Using nutrient-rich water solutions instead of soil, this innovative method offers numerous advantages. This includes increased crop yields, conservation of water resources, and the ability to grow crops in areas with limited arable land. By eliminating the need for soil, hydroponics reduces the risk of soil-borne diseases and pests, while providing precise control over nutrient delivery and environmental conditions.

Our Unit

Our hydroponics unit was carefully researched and designed by our prototyping team over the course of a year. The final design is a 5-quart deep water reservoir system with LED growth lights that can grow leafy greens like lettuce in 4-6 weeks. 

 

Fun fact:  We use coconut fibers as our growing media!
