In a Drip system, the nutrient solution is delivered to the plants through drip emitters on a timed system. The timed cycle flushes the growing medium, providing the plants with fresh nutrients, water and oxygen as the emitter is dripping.
The emitters are usually scheduled to run for approximately 5-10 minutes of every hour. In a drip system, the plant roots are most commonly grown in a medium of perlite, grow rocks or rockwool. The drip system is often used in commercial hydroponic facilities that grow long term crops like tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. Listed below are some examples of Hydroponic Drip Systems.
