Hydroponics is the cultivation of plants without using soil. Hydroponic flowers, herbs, and vegetables are planted in inert growing media and supplied with nutrient-rich solutions, oxygen, and water. This system fosters rapid growth, stronger yields, and superior quality. When a plant is grown in soil, its roots are perpetually searching for the necessary nutrition to support the plant. If a plant's root system is exposed directly to water and nutrition, the plant does not have to exert any energy in sustaining itself. The energy the roots would have expended acquiring food and water can be redirected into the plant's maturation. As a result, leaf growth flourishes as does the blooming of fruits and flowers.
As population continues to increase, so will be need for housing and urbanization. Lands that ought to have been used for farming will be used for housing and other infrastructure and in a short while, sustainable food production will become a serious challenge. Hydroponics is the solution. Hydroponics is the future.
