maximize your yield in limited areas.
- Save Water: Hydroponics saves up to 90% of water usage per crop.
- Fewer Pests & Diseases: Soil is a major carrier of pests; hydroponics eliminates soil-related issues.
- Efficient Growth: Plants receive direct nutrients in a water-based system for optimal absorption.
- No Soil Needed: Plants grow using sunlight, water, carbon dioxide, and nutrients, eliminating soil dependency.
Equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2
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:
- Deep Water Culture (DWC) systems.
- Nutrient film technique (NFT) system.
- Dutch bucket.
- Gutter Systems & GrowBags.
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.
