Growing In Bubbleponics Planter Kit – Complete Guide

Bubbleponics can be described as a top feeding hydroponic system. The system can be used to grow many types of plants with ease. One of these plants includes lettuce.

The oxygenated nutrient solution is simply pumped from a reservoir to the top of the roots.

The water freed over the roots thus runs again into a set reservoir. The process begins once more.

The plant roots are designed to hang without a medium for them to get a good access to oxygen, water, and dissolved nutrients.

Plants need carbon dioxide and therefore you should pump this gas into an enclosed greenhouse, for instance.

They get oxygen from a constantly moving nutrient solution. It circulates in this manner for it to dissolve enough quantities of oxygen from the air.

However, the air can be continuously pumped into the reservoir to allow more oxygen to dissolve in a nutrient solution as much as possible.

The roots are left to hang in net pots. In time, they will steadily grow into the nutrient solution in the reservoir container just below it.

However, differences do not exist between deep water culture and bubbleponics once the roots of plants in both systems have grown into the nutrient solution.
