I am starting my setup today... I'll report back in 6 months or so...
--7/1/2011
Not sure who started their setup or when, but i have a setup i started a month ago... My plant is inside, under a small Walmart grow light. It has doubled in size in the past month... I have about 8 plants in one pot currently, but next week i will be repotting at least three of them. I plan on comparing hydroponics, dirt and Aquaponics with a Betta... I'll report back; but so far, Coffee plant loves hydroponics.

Been running the test for a year now. The Aquaponic with Betta didn't work too well. It more had to do with the small container and hte need to clean it constantly. Maybe if i fed it less it wouldn't have been so bad. So, that fish became my son's pet, the plant became my second hydro coffee plant.
First off, all plants are in the same window location at my office, so the same amount of light and all that.
-I also slimmed down the plants to as followes:
i have one Aerobic Coffee plant in dirt in a self watering container.
-I have one Aerobic Coffee plant in a green transparent water pitcher (converted for the purpose of hydroponics). This allows everyone to see the roots, but the green bottle stops algae from growing. This is my show plant...
-I have one Aerobic Coffee Plant in a large non-transparent pot with a netty lid made for hydroponics.
So, here are the results after year one, Hydro plants are denser with more branches. The leaves are smaller, but there are more of them. The dirt plant is only slightly taller, and the branches are more spread out. The Leaves are larger and has a larger canapy diamater.
Coffee plant usually don't have berries untll they are 3 years old, so two more years to see if there is much differnce in the end. I will post back with any changes or annually... which ever comes first.

Sure you can
corn is the easiest but pretty much anything
To effectively grow garlic hydroponically, you will need to provide the right conditions such as a nutrient-rich water solution, proper lighting, and adequate spacing for the garlic plants. Additionally, maintaining the pH levels of the water and ensuring good air circulation are important for successful growth. Regular monitoring and adjusting of these factors will help you grow healthy garlic hydroponically.
Root vegetables can be grown hydroponically by using a nutrient solution instead of soil, providing adequate support for the plants, and ensuring proper lighting and temperature conditions.
It means to grow plants without soil, in a liquid medium containing enough nutrients to maintain the plant.
To grow garlic hydroponically, you can start by selecting healthy garlic cloves and placing them in a hydroponic system with nutrient-rich water. Ensure the cloves receive adequate light, water, and nutrients throughout their growth cycle. Harvest the garlic when the leaves turn yellow and dry.
Plants can be grown both hydroponically and in soil. In hydroponic systems, plants grow in a nutrient-rich water solution without soil. In traditional soil-based gardening, plants grow in natural soil with nutrients available for uptake. Both methods have their advantages and can support healthy plant growth.
yes you can grow coffee beans in Ohio
Unfortunately, it is too cold to grow coffee in Indiana. Move down south to more tropical locations, then you can grow coffee.
To successfully grow cilantro hydroponically, you will need a nutrient-rich water solution, a pH level between 6.0 and 6.5, adequate lighting, and proper spacing for the plants to grow. Ensure the cilantro receives at least 6 hours of light per day and monitor the water levels to prevent root rot. Harvest the cilantro regularly to promote continuous growth.
To grow cilantro hydroponically, you will need a nutrient solution, a growing medium like rockwool or perlite, a container with a lid to hold the solution, and a light source. Plant cilantro seeds in the growing medium, place the container in a well-lit area, and regularly monitor and adjust the nutrient solution levels. Harvest the cilantro when it reaches the desired size.
To successfully grow garlic hydroponically, you will need to provide the right conditions such as a nutrient-rich solution, proper lighting, and adequate spacing for the plants. Ensure the garlic receives enough water and nutrients throughout its growth cycle, and monitor for any signs of pests or diseases. Harvest the garlic when the tops begin to turn yellow and dry.
