Hydroponic Strawberries – 10 Advantages
Have you ever considered growing your own hydroponic strawberries? They are delicious and you could make money from them!
Below is a list of the benefits of growing hydroponic strawberries as opposed to traditional soil grown strawberries.
1. You don’t need a garden to grow hydroponic strawberries so anybody can do it! If you live in a crowded apartment block in the city centre you can grow them! If you live in the desert or Antarctica then its not a problem!
2. Because you’re not using soil, no soil borne diseases will be passed onto the strawberries. This immediately solves a huge problem that many gardeners face.
3. There will be no need to use any expensive and controversial pesticides on your strawberries as there will be no soil loving pests! Your strawberries will remain organic as a result!
4. Once you have your strawberries growing, your running costs will be around 20% lower compared to soil based gardening.
5. You will be able to grow more hydroponic strawberries in a smaller area, this is due to the decreased root size as they don’t need to spread out to find nutrients. Consequently your growing trays can fit in more plants.
6. Maintenance is greatly reduced as soon as everything is set up. There is no need to water them as they already have all the nutrients they need and there is no weeding with hydroponics. In fact all you really need to do is pick them as and when you want them.
7. The strawberry yield will be year round. You control their environment and you will have everything set to their optimum growing conditions so they will continue to produce 365 days a year.
8. You can grow hydroponic strawberries anywhere; rooftop, window ledge, cellar, corridor, greenhouse, conservatory or living room.
9. Hydroponic strawberries grow on average 40% larger than their soil born brothers. This is because you have created their ideal growing environment and they have full access to all the nutrients they need. Money in the bank!
Hydroponic Strawberries are lovely and there is a chance to make alot of hard cash, especially if you happen to be selling them off season for high prices. You should consider setting up your own Hydroponic Strawberries system, sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
