Can a plant grow without soil?
Some plants can be raised in water. It's called hydroponics.
Other than tomatoes what can you grow with the hydroponic method can you grow hydroponic flowers also?
You can grow heaps of plants, i grow plants using hydroponics and i grow tomatoes, strawberries,chillis. Yes you can grow flowers using hydroponics, you can plant them when they are seeds or seedlings. yes, most plants can be grown hydroponically but some species like different kinds of substrate (growing medium) to grow in so you need to check that first but most plants will survive just fine in rockwool using hydro and the correct nutrients. I grow strawberries, lettuce, tomatoes. Remember the soil is there to support the plant and supply nutrients so therefore if you provide a substate to anchor the plant then all you have to do is supply the correct balanced feed for that type of plant.
Is hydroponics appropriate to grow all crops?
No. Some crops, such as tree fruit and nut crops are simply too large to grow economically with hydroponics.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using hydroponics in growing crops?
There are many advantages to hydroponics growing, but I'll just name the basics.the crops grow much faster and produce more fruitthe water need is lessyou can grow anytime of the year, whether its in the summer time in the green house or winter in your garage, which is very easy to do with the right lighting.you get more food per square foot than in the dirtyou can choose how fast plants growwith all of these advantages though, there are some disadvantages.you need to have the right way to grow your plants, otherwise it wont work, and it can be tricky to figure out the right one.you need a good place which can sometimes be a problemyou need to figure out how much fertilizer to use, to much, your plants die, too little, your plants die.basically there are many advantages and i think that if your planning to do hydroponics you should just go for it there are many cool plans for your hydroponics device all you have to do is watch some you tube video's and you ll find the perfect one. its the wave of the future, just go for it!
Materials for the experiment can plants grow without soil?
A hypothesis issimply a sentence that says what you think the outcome will be. for example: I belive plants can grow without water because soil does not carry vital nutrients. (soil carries nutrients but they arent needed)
Can plants grow using sprite?
half some of the time i think yes its grows using sprite
Can plants grow in a pot of water?
Some plants can grow in water, a method known as hydroponics. Plants like pothos, spider plants, and lucky bamboo can thrive in water-filled containers by absorbing nutrients from the water instead of soil. Make sure to change the water regularly to prevent stagnation.
What flowers that grow without ground?
Some Mosses and liverworts can grow on moist rocks and on tree stems. Two broad groups of plants live on other plants with out the need of soil. Epithets are plants grow on a host, including some orchids, ferns, lichens, mosses, cacti, and bromeliads. They take no nutrients from the host itself. Parasitic plants, including different species of orchids and ferns, take nutrients from their hosts, which are often woody plants, but other species of hosts are often used too.
Do some plants grow without seed?
yes some plants grow from bulbs
What are some plants that grow in the canopy?
actually no plants grow in the canopy
How does hydroponics work?
Hydroponics is basically growing plants withoutsoil.Hydroponics offers an innovative solution. Hydroponics, is a technique for growing plants in nutrient solutions with or without an inert medium (as soil) to provide mechanical support. To put in simple words, hydroponics is the science of growing plants in mineral and nutrient enriched water without soil. Sounds strange? Soil isn't what a growing plant feeds on. Instead, it has some select nutrients that plants require to synthesize their food.The most important factor in hydroponics however, is the nutrient solution that must be mixed with water. Standard fertilizers are inadequate, because they lack some of the elements necessary that the plants would otherwise derive from the soil. Specially-formulated hydroponic fertilizer mixtures are required.Terrestrial plants may be grown with their roots in the mineral nutrient solution only or in an inert medium, such as perlite, gravel, mineral wood, or coconut husk.Researchers discovered in the 19th century that plants absorb essential mineral nutrients as inorganic ions in water.In natural conditions, soil acts as a mineral nutrient reservoir but the soil itself is not essential to plant growth. When the mineral nutrients in the soil dissolve in water, plant roots are able to absorb them.When the required mineral nutrients are introduced into a plant's water supply artificially, soil is no longer required for the plant to thrive. Almost any terrestrial plant will grow with hydroponics. Hydroponics is also a standard technique in biology research and teaching.
What is the definition growing medium for plants?
Plants can grow in soil, some grow in water, some grow in sand.
