Hydroponics Systems


Hydroponics Systems

Hydroponics Systems


Hydroponics systems must be geared to the needs of the crop you grow. They can be active or passive. Active hydroponics systems let nutrients pass over your plant roots. This means you have to use a large-sized root zone medium like vermiculite or perlite. Air circulation is better in active hydroponics systems because one is making more efforts towards circulating the solution. In passive hydroponics systems, plant roots are suspended into nutrient solutions, but they sometimes need anchorage and support as they grow.
