Home hydroponic vegetable growing

In recent years, we have witnessed a global trend that includes a significant expansion in urban and industrialized areas, at the expense of many agricultural and natural areas, as a result of the continuous growth in population and a general preference for living in the city. In small and densely populated Israel, this trend is even more significant and leads to a significant reduction in the areas available for growing agricultural vegetables, a reduction in the green landscape, and a significant increase in production prices, also due to climate challenges and a reduction in resources available for various crops. All of these and more often lead to a situation in which we are forced to pay high prices for agricultural produce (such as vegetables), and to compromise on sprayed crops that are not necessarily healthy. Therefore, it can be seen today that more and more individuals in the urban environment are choosing to start growing agricultural produce themselves and for their own personal use, using the hydroponic method.

Hydroponics is an example of an effective method in itself, for growing nutritious vegetables (spices or vegetables) in a closed pipe system, based on water and fertilizer (nutrients) that swirl in a closed circuit. The advantages of the method make it very suitable for a dense urban environment, as the various crops grow more quickly compared to a soil substrate, and the establishment of the garden itself is done on a smaller area compared to a regular vegetable garden. Another distinct advantage of the method is the high availability of water and nutrients according to the plant's requirements, along with significant savings in fertilizer and irrigation compared to a regular garden, since there is reduced water loss in the closed hydroponic system. While in regular agricultural crops, a variety of chemical sprays are used that may be harmful to health, hydroponic crops are usually organic and are characterized by a greatly reduced number of pests, due to the absence of a soil substrate, which is the source of most pests in agriculture.

Company Vinaya Green Offers various hydroponic systems that require minimal maintenance, and allow you to grow various crops, fresh, healthy and nutritious, which can be picked straight from the system to the plate. For example, crops such as lettuce, green onions, parsley, tomatoes, cucumbers and more! Among the existing systems, you can find a high-quality system that can be placed in an open environment with sunlight, or in the home space with appropriate grow lighting.
