Hydroponic: Difference between revisions

Line 312:

Many common houseplants are genetically programmed to form roots from cuttings when exposed to constant moisture. Indoor gardeners can use this survival adaptation to grow their favorite houseplants without soil in glass jars or vases.

Plants that grow in water are a great option for kitchens, since they won’t bring in any dirt, or bathrooms, as their overall, propagated look leans minimalist and soothing. Several flowering plants can thrive when grown hydroponically, like orchids, lotus, and paperwhites. They can live this way for their entire natural life.

=====How Hydroponics Works=====

If you've ever placed a plant clipping into a glass of water in the hopes that it will develop roots, you've practiced in a form of hydroponics. Hydroponics is a branch of agriculture where plants are grown without the use of soil. The nutrients that the plants normally derive from the soil are simply dissolved into water instead, and depending on the type of hydroponic system used, the plant's roots are suspended in, flooded with or misted with the nutrient solution so that the plant can derive the elements it needs for growth.
