Doesn’t Require Quality Soil
One advantage of hydroponic growing is that you don’t need to have quality soil to grow your plants. All you need is water and the right nutrients, and your plants will thrive! This is especially beneficial for growers and gardeners who live in areas with poor quality soil, or who have a lawn that isn’t suitable for growing.
May Accelerate Crop Growth
Another advantage of hydroponic growing is that it can accelerate crop growth. In some cases, crops can grow twice as fast in a hydroponic system than they would in traditional soil growing. By eliminating the middle-man — the soil — plants grown in a hydroponic system have direct access to all the nutrients they need, which increases crop growing speed and efficiency.
Requires Less Space
By growing hydroponically, the roots don't have to grow as much in order to find water and nutrients. Instead, water and nutrients flow directly towards the plant root through the reservoir system where plants get everything they need to grow strong and healthy.
Uses Less Water
Finally, hydroponic growing uses less water than traditional soil gardening and farming, and is much more efficient than soil-based cultivation. Growing hydroponically reduces evaporation and draining that causes water loss, and the water can actually be reused. What’s more, the nutrients are also easily accessible and don't have to be laboriously added through time-consuming fertilization practices.
