It is true that the establishment of a hydroponic gardening is a fairly complex project, hydroponic culture is a fascinating topic and one that can benefit from dividends. Better yet, it is an environmentally-friendly farming, and on small surfaces, even tiny apartment balconies can be adjusted.
Basically, what it is growing plants without soil, but with many nutrients and water.
People are practicing hydroponics on and off for ages it seems.
William Frederick Gericke, an American professor of German descent who worked at Berkeley University, said that the term “hydroponics”. This was the first in Time magazine March 1937 Announced! He also wrote quite a legendary book on the subject, The Complete Guide to Gardening miserable. The way did Gericke was:
* Make a shallow bowl made of wood, metal or concrete
* Waterproof hole or container
* To the addition of water and nutrients are especially chemicals that plants need and get the soil – calcium, magnesium, potassium, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus and various minerals.
* Above the hole or container with gauze
* Then take excelsior (fine pine shavings curled) and peat on the wire
* Plant the seeds in the Excelsior, so the roots would shoot down into the water.
Dr. Gericke first tanks in his backyard in Redwood built him covered in tar. The tanks, which he experimented with in Berkley were quite large, 0.01 acres per hectare or.004.
After the Time article: “Tomatoes are Dr. Gericke Joy”. By using the hydroponic method in greenhouses, with an electrically heated water, he was able to grow tomatoes for 8-9 months a year.
In an article in The Rotarian magazine in 1939 found that one plant had died, came to another. Sun onion pricked their heads through cucumber vines, while the pressed potatoes tomato – vegetables hydroponically grown one with his incredible success.
His vision was for the desert areas in the U.S. market for hydroponic gardens, creating “bathed in sunlight and free from vermin.”
Early hydroponic systems were very expensive, especially if done on a large scale under glass with power. But includes the development of plastics, tunnels, and the dripper, it is becoming increasingly popular, not only for commercial growers, but for people at home, a hobby they want to really benefit.
The decisive factor is that the right amount of tomatoes requires light, moisture and nutrients. It is important to maximize your greenhouse tomato plants from north to south, the flow of natural sunlight position. Hydroponic nutrients are available from good garden centers and nurseries.
