Yes, but not only the arrow keys. If you right-click the brown header on the text container and select "Move" you can then use the arrow keys to move the container up, down, left or right. So you do need the mouse to start the process, then you can use the keyboard. See similar questions...

Even though we have eliminated the soil, plants still require a place for their root systems to develop. A hydroponic media is an inert substance that can provide some support for the root system that has no nutrient value. Almost any inert substance can be used. A few examples include sand, gravel, vermiculite, perlite, LECA (lightweight expanded clay aggregate) and rockwool. See similar questions...

Hydroponics is simply gardening without soil. Soilless growing medias such as perlite/peat-lite or perlite/vermiculite or other combined mixes, have little of the nutrients that the plant would normally leach from the soil. In this respect, nutrient for the plant has to be added in water-soluble form. Hydroponic fertilizer is added to the water containing the minerals that the plant needs to sustain growth.

We thoroughly researched the materials used in our unit. We chose a most stable resin call "P-E-T". This is the same material that has to hold very acidic carbonated soft drinks for months and still remain safe. On the other hand, natural spring water bottling companies also chose P-E-T as their container of choice. See similar questions...
