Aero Hydroponics - The Method of the Future The aero-hydroponic method was developed in Israel in the early 1980’s. Dr. Hillel Soffer‚ senior researcher at the VoIcani Institute at Ein Gedi developed the aero-hydroponic method to overcome the challenges presented by the hot‚ arid conditions at Ein Gedi. The discoveries that followed the development of aero-hydroponics offer great benefits to all hydroponic growers. During a two-year period from 1986 to 1988‚ Dr. Soffer performed extensive research

proper nutrients are available in the food we consume every day. Nearly every packaged food item purchasable in the United States is labeled with the nutritional value by the Food and Drug administration. A few key elements exist to help us understand the nutrition on these labels. The 5/20 rule determines whether or not a food has a good source of a specific nutrient. If a food has 5 percent or less of a certain nutrient‚ then that specific food is not considered a good source of the nutrient. If

(DeAngelis 1980). Three factors affect the stability of an ecosystem: energy flow‚ nutrient cycling‚ and biodiversity. All three factors are directly related. Increased biodiversity in an ecosystem makes more paths for nutrients and energy to move through‚ and the more nutrients and energy moving through the system‚ the more biodiversity. The two main concerns of ecosystem functioning are energy flow and nutrient cycling. When talking about these two topics‚ the terms open systems and closed systems

able to increase the concentration of the nutrient inside the cell‚ even if it is against the concentration gradient. When comparing the concentration of nutrient‚ the cytosol often has a higher concentration of nutrients compared to the periplasm and‚ possibly the environment (depending on how nutrient rich the environment is. For the periplasm‚ it will have a lower concentration of nutrient compared to the environment and the cytosol because as nutrients enter the periplasm‚ they are take up and

Manures The deficiency of plant nutrients and organic matter in the soil is made up by adding manures and fertilizers to the soil of crop-fields. Both manures and fertilizers are major sources of nutrients of plants‚ so they are used in crop production. Besides water CO2 and sunlight plants required no. of elements for their growth. These elements are known as nutrient. Plants get their elements from the salt of these elements present in the soil. But after repeated cultivation of plants soil become

source of a particular nutrient and what is not. If a food has 5% or less of the daily nutrient‚ it is not a good source of that nutrient. If the food product has 20% or more of a nutrient‚ it is a good source of that nutrient. Nutrients that you may not want much of still use the 5/20 Rule. You would want to stay away from foods that contain 20% or more saturated fat or sodium and it is healthier to stay around 5% for those types of nutrients. If you want less of a nutrient‚ aim for 5% and if you

Can You Fertilize With Peanut Shells? Plants need a delicate balance of nutrients in the soil to thrive. When a soil is deficient in any one of the nutrients‚ soil amending is necessary. Organic materials‚ or compost‚ added to soil before planting gives the soil the boost in nutrients plants depend upon to grow. Fertilizers added later help maintain the nutrients as the plants use them. Various organic fertilizers enhance the soil‚ including manure‚ blood meal and wood ash. Other organic materials
