How Do Hydroponics Work?
Hydroponic systems are a form of indoor gardening ecosystems that provide the user with a space to grow essentially any plant type they wish. The way it works is by using a complex combination of effects that help raise the plants from a baby to adult plant. Hydroponics is also knows for speeding the plant growth to up to 10 times the speed of traditional gardening. Hydroponics is also known for growing organic plants because of the lack of hormone injection.
In the hydroponic industry, we provide ecosystems to help grow your plants in a controlled envirement. As complicated as this may sound, the grow boxes are very user friendly. The way a grow box is built is very important. For one thing, all plants need light. Most manufacturers place a combination of lights ranging from a tek light, to a 1000w light, and even flourescent lights. Although, there are many lighting systems (such as UFO lights), these are the primary lights usually placed in a grow box. Also, the size of a grow box usually determines what kind of lights will be placed inside of it. Another important aspect of a grow box is the DWC hydroponic system. This "bucket" is where all the magic happens. Since there is no need for soil in a grow box, this bucket is comprised of mostly nutrient and water. Of course, the user would have to post the nutrients manually. Since the roots are dangled in the water below it, and the lights are shining on the plants around it, the plant itself is fully fed at all times for optimal growth. In essence, only the light and the hydroponic bucket are the key ingredients for organic plant growth right in your home.
Of course there are other parts that comprise a well rounded grow box. These parts include, but are not limited to, fans, a ballast, the outer shell of the unit, ect.. There are also luxury upgrades that may be purchased with each grow box. Some of these include the Co2 system (sprays Co2 to plants for rapid growth - up to 50% faster), an aeroponic fogger (releases nutrients in the air for rapid plant growth), air conditioning, a total automation package, sea of green, a remote control security system, ect...
Most hydroponic systems are also considered automated. There are also many low cost (under $500) tents that are not automated. For example, Dealzer sells only automated, 'plug and play' grow boxes. Although many grow boxes are automated, the industry has came up with something called a total automation package. The total automation package actually has light movers, tops of nutrients automatically, and has a low water alarm, amongst other features. The total automation package is therefore considered a thinking piece of equipment, or a "Smart" system.
In essense, hydroponics will grow any plant, herb, flower, ect.. faster and organically. As Albert Farajian, owner of Dealzer.com says, "Hydroponics are exploding on the world market because of the organic food craze". He also mentioned, "People realize that they can now grow organic foods right in their own homes saving them money and stopping themselves from eating hormone infested foods." Hydroponic system owners report full harvests of fresh, organic foods at a shocking rate of 30 day harvests! One may wonder - How will traditional gardening compete with the speed of growth and health benefits hydroponic gardening offers in todays market?

Wow, thanks for the detailed information. Does anyone know what kind of nutrients you should use in a grow box? I heard flora nova is the best, but would like some feedback.
