Among modern methods of growing crops, Hydroponics occupies a special place because of the many benefits it offers. It is nothing more than means the cultivation of plants without soil but in water. And the water is enriched with nutrients. The history of the emergence of hydroponics is associated with centuries of research by scientists, as a result of which a huge number of experiments were carried out that made it possible to determine the optimal balanced nutritional composition to ensure the vital activity of plants. As it turned out, the soil environment for crops is not necessary: plants successfully grow and develop if their root system is in contact with an aqueous medium containing all the necessary substances. This fact became fundamental for the development of hydroponics as a new method of crop production.
Through hydroponics, you no longer have to worry about removing weeds, and fighting pests in the soil. Plants that grow in a hydroponic system are healthier and grow faster. Another advantage is that through specific extensions, a hydroponic system can also be supplied semi-automatically or fully automatically. Therefore, it is particularly suitable for those who do not have a large garden, guaranteeing perfect results.
Hydroponics is important as its further development and improvement of which will help solve the global problems of humankind, including the most significant among them - providing food to an ever-growing number of people on our planet.
All these factors confirm the need to search for new, more effective methods of growing crops, one of which is hydroponics.

Thomas Green's passion for horticulture began earlier than most. Growing up on his family's farm in western Montana instilled in him a sense of personal responsibility for growing one's own food and leveraging the gifts of nature. As life eventually took him off the farm and he was no longer surrounded by the endless plains and fields, he pursued a budding interest in hydroponics and aquaponics, not realizing how quickly they would become the obsession of his life's work. Today, Thomas eagerly shares his thoughts and explorations in the world of self-sufficiency with anyone willing to listen. He writes prolifically on maximizing small spaces for big yields, and writes books written for experts and laymen alike. His methods are considered highly effective, and a lifetime of agricultural experience has prepared him for making new inroads into a method of farming Thomas believes will become increasingly important as we move deeper into the 21st century.
