Have you ever thought about making your own hydroponic indoor garden? The benefits over traditional soil based gardening are numerous.
Here is a list of advantages and benefits of hydroponic indoor gardening:
1. You will not need to buy any pesticides! This is because the majority of garden pests thrive in the soil, they will not be able to get near to your hydroponic plants.
2. After the initial set up costs, costs are around 20% lower with hydroponic indoor gardens!
3. You can grow more plants in a smaller space hydroponically as opposed to soil based gardening! This is true even though your plants will in fact grow larger, the roots will be smaller as they don't need to spread out to find nutrients.
4. Maintenance time is greatly reduced in indoor hydroponic gardens! Weeding doesn't exist and there is no need to water the plants. In fact, all you really need to do is pick the fruit or vegetables when required.
5. The yield is year round and permanent! This is because you have manipulated the growing conditions to be optimum all the time! When its off season, you can sell the crop for higher prices!
6. You can grow them anywhere; greenhouse, garden, bedroom, attic, cellar, rooftop or window ledge.
7. Hydroponic plants grow on average 40% larger. This is because you have full control over growing conditions and they have constant access to all the nutrients they need.
8. A big problem for many novice gardeners is over or under watering! This problem is taken away in indoor hydroponic gardens as you don't need to water them. This can save you accidentally killing them.
9. For the reasons already listed above, hydroponic plants grow up to 50% faster than other methods of gardening! This has obvious advantages if you're feeding a large family or are planning on making some money out of it!
