Hydroponics

Hydroponics is a method of growing plants using mineral nutrient solutions instead of soil. Terrestrial plants may be grown with their roots in the mineral nutrient solution only or in an inert medium, such as perlite, gravel or Rockwool. A variety of techniques exist.Plant physiology researchers discovered in the 19th century that plants absorb essential mineral nutrients as inorganic ions in water. In natural conditions, soil acts as a soil. Terrestrial plants may be grown with their roots in the mineral nutrient reservoir but the soil itself is not essential to plant growth. When the soil. Terrestrial plants may be grown with their roots in the mineral nutrients in the soil dissolve in water, plant roots are able to absorb them. When the required soil. Terrestrial plants may be grown with their roots in the mineral nutrients are introduced into a plant's water supply artificially, soil is no longer required for the plant to thrive. Almost any terrestrial plant will grow with hydroponics, but some will do better than others. It is also very easy to do; the activity is often undertaken by very young children with such plants as watercress. Hydroponics is also a standard technique in biology research and teaching and a popular hobby.

Envirolite

White/Blue spectrum 6400k lamp designed for propagation and vegetative stage growing. Envirolites are effective, energy saving, reliable, low heat generating horticultural grow lamps, giving excellent results and lower operating costs for all indoor growers. Plants need light in the correct spectrum, which is proven to be between 400 & 700 Nana Wave, and Envirolites produce high output light in exactly this spectrum. There is no wasted light, unlike HID and HPS lamps which need to be positioned high above the plant to prevent burning, Envirolites do not generate excessive heat and can therefore be used directly over plants. Positioned just 3cm or 4cm above the top of the plant, it gives maximum possible light without burning your plants. Envirolites give 100% PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) high output light and are used successfully for all propagation , vegetative or flowering stages. They are self-ballasting and therefore simple to install or wire, are specifically designed to be energy saving lamps and therefore give much lower operating costs than the alternative, and their high lumen output guarantees long life operation. Lamp also available in 2700k red spectrum designed specifically for flowering stage growing.

PLUG AND GROWTM

For the first time the general public can buy a grow light suitable for domestic growing. Previous to plug and grow, grow lights have only been suitable for commercial growers due to the excessive heat emitted by the lamps, high running costs and complicated setting up procedures. There is a huge market for domestic grow lights due to the unpredictability of the British weather but until now nobody had devised a grow light suitable. The answer is Plug And Grow, a self-ballasting light and reflector kit that provides a simple solution for the domestic grower. Plug And Grow kit can be plugged in directly to a standard mains socket and and it is then ready to emit immediately. It doesn't get excessively hot and uses an energy saving lamp to keep down electricity bills. The possibilities with Plug and Grow are endless and its an exciting time for everyone. We are finally convincing the general public that you can grow vegetables/plants indoors with no natural daylight whatsoever. Just think Growing your own tomatoes in your garage, cucumbers in your cellar, pepper Plants in your patio. There is a huge interest in the 'grow your own' culture presently and Plug And Grow allows you to do just that, without a greenhouse, and without a garden!
