Should I go hydroponics? Pros And Cons

Should I go hydroponics?

Consider the advantages and disadvantages both of hydroponics as a total working system and of the advantages over soil – that is, is hydroponics better than soil?

The disadvantages of hydroponics boil down to:

  • Expense – hydroponics can cost a pretty penny, especially in the beginning
  • Energy and resource usage – the hydroponic gardener relies on equipment and electricity rather than letting nature do most of the work.
  • Knowledge level – you do need to do your research and know what you’re doing to build a successful hydroponics garden.
  • Diligence – plants react extremely quickly to nutritional fluctuations. You’ll need to stay on top of monitoring your garden.

The advantages of hydroponics gardening are:

  • Growing plants in water saves your back. You do not need to prepare any soil or remove any weeds. Physically, hydroponic gardening is much easier on your joints than soil-based gardening.
  • Hydroponic gardening uses fewer pesticides and is less toxic.
  • Hydroponic gardening requires less space.
  • Gardens grown in water can be portable, moving indoors or outdoors, as the weather permits.Should I go hydroponics?

  • Hydroponically grown plants have a greater yield than soil-grown plants.
