Owners Recognize Advantages Of Hydroponics

By Marguerite Stanton


If you enjoy gardening, there is a new way of growing plants from which you might benefit. In this newer method of raising a garden, the plants do not grow in soil. By making use of hydroponics Torrance residents have gardens growing in water.

Plants grown in hydroponic medial give gardeners better control of the circumstances often left to nature. Instead of being dependent on nature for sunlight and rain, plants are provided with artificial light. Water is provided by a pump that constantly recirculates the same water to provide the ideal amount of moisture for plant growth.

Typically, these gardens are grown indoors, in greenhouse or an unused corner of a room. Owners have better control of pests. They allow growth of organic produce without the use of any type of artificial pest control, but the plants are not harmed by insects or by other pests.

The garden style may be determined by available space along with the money the gardener wants to invest in materials. Large commercial operations may provide foods for retail establishments or local restaurants. Smaller private gardens supply food for small families allowing them have a few extras for sharing with their friends.

The indoor garden is also exempt from the effects of frost and freezing temperatures. This advantage means that it is possible to supply the table with fresh produce all year long. Imagine a cucumber tomato salad from plants in the owner's garage served during a Christmas day feast.

When gardening with hydroponics torrance residents no longer need to worry about soil quality. Soil is replaced with inert material that holds plants in place while water and nutrients are supplied. This innovative method of gardening allows owners to overcome many of the obstacles of nature.
