subject: Aeroponic System Of Cultivation: An Advancement Of Science [print this page] Nature has always helped human beings to lead their lives with all the resources that it has presented us in the form of gifts. However, we, the human beings, have never understood the usefulness of those resources and in fact have misused them to a large extent. As a result, a number of resources today are getting scarce.Another reason for the scarcity of certain resources is probably the huge increase in the population in the recent years. One such example is the increasing scarcity of soil. Bare land has become so scarce these days that it is even difficult to find land for building houses. Scientists are trying to find out solutions to this problem for many years and one of the most fruitful results achieved so far is the use of aeroponic system of growing crops where one can grow their desired crops even without the use of soil.
In an aeroponic system, baby plants are kept hanging inside a jar where a nutritious mixture known as rooting mixture is sprayed all around the roots. This mixture serves the plant with all types of essential nutrients which the plant requires for growing up. This mixture also speeds up the growth of the roots and thus, developing them at a faster rate and increases the nutrient aeration too which helps in the better oxygen delivery to the roots of the plants. This increased aeration prevents the growth of pathogens like salmonella in the roots.
Another interesting fact about this system of plant growth is the use of cloners which is perhaps the easiest way of initiating root growth. The use of a cloner significantly reduces the chance of any plant disease, making them sturdier as well as healthier. The options of clone tray vary from 45 to 70 to 165. Any aeroponic system that becomes available in the market always comes along with a few machineries like diffuser-fitted air pump, 10 gallon reservoir and a submersible pump.
One of the most important requirements for an aeroponic growth method is a HP5 grow light or a T5 grow light. This light system stimulates the healthier growth of the plants. The plant growth is even enhanced by the elimination of the risks related to the soil bacteria which enhances the health of the plants.
In summary, the aeroponic system provides you with a clean, safe and controlled way to raise your own fruits and vegetables. Along with how much better your body will feel, this solution will provide you with better tasting fruits and vegetables that will amaze your family and friends.
