Are you looking for simple ways to adorn your home? Say hello to the new technology of growing indoor plants at home- Aeroponics. To make a house feel like a warm and welcoming home, you need to have only a few tricks up your sleeve.
What is Aeroponics?
Aeroponics is a process by which plants are grown using only air or a mist environment. The use of soil or any other aggregate medium is non-existent in this method. The plants are suspended while their roots are exposed to air and are taken care of by spraying a nutrient mist.
Let’s take a look at the five homegrown plants that are ideal for aeroponics and will make your guests gasp in awe.
Mint
Leafy herbs are the perfect types of plants to grow aeroponically as they bear no fruits or flowers. Another reason to grow herbs like mint and basil is that this method ensures a better aroma. Your nutrient mixture must have a higher nitrogen level to encourage proper growth, and the pH should be slightly acidic.
Lettuce
One of the easiest plants to grow is lettuce. They don’t need any special care, don’t overgrow and produce harvest within a month. Make sure to keep the plant away from too much light and high temperatures. Do this, and you shall enjoy your mini home garden.
Strawberries
Growing strawberries can be a bit tricky as you have to look into several stages of growth. During the initial stages of growth, a balanced nutrient should do fine, but once the flowers develop, you need to change to low nitrogen and high potassium mixture. To promote a better harvest, cut off the runners as soon as they begin to form.
Mustard
Mustard is a cool-weather crop which means you need only adjust the room temperature to a cooler one. This plant’s harvest gets ready within a month. Your solution should be rich in potassium, sulphur, phosphorus and nitrogen.
Ginger
The pleasantly light flavours of ginger can enhance any dish, making it a must to be grown in your backyard. Aeroponics is the right and convenient way of growing mustards without contacting the sensitive area of the plant.
Aeroponics helps fulfil dreams of never falling short of fruits, herbs and vegetables. This technology not only reinvents the concept of home gardening but gives you a home decked up with beautiful indoor and outdoor plants.
