As hydroponics is a kind of gardening where only water is used, therefore, the hydroponic grow kit you are interested in should have way to hold water and ensure its supply to the plant’s roots. However, the crown of plants should be held out of water to prevent it from rotting, and this is usually accomplished with the help of hydroponic supplies such as trays, or nets with holes in them so that only the roots of plants are exposed to water. Filters and pumps are also used for moving water and oxygenating it. Pumps are also used for raising or lowering the water level. The features of the system may vary and it depends upon your preference so you can buy appropriate model according to your needs and budget.

These nutrients contain all macro as well as micro nutrients that are required by the plants. You can choose from among hundreds of formulations to meet the needs of your plants.
Itinatampok sa Linggong ito ng Litratong Pinoy ang temang `Lahat ay Payak’ kaya naman naisipan kong ilahok ang larawan ng puno ng Indian Mango. Ilang buwan pa lang ang edad ng mangga sa unang larawan. Matatagpuan ito sa tarangkahan ng aming bahay. Ang ikalawa naman ay namumunga na. Matatagpuan ang katawan ng matayog na puno sa loob ng aming kusina. Naitanim ito bago pa itayo ang aming bahay.
Nagsimula sa isang payak na halaman, ang puno ng mangga ay lumaki at nagdulot ng pakinabang sa amin. Bukod sa prutas nagbibigay din ang punong ito ng lilim sa katanghaliang tapat.
This week, Litratong Pinoy highlights the theme All Are Simple this is why I’m posting the pictures of Indian Mango tree. The small Indian Mango plant in the first photo is barely a few months old. It is found at our gate. The second tree is already bearing fruits. The trunk of the tall tree is located inside our kitchen. It was planted long before our house was built.
It started in a simple (or young) plant, the mango tree matures and becomes useful to us. It provides not only green mangoes but shades at high noon.
