According to “Hydroponics 101”, plants mature 30-50% faster and produce
30% more than plants grown in soil. Since nutrients are fed directly into the
plant’s roots, they don’t have to work hard trying to obtain the nutrients from
within the soil. Plants can focus on growing tall instead of growing a deep root
system. Produce companies can use hydroponics to grow more in less time.
According to researchers and scientists from the International Journal of
Environmental Research and Public Health.
Disadvantages of Hydroponic Farming : Both passive and active hydroponics
systems depend on electricity to power the different components such as grow
lights, water pumps, aerators, fans, etc. Therefore, a power outage will affect
the entire system.
