For saving space and soil, this method also has several
other benefits, including no soil-borne diseases, no
weeds to pull and no soil to till, run-of-the-mill side
benefits of soil-less gardening.

Hydroponic Gardening Article

Hydroponics is basically a Greek word which associates the method of growing plants using nutrient solutions, without soil is known as hydroponics. Hydro means water and pono means labor.

Gardening

Does thinking of food laced with toxic pesticides and synthetic compounds kill your appetite? That's what industrial food production has brought to our tables - food that is hampering our health and creating havoc with the environment.

Gardening by Greenhouse

There are some plants that need extra heat, and the climate is just not right. For these occasions, greenhouse gardening is a great way to get what you need.

Flower Bulbs

Hydroponic is the technique of growing flowers, fruits or vegetables in a soilless environment. The practice originated from the Aztecs where they used rafts covered in soil from the lake bottom to plant vegetables

The Environmental

Apparently, we can see how nature is treated these days. It is a sad thing to know that people do not pay attention so much anymore to the environmental problems.

Commercial System

Commercial Autopot Hydroponics
by: autopot.com.au

When Autopot System first ventured into the hobby hydroponic market in 1992, many experts were too quick to rule out the system as an effective commercial hydroponic system – simply because it is so unconventional and controversial to the basic “rules” of hydroponics.

The main issue that they find it hard to come to terms with is the fact that crops can be grown very successfully in Autopot System without any run-off and with no flushing! To them it is just no possible. Possible or not, we have concrete evidence that Autopot System produced just as good, if not better, results than the current run to waste system for tomato production.

Smart-pump Set

The Autopot Smart-pump Set
by autopot.com.au/

A pump is used to generate and maintain a working pressure of 10psi in the tubing delivering nutrient solution to the growing modules. Three methods of nutrient dosing are available to work in conjunction with the pump.

A. Manual method – as shown in diagram A page 29. Nutrients are mixed into the water of the larger reservoir tank manually. Topping up with fresh water and adding of nutrients is carried out daily. A larger capacity tank would require less frequent topping up.

B. Venturi method – as shown in diagram B page 29. Water in the 50 liter reservoir tank is kept at constant level by the ball valve connected to mains water supply. When the pump operates, water is drawn from the nutrient bottle and a proportion of the nutrients is sucked from the tanks into the delivery lines.

C. Electronic doser method – as shown page 27 photo of doser and pump set on the bottom right. Nutrients are dispensed into the reservoir by gravity via the two solenoid valves operated by the electronic doser to maintain a preset nutrient concentration.

A low cost 12-volt pump works perfectly with the Smart-valves. It starts pumping when one or more of the Smart-valves open to allow nutrient water into the growing trays. Once the last working Smart-valve closes, the pump will immediately stop pumping. The pump works only when necessary, that is, only when there is a need to refill a tray as dictated by the Smart-valves. Hence, the system is extremely energy efficient. In actual operation, the pump works intermittently - busiest during the heat of the day when nutrient demand by the plants is the highest and quietest during the night when nutrient demand is the lowest.

The power required by the pump is 12V 4 amp DC. The system can be powered from a car battery, a transformer or a solar panel. A Battery is a good insurance against temporary power failure. In areas where power supply is a problem or unreliable, the gravity tank is the best option. The cost of installing the pressure switch pump systems is cheaper than the gravity tank method.

Pump assisted system

As you continue to add more growing containers to your system you may eventually come to a point where you feel that filling tanks has become more of a chore than a pleasure. This can become more apparent when you first encounter a very hot and windy day as the plants are all in a growth cycle. Water that you have grown accustomed to lasting for several weeks can be gone in a few days.


Hydroponics Guide

The added demands for water in these conditions is surprising. Fortunately, provided there is water available, the system copes wonderfully well because it is at this stage that the deficiencies of hand watering or even programmed watering really show up. But when you start to feel that you are there to serve your system rather than it being the other way around, it’s time to consider upgrading to a pressurised system. So we introduce you to yet another ingenious innovation by Jim Fah – the Smart-pump Feeding System. There are several ways nutrient solution can be delivered to the growing modules. It can be fed from a small pressure-switch pump as shown in diagrams A and B page 28 together with different options for nutrient supply and additional dosing of other chemicals such as pH correction fluids.
