HYDROPONIC TECHNOLOGY FOR ORCHID CULTIVATION

• HYDROPONIC The Ins and Outs of soilless
  gardening.

5
ORIGIN

• Gericke originally defined hydroponics as crop
  growth in mineral solutions,with no solid medium
  for the roots.
• Soilless culture is a broader term than
  hydroponics.
• Hydroponics is always soilless culture but not
  all soilless culture is hydroponics.

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY

• ABSORBTION SOIL AS
• OF MINERALS. NUTRIENT.
• MINERALS OF SOIL
  
• NOMORE IN WATER.
• REQUIREMENT OF SOIL.

7
MEDIA FOR HYDROPONIC CULTIVATION

• EXPANDED CLAY
• All nutrients are
• Controlled in water
• Solution.

8
EXPANDED CLAY,PEBBLES.

• Not reused even
• When they are
• Clean due to
• root growth
• which may
• enter
• the medium.

AN AERO GARDEN USING HYDROPONICS

• AEROPONICS
• A System where
• Roots are
• continuously or
• discontinuously
• saturated with
• fine drops of
• nutrient solution.
