Hydroponics has a bad name Hydroponics has received a lot of undeserved bad press lately. Because many grow-houses are using hydroponics, common people will associate hydroponics with drugs and illegal grow-houses. However, the reality is this is just not the case. There are plenty of legitimate uses for hydroponics by gardeners all over the world. This article will discuss in depth plenty of legitimate uses for hydroponic technology and hope to open your mind to this technology. Let's take people living in high-rise condos for instance. Many people living in tall skyscrapers do not have access to a large garden as you would if you own a house. The same goes for apartment living. Besides having maybe a small patio, you really don't have your own patch of dirt. It makes it very difficult to grow simply using soil and pot on the patio when you want to grow plants to eat. A hydroponics grow box can easily be placed in any spare room, though allowing you to grow your own fresh organic herbs, fruits and festivals just feet away from your kitchen. With hydroponics you have no dirt, no waist, and everything stays perfectly fresh. Without hydroponics people wanting to grow their own organic, and pesticide free fresh fruits and vegetables would be unable to do so. Hydroponics significantly improves the lives of people living in tight, or crowded living situations such as condos, apartments, and high-rise office living. There are also people that live in parts of the world that gets very hot, or very cold during the winter. Plants are very sensitive to heat and cold. The plant gets to hot it will overheat and die. If Ia plant is too hot it will be stunted and completely ruin the fruits. Some nasty areas like desert wastelands for instance have very little soil that will sustain large plants, and the temperature variation throughout the day is often enough to kill even but the most hearty of plants. For people living in arctic cold conditions such as in the mountains, winter in the high deserts they can use the hydroponic system inside of the air-conditioned grow room of their house to grow fresh herbs, produce, fruits and flowers for personal use all year long. You would not often be able to grow in these harsh environments without the use of hydroponics. Hydroponics changes lives in a good way of people that live in harsh climates. Not everybody has a garden, and not everybody lives where the weather permits to grow outdoors all year long. Most people don't have greenhouses. A hydroponics grow box makes it easy for anybody to grow anywhere anytime even with little experience gardening. I would really say the pros outweigh the cons. There many more legitimate users of hydroponics equipment that there are illegitimate users, and it should be taken to mind. Keep in mind you never did hear about a grow house growing tomatoes and peppers being busted. You only hear about the grow houses being busted for marijuana, and often those


numbers are unfairly inflated. The news is very biased and opinionated anyway and not really news. So next time you hear the word hydroponics, think about it as a good thing offering a lot of value to people that use this technology to survive.
