Hydroponics for Climate and Growing Control


CLIMATE
In addition to saving space, hydroponics also allows gardeners to escape one of the most frequent causes of garden failure--weather. You can grow the plants of your choice indoors due to the space saving, this allows you to skirt problems like early freezes, torrential downpours and other weather-related aggravations.
CONTROL
Hydroponics also provides a degree of control that is lacking from
traditional gardening strategies. Although soil preparation does allow one to control the nature of the garden somewhat, pinpoint control with soil is not possible. The medium is not adequately responsive due to drainage or lack there of, and so soil adjustments are usually rather uncontrolled, to a large extent.
That is not the case with the hydroponic garden. When soil is out of the picture, one can directly and easily control the nutrient intake of plants, allowing for maximum efficiency and incredible results. Why arduously tinker with the pH balance of soil, finally getting it just right only to throw it completely out of whack by adding a bag of fertilizer? When instead, you could make sure your growing conditions are optimal with hydroponics.
