i want to do hydroponics for a science fair project but i have some questions. Does it still count as hydroponics if you water your plants once a week but don't use any soil? could i just make a little rack that the plants are clipped to through a water bottle top and have the roots dip in the water? Do i have to have a "system" or is there anything way less time consuming and inexpensive i can do for my project?

Dear fellow hydroponic fans We have a hydroponic barley shed which has been operational for 12months. No problems till now, suddenly we have some sort of snowy white growth attacking the sprouted seeds. Any ideas what it is? How to treat it? We are at present shutting down for a week to completely clean out the nutrient tank and dripper pipes(system).It seems to become active when the sprouts are 3-4 days old. Any help would be appreciated.

I need advice. My name is Kiyon an I am 24 years old, I live in the caribean. There is greate demand for short crops in my country, example tomatoes, lettuce, sweet pepper and cucumbers. I would like to start growing tomatoes hyderponically, but there is no help or info on such. I have a market to tap into which is to provide 5,000 lbs of tomatoes pre week. I need to be educated. A system best suits my climate,size of greenhouse, seed that can be used, equipments and plans needed for construction, training in the field of hydroponics so I can also help others help themselves. kiyonhenry@hotmail.com what ever you offer will be of use to me in developing my business plan. Thank You.

I'm reading a book on hydroponics, and it has an example that I want to try, but I am having trouble finding some parts. The list is as follows: • One length of Marley Flowline UPVC square section-guttering 6.5ft (2m) long by 4.5in (11.4cm) wide. • Four stop-ends for the square-section guttering. • Four support brackets for the square-section guttering. • A length of black UPVC electrical conduit, 0.8in (2cm) outside diameter. (This is sold at DIY stores as ‘PVC round conduit heavy gauge black 2cm X 2m’. • Two tank fittings to adapt the conduit tubing into the UPVC house guttering. These are sold as ‘20mm adapter with male bush black’. An alternative to the conduit and tank fittings could be the downcomer unit sold with the guttering; this is, however, much larger and more suited to the greenhouse system. • A cold water UPVC tank sold as ‘4 gallon/18 litres with lid’. If a larger tank can be accommodated then this would give longer periods between solution changes; the nutrient balance should be maintained using a cF 1meter while topping up with water. • A spreader mat. • An 18W submersible pump with a head of 5ft (1.5m). • A tap to control the flow. Ok so I think I can use stuff from www.warwickshirefascias.co.uk for the guttering, but where the heck am I supposed to get the two tank fittings to adapt the conduit tubing into the guttering?? (it says there will be a hole cut into the guttering for the adapter thing) And what the heck is a spreader mat? I found some stuff for the conduit but I don't think it's UPVC. And where am I supposed to get a tap? I'm completely LOST LOST LOST. Help?
