Hydroponics is the method of growing virtually any plant without embedding it in soil. A few centuries ago, botanists realized that plants absorb nutrients via the water that soaks the soil around their roots.

Put simply, hydroponics is the art of growing plants without using soil. To do this, hydroponics equipment generally consists of a reservoir which contains nutrients, and some sort of device which carries this nutrient solution to the plants.

Just like every gardener is different, there are also several different ways to use your hydroponics equipment. Take a browse through the options below to find a hydroponics method that is suited to your personal preferences and the needs of your crop.
