Having an Aquaponics Garden Will Save You Time and Money When Compared To a Soil Based Garden.

Most plants that we eat are grown in soil Many of these plants such as letttue or tomatoes need to get their nutrients from fertilizer. Fertilizer is used to add nutrients to the soil to help them grow better. Another type of farming is called hydroculture.
Hydroculture involves growing plants in water. The roots of the plants get their nutrients from the water and a grow bed. Two types of hydroculture are hydroponics and aquaponics. To understand the difference between a hydroponics system and an aquaponics system we first must understand want each system is.
In a hydroponics system the plants are grown in water where the plant roots receive their nutrients.
The nutrients for the plants must be added as there is no source of nutrients created in the system itself. These nutrients come from the waste water created by the aquatic life in the fish tank.
The amount and type of nutrients can be controlled in this system depending on the variety of plants you are growing. This is a closed system with regards to the water, as it is reused. Because this a closed system no nutrient waste is put into the surrounding environment as in traditional agriculture.
A hydroponics system generally produces a higher yield and can be implemented where it is not possible to grow crops in the ground. However the cost of nutrients and fertilizer to support the growth of the crops in this system is high. This is because the production of the necessary nutrients and fertilizers requires a large amount of energy.
The aquaponics system also grows plants in water where the plant roots get there nutrients. However the aquaponics system used two systems. It combines a hydroponic system with an aquaculture system (fish and other water animals). The effleunts or waste produced by the fish accumulates and eventually makes the water to toxic. The water is therefore sent to the water in which the plants are growing. The plants in the hydroponic system filter out the toxic by-products and use them as nutrients. The clean water is led back into the aquaculture system. In this system the plants receive there nutrients from the fish and is a closed system. This reduces the cost of fertilization substantially when compared to a stand-alone hydroponics system.
Both systems recycle the water and thus reduce the need for water when compared to plants grown in the ground.
This type of growing food will allow you use very little water and give healthy plants without using costly chemicals and growing agents.
Because plants grown in an aquaponics system get there nutrients from an aquaculture system, not as much expensive fertilizer needs to be introduced into the hydroponics part of the system.
However the aquatic animals which provide the nutrients needed grow food in water with a soil based grow bed..
Deciding which system you choose to use to grow plant requires understanding how both systems work.
Both have advantages and disadvantages. Either way you will get a higher yield of crop and generally have less impact on the environment.
Dear Gardener,
Imagine you knew a secret about growing plants in a break-through new way... to the outside world your organic garden or farm would seem almost "magic", Why? Because people almost never see you working in it!
While every one else works hard at planting, weeding...more weeding..., watering, fertilizing, composting,... and more and more weeding... You're gardening from the comfort of your hammock.
What's more... your plants grow twice as fast, and you can grow up to ten times more of them in the same area of space as your neighbors do. That means, if you're growing lettuce, and have 10 square feet of space... your method grows as much lettuce as someone would with 100 square feet of space!
If this sounds like a dream, you may be shocked to discover that farms and home gardens like this already exist... and you can do it too.
If you want to transform your gardening, and possibly even your life forever, get a cup of tea or coffee, sit down, and spend the next 5 minutes reading this short story, this will be the most important letter you read this year, here's why:
"Break-Through in Organic Plant Nutrition Leads To Shocking Results... "
In the past several years, researchers from the University of the Virgin Islands have discovered and experimented with a break-through new way of growing plants organically .
The process is revolutionary because with it your plants grow 100% to 50% faster, and you can grow up to TEN times the plants in the same amount of space. How does it work? Basically, it turns normal gardening on organic super-drive as it feeds rich ALIVE natural nutrients to your plants 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
In 2006-2007, the 'secret' slowly started to leak out and people started catching on... converting gardens and entire commercial farms to the system.
"4,000 Pounds of Organic Vegetables Per Month, With 1/10th The Space... The Gardening Revolution Begins!"
Best regards
