HYDROPONICS
HYDROPONIC CULTIVATION WITH PERLITE
What is hydroponic agriculture?
Hydroponics or hydroponic agriculture is a method used to grow plants using mineral solutions < /strong>in an inert medium, expanded perlite, replacing the agricultural soil.
The roots receive a nutritious and balanced solution dissolved in water with all the essential nutrients useful for the development of the plants, which grow in the inert medium provided by the expanded perlite.
Advantages of hydroponics with expanded perlite
- Greater control over plant nutrition.
- Higher plant performance, more production.
- Equality between all fruits, smaller difference in size/caliber.
- High water savings and better oxygenation of the plant.
- neutral and natural PH.
- Low soil/growing medium temperature.
