Hydroponics have been around at least since the hanging gardens of Babyon were built around 600 BC. Simply put, hydroponics is the process of growing plants without soil. For the home gardener there are distinct advantages to growing hydroponically compared to growing in soil. In fact many persons who are adept at killing their plants either by neglect or by "kindness" find amazing success growing ornamental and vegetable plants hydroponically.

But getting started is in hydroponics can be daunting. There are a vast array of hydroponic techniques - each with its own advantages and disadvantages. And there are literally hundreds of competing nutrient solutions to choose from, each claiming dramatic success. How to get started?

This is where we come in. We specifically designed our patent-pending kits to make getting started in hydroponics easy, fun, and successful. The results - whether you grow mesclun lettuces, herbs, jalepeno peppers, tomatoes or edible or ornamental flowers - will amaze you. And the best part is that you don't have to worry about over or under watering (both of which lead to trouble), or over or under fertilizing.

Our kits can be used over and over again. When you are ready to expand your garden, you can dedicate separate units to different crops. Depending on the season, we usually have lettuces, basil (we use lots of basil), peas, jalepeno peppers, tomatoes, marigolds, and nasturtiums happily growing in our hydroponic gardens.
