Hydroponic - the method of growing plants is not in the soil, but in the nutrient medium. At the same time, they need to be poured relatively often or constantly, since the root system lacks minerals that are contained in the soil. Coconut fibers, gravel or crushed stone are used as the basis. With the help of these materials, the sprout is held in the tank through which the nutrient fluid circulates.

The main advantage of hydroponics is that in small areas of the Earth, you can grow a huge amount of vegetables and greenery, even if the soil is influenza. Use porous materials as the basis, they will allow freely circulating the air inside the container with the plant. Purchase special fertilizers for hydroponics, the usual nitroposka is not suitable, as it should contain the most common minerals available in the soil.

All for hydroponics can be purchased in a specialized store or make independently. To make a system for growing plants, two containers of different size are necessary. It can be ordinary plastic pots. In the container of a smaller size, it is necessary to drill holes and fill the tank with a clay. The second capacity should be a whole - this is a tank for a nutrient solution. Insert a smaller pot into a larger capacity and type water into it. Constantly replenish the tank with a nutrient solution. From time to time, the roots must be in a liquid claympace. But sometimes drain the water, not allowing complete drying of the clay.

In this way, you can grow:
greens;
tomatoes;
cucumbers;
pepper.
It is not recommended to grown by hydroponic plants with a tuber root system, it often rot under high humidity. Do not land in the hydroponic plants with leaves that often fall. In this case, the entire system will often be cleaned, since the roting leaves poison the solution.

If you need to go for a while, do not worry, nothing will happen to your plants. Fill the containers with a nutrient solution - and you can go on vacation. Some tanks must be replenished only 1 time per month. There are special automated systems with humidity and temperature sensors. When the temperature decreases, heating is turned on. When the amount of water decreases, the valve is triggered, and the container is filled with nutrient fluid.

You can transplant your favorite flowers to hydroponics. To do this, moisten the soil and remove it together with the stalks and roots of the plant. Carefully wash the roots from the soil, it is impossible that the particles of the Earth fall into the nutrient solution. Cut all the damaged areas of the roots and immerse them in the ceramzit. Fasten the plant with the substrate and fill the tank with the nutrient solution. Replanting plants need as they grow.
It is easy to grow a hydroponics, it is necessary to monitor the level of humidity of the substrate and to replenish the tanks with nutrient fluid. In many developed countries, home plants and greens are growing in this way. And entrepreneurs are engaged in the cultivation of vegetables not in the ground, but in the nutritional solution.
