DON’T YOU JUST LOVE
KITS?
We highly recommend these two new kits if you prefer an all-inclusive
approach to getting started in hydroponics (as opposed to do-it-yourself or
building a setup from recycles):
The Aeroponics 8
Aeroponics systems utilize a continuous, 24/7
micro-misting of the plant roots with highly oxygenated aerosolized Nutrient
Solution. This hydroponics method promotes amazingly rapid and robust plant
growth (probably the most prolific system available today).
The Big Boy Ebb & Flow System
Ebb & Flow systems are the “workhorses” of
the hydroponics industry. Simple, reliable and prolific, they provide
periodic flooding of the plant roots with nutrient solution, followed by
draining back into a reservoir for re-use.

Hydro Tip of the Month-
Ever think of starting a
hydroponics garden in a tent or closet? Now why would you do that?
Well, there are some very good reasons:
- No room otherwise (create some garden space)
- Hide the lights, sounds and earthy odors
- The best reason of all: create a turbo-cooled, climate controlled grow
lab.
Next month‘s ezine reveals our picks for some fun but
prolific hydroponic tent kits. Give ’em a looksee!
We hope you have enjoyed this issue of The Urban Farmer Ezine. Each month, we will bring you another inspiring photo, gardening quote or idea, plus fresh new hydroponics news, techniques & products.
