How much you need to water depends on three things: the type of plants you're growing, the size of the plants, and the type of medium you're using. The first thing to decide is if your grow medium retains or repells water. You'll want your medium to dry out somewhat between waterings, so if you are using a medium that holds a lot of water, you'll need to water less frequently.

Ron, I want to do a hydroponic study with my school. Could the 11 plant system work in a classroom or do we need to build a greenhouse? Do you know of anyone willing to donate a system to my school--Calvary Baptist School, New Orleans, La.

yea i built the 11 plant hydroponic system and im going to get a pump right and ive seen pics of a tube coming out of a container does that connect to the 1/2 inch hose connecter does that bring water up back to flow or is that to give to oxygen to the roots ,sorry but im new to this Ron, Trialbozz here from Victoria BC. I've been reading your discussion board and must say it has answered many questions I have had. I noticed you have shied away from questions regarding aquariums.

Hydroponic systems basically spoon-feed plants their perfect food; they are highly efficient systems. In soil, plants spend a great deal of time and energy growing a large root system to find food and water. Additionally, nutrients in soil must be broken down first before they can be used, if they're even present. With hydroponics, because food and water are delivered directly to the roots, the plant can spend its energy on producing more vegetation, larger fruit, flowers and vegetables.

Water is critical for your body. The great thing about raw fruits and vegetables is that they're rich in pure water. Our bodies are 70% water. You should still drink water when waking in the morning and between meals, because having a water-rich diet keeps you hydrated. It's true that you tend to drink less water when eating a High Raw diet because you're getting plenty of water in your foods, as opposed to cooking it out.

Have you heard of Israel Corporation of Agricultural Applications (I.C.A.A). We are asking proposals from them for developing a controlled greenhouse for commercial use. No but their is a lot of hydroponic greenhouses in the mid-east. Something to do with their soil like not any.

hello, my class is learning about hydroponics. Like how they work and stuff like that.Right now we are growing lettuces the hydroponic way.the way we are doing it is we have a container with stones with our lettuces in it we the lettuces up the top and the roots hiding under the stones and another container with the water and when we put them together the roots dangle in the water and we have a straw to blow bubbles.

Boron is used in many human activities, the most intensive are: detergent manufacturing, wood treatment for its preservation, glass and porcelain manufacturing, soldering, silvering and many metallurgic processes. That is to say, boron is an element in common use in industry and that as such generates considerable water body pollution.

Yes, but only under certain conditions. As with any water feature, there are steps required to maintain biological harmony. JPJ offers training on all these and all other aspects of water features using synthetic rock.

Yes we can. If there any plants in the house that require more water then every two weeks, we can visit to your home weekly.

We will water a reasonable number of house plants or small gardens at no extra charge. Watering larger gardens takes time away from other cats so there may be an extra charge for this.

First of all, most people water outdoor plants with a hose because it is easier and faster and this is almost always fine. For watering frequency, the same guidelines apply as those above. Because there is normally more air movement outside, the plants will dry more quickly, except for very hot, humid conditions, it is safer to water more frequently.

Nematodes live in the soil so, if you can, it is better to apply to the soil. However, if because of dense foliage this is impossible, after application wash them off into the soil with some extra water.
