Plant roots are either suspended in a standing aerated nutrient solution or in a nutrient solution flowing via a root channel (Nutrient Film Technique [NFT]), or they are sprayed with a nutrient solution on a regular basis […]

The majority of texts merely provide a list of nutritional solution formulas, preferred reagent sources, and the weights and measures required to create an aliquot of solution. Although such knowledge […]

The term Hydroponics comes from the Greek terms hydros, which […]
