2. Kratky method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kratky_method

   The Kratky method is a passive hydroponic technique for growing plants suspended above a reservoir of nutrient-rich water. [1] Because it is a non-circulating technique, no additional inputs of water or nutrients are needed after the original application, and no electricity, pumps, or water and oxygen circulation systems are required. [2]

3. Hoagland solution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoagland_solution

   The Hoagland solution is a hydroponic nutrient solution that was newly developed by Hoagland and Snyder in 1933, [1] modified by Hoagland and Arnon in 1938, [2] and revised by Arnon in 1950. [3] It is one of the most popular standard solution compositions for growing plants , in the scientific world at least, with more than 20,000 citations ...

4. Hydroponics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroponics

   Baked clay pellets are suitable for hydroponic systems in which all nutrients are carefully controlled in water solution. The clay pellets are inert, pH-neutral, and do not contain any nutrient value. The clay is formed into round pellets and fired in rotary kilns at 1,200 °C (2,190 °F). This causes the clay to expand, like popcorn, and ...

5. Aquaponics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaponics

   Aquaponics is a food production system that couples aquaculture (raising aquatic animals such as fish, crayfish, snails or prawns in tanks) with hydroponics (cultivating plants in water) whereby the nutrient-rich aquaculture water is fed to hydroponically grown plants.

6. Plant nutrition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrition

   Hypoxia can affect the nutrient uptake of a plant because, without oxygen present, respiration becomes inhibited within the root cells. The nutrient film technique is a hydroponic technique in which the roots are not fully submerged. Incomplete submergence allows for adequate aeration of the roots, while a "film" thin layer of nutrient-rich ...

7. Deep water culture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_water_culture

   Deep water culture (DWC) is a hydroponic method of plant production by means of suspending the plant roots in a solution of nutrient-rich, oxygenated water. Also known as deep flow technique (DFT), floating raft technology (FRT), or raceway, this method uses a rectangular tank less than one foot deep filled with a nutrient-rich solution with ...
