Advantages of hydroponic planting

Hydroponic planting technology is a new type of soilless cultivation of plants, also known as nutrient solution culture. Hydroponic planting technology can be used for hydroponic vegetables, hydroponic flowers and medicinal plants.

Application of hydroponic planting technology

1. Hydroponic vegetables: cultivate pollution-free green food, which is healthy and safe, and is deeply valued.

2. For hydroponic flowers: hydroponic flowers have the advantages of cleanliness, sanitation and convenient maintenance. They are especially suitable for indoor furnishings and are deeply loved by consumers.

3. For cultivating medicinal plants: many medicinal plants are root plants, and the root growth environment is very important. Hydroponic culture, especially fog culture, can provide a good growth environment for the roots of medicinal plants, so the cultivation effect is very obvious.

Advantages of hydroponic planting

1. Good nutritional value, taste and quality: hydroponic vegetables have a short growth cycle and are rich in a variety of vitamins and minerals necessary for human body. The mineral nutrient elements in hydroponic nutrient solution regulate the nutrient supply according to different types of crops and different growth and development stages. Therefore, hydroponic vegetables have high market value, good taste and quality.

2. Soilless cultivation hydroponic vegetables grow fast and timely: due to the sufficient supply of nutrients, under the controllable conditions of greenhouse or greenhouse, all kinds of external environmental conditions for vegetable growth meet or approach the requirements of their optimal growth. And its nutrient supply is sufficient and timely, the environment is well regulated, the plant photosynthesis efficiency is high, and the synthesis of nutrients is more and faster than that of soil cultivation.

3. Saving fertilizer: there is no need to change the nutrient solution halfway. Due to the short growth cycle of leafy vegetables, if there are no major physiological diseases halfway, it is generally only necessary to prepare the nutrient solution once from planting to harvest, and there is no need to change the nutrient solution halfway. Fruits and vegetables have a long growth period. Even if there are no major physiological diseases, in order to ensure the nutrient balance of nutrient solution, it is necessary to update half or full amount of nutrient solution.

4. High economic benefits: leafy vegetables are not easy to store, but they need annual production in order to meet the market demand. The operation of soil cultivated leafy vegetables is cumbersome and requires land preparation, border planting, fertilization, watering and other operations. The soilless cultivation is very simple. Only the seedlings need to be implanted into the planting hole, and the annual cultivation can be carried out in the same site. For example, lettuce can be sown, planted and harvested every day throughout the year, and continuously produced. Therefore, hydroponic cultivation is convenient for crop rotation arrangement and suitable for planned and contract production.

5. Regardless of light and peak seasons, it is less affected by the natural environment: leafy vegetables generally have short plants and do not need to add support facilities, so the facility investment is less than that of soilless cultivation of fruits and vegetables. Hydroponic vegetables have short growth cycle and fast turnover. Hydroponic culture belongs to facility production, which grows in the greenhouse to ensure that it can grow in four seasons under the temperature.

6. Convenient operation and management: after the investment of equipment in the early stage of soilless cultivation hydroponic vegetable planting, the vegetable planting process and management in the later stage are very simple. Moreover, through the utilization of picking equipment, the labor force can be further released, which is also very beneficial to the cost control.
