Garden Hydro, the only way to grow!

Published by at 2:36 pm under General Hydroponics Information

Everything you ever wanted to know about garden hydro, but were afraid to ask!

 

Garden hydro is just a quick way to say gardening with hydroponics. The hydroponics part is growing plants without soil.  To garden hydro you use water and nutrients to grow and maintain the plant, instead of soil and water.

 

The ancients used to garden hydro, have you ever heard of the “Hanging Gardens of Babylon? That was a hydro garden in action! The gardens were considered a wonder of the ancient world. They were using the same concepts as we use today.

 

You don’t have to be extremely wealthy to garden hydro. I garden hydro all the time, and I am in no way considered “wealthy”! You can purchase a kit and be ready to start your hydro garden in an afternoon. Once you have your system set up it can be used over and over again! All you need is nutrients and water.

 

To me the real pay off to a hydro garden is fresh produce anytime of year. Imagine, it’s the “dead” of winter and you walk into your hydro garden, and pick a vine ripened tomato to have on your sandwich or with your dinner.  It is like a miracle!

 

At that time of year the only tomatoes you can get in the stores are greenhouse tomatoes. They bear no resemblance to a garden tomato that is vine ripened. Those tomatoes are picked green and gassed to make them red, they have no tomato taste. They are nothing like your garden hydro tomatoes!

 

I speak from experience, once you have tasted a tomato grown with garden hydro; you will never want to eat another store bought tomato. Just give it a try and you will know what I mean. Garden hydro is the only way to grow!
