		Hydroponics ^Votes:0 Hydroponics Merle H. Jensen Department of Plant Sciences, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721 Hydroponics is a technology for growing plants in nutrient solutions (water containing fertilizers) with or without the use of an artificial medium (sand, gravel, vermiculite, rockwool, perlite, peatmoss. coir, or sawdust) to provide mechanical support. Liquid hydroponic systems have no other supporting medium for the plant roots : aggregate systems have a solid medium of support. Hydroponic systems are further categorized as open (i.e., once the nutrient solution is delivered to the plant roots, it is not reused) or closed (i.e., surplus solution is recovered, replenished, and recycled). In combination with greenhouses, it is high technology and capital-intensive. It is also highly productive Read More Go to Site

		The Garden Gate: Air Layering FAQ ^Votes:0 Plant Propagation: Air Layering FAQ Author: Bill Hatcher Layering: A method of rooting a new plant from a branch that is still attached to the parent plant. This method of propagation works with many, but not all woody plants. Simple (or ground) layering: Essentialy, burying a middle portion of a branch in the ground and waiting for roots to form. The process can be enhanced by "wounding" the branch. This can be done by partially breaking the branch, slicing a section out of the bark and underlying area, scraping the bark away to bare wood, or completely girdling the branch (no, that doesn't usually kill it). Chances of success can be further increased by use of a rooting hormone. I normally use iba (I don't remember the long name off hand) and there are others available at larger nurserie Read More Go to Site

		The Growing Edge - Water Culture Systems ^Votes:0 Store Magazine Community Basics Retailers Just for Kids Hydroponics Overview \| Easy System Plans \| Beginner's Growing Tips \| Aeroponics \| Aquaponics \| Glossary of Terms Water Culture Because they lack media to store water and nutrients, water culture systems need a continuous flow of nutrients to prevent drying out plant roots. Thus, the plants are more at risk from power outages and mechanical failures. But without medium, recurring costs and waste disposal are reduced and the balance of nutrient solution is uneffected. They also are more compact and lightweight than media-based systems. Stacked or vertical nutrient film technique (NFT) channels produce an amazing harvest in a surprisingly small space--and look nice too.
