What is Hydroponics?
Think of plants like people eating meals. Normally, plants “eat” nutrients from the soil, like getting their vitamins from a plate of food.Hydroponics is like giving them a smoothie with all their nutrients already blended. No dirt, no digging, just the perfect mix of water and nutrients, so they grow faster and stronger.
What Plants Need to Grow?
Plants are like humans, they need food, water, and energy (light) to grow.Food (Nutrients)
In hydroponics: We mix nutrients in water so plants “eat” everything they need
Water
In hydroponics: Plants sip water constantly. Too much or too little can make them sick
Light
In hydroponics: Plants use light to make food for themselves, like our energy from sunlight
