Hydroponic Gardening Tips To Help You Build A Better Indoor Garden
Thank you for stopping by Hydroponic Gardening Tips to learn more about one of my favorite wintertime hobbies: hydroponics & indoor gardening!
I live in Portland, Oregon, one of the most beautiful cities in all of God’s creation! We are blessed with an over-abundance of opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors.
When the summer sun is shining our gardens are alive with activity and it’s an enjoyable time of year to be outside. But our winters are long, wet, cloudy and cold with a serious lack of sunshine. Growing green plants under intense lights offers a much needed break from the winter doldrums!
When it's cold outside, nothing feels better than to open the grow room door, see the intense glow of light and feel the warmth of an indoor garden.
During the winter months I’ve become accustomed to building and rebuilding my indoor garden. Nothing is better than enjoying the fruits of mid winter and early spring harvests!
Ever since high school I have had an interest in growing plants, especially in indoor gardens. During a college speech class I gave a speech on the design of an indoor garden with a discussion on how to build a hydroponics system.
During my college years I designed and built a few systems and began learning about gardening under lights. There is nothing better than enjoying the fruits of your labor from your very first indoor garden! Harvest time is always an enjoyable pleasure, especially during the cold days of winter.
I began my indoor gardening hobby using fluorescents and quickly progressed to using high intensity discharge (HID) lighting to increase my yields and kick my garden into high gear.
Over the years, I’ve tested all sorts of methods for growing plants including several different hydroponics systems. I love to do research and test ideas with the ultimate goal of gaining a better yield and a more flavorful harvest.
