AMAZING SIMPLE HYDROPONICS DESIGN SYSTEM VIDEO Hydroponics is an ideal growing method for producing culinary and medicinal herbs. Not only do hydroponic herbs grow faster, they have significantly more flavor and aroma than herbs grown in soil. According to research performed at the University of Minnesota, it is a known fact that herbs grown hydroponically have 20-40% more aromatic oils than field grown. Therefore, a small hydroponic herb garden can provide a continuous harvest of gourmet-quality produce in a relatively small space. Many gourmet restaurants have already discovered the value of growing hydroponic herbs on site. For example, the Golden Rose Restaurant in Mason, Michigan is a French restaurant with a 140 seating capacity. Using only a 3 by 3 foot square hydroponic herb garden with a 400 watt metal halide lamp, the Golden Rose can produce enough basil to supply all of the restaurant’s needs. Other restaurants with hydroponic herb gardens include the U.S. Senate Restaurant in Washington, DC, the restaurant at the World Bank in Washington, DC, and many other fine dining establishments around the country. Hydroponically-grown herbs, cut fresh and added directly to signature dishes, add many subtle flavors and aromatic overtones to gourmet food that dried herbs cannot match! In Europe, basil is the most popular herb for hydroponic production. Basil accounts for about 50% of the total herb market in Europe, with the combination of all other herbs making up the other 50%. Some of the most popular culinary herbs for hydroponic production include: basil (sweet basil, lettuce leaf basil, globe basil, Thai lemon basil, cinnamon basil, Siam Queen Basil, and purple/opal basils), rosemary, mint, lemon verbena, French tarragon, Italian flat-leafed parsley, baby dill, sage, oregano, thyme and cilantro. Some medicinal herbs are also grown commercially in hydroponic systems, such as Echinacea, stevia rebaudiana, and several Native American herbs. Many different styles of hydroponic systems with various growing mediums have been used successfully for herb production. For example, NFT is excellent for growing top-quality basil in commercial greenhouses; drip systems using rockwool can produce six-foot hedges of rosemary; aeroponic systems are excellent for growing Echinacea and other medicinal root crops; and flood-and-drain systems with expanded clay pellets are extremely versatile for producing a wide variety of popular herbs. Aquaponics was born from the idea that food should be grown locally, within our city limits using the most sustainable yet technologically innovative ways. Everything we do at Urbanspace is driven by this simple idea. Our vision is to be a part of the movement that seeks to bring food back to our communities where wholesome, fresh food is locally available. hydroponics grow bed, aquaculture aquaponics, backyard aquaculture, hydroponics with fish, fish hydroponics system , hydroponics system plan, hydroponic gardening, hydroponic herb garden, hydroponic supplies, plant grow lights, grow lights for indoor plants, hydroponic growing systems, hydroponic grow systems,indoor gardening,hydroponic farming, indoor hydroponic systems
