What are Hydroponic systems?
Hydroponic systems are a method of growing plants without soil. Or more strictly with ‘working water’, but it mainly means any system which does not use soil.
There are several different hydroponic systems. These include
- deep water culture (DWC)
- nutrient film technique(NFT)
- aeroponics,
- flood and drain or ebb and flow
- wick
- and the drip system.
All of these systems can be used indoors and outside. Although using some of these outside will entail covering the system to prevent dilution of the nutrient system.
