First book - Hydroponics, or more correctly and in a general sense, soilless cultivation is a technology aimed at growing plants in a nutrient solution (water that contains nutrients) with or without the use of an artificial medium (sand, gravel, vermiculite, perlite, rock wool, etc.). Liquid hydroponic systems have no other means of supporting the roots of plants; systems in a solid medium, instead, use a substrate as support. Soil-free cultivation systems are also classified as open (when the nutrient solution draining from the roots is not reused) or closed (when the surplus solution is collected, corrected, and returned to the system).
Soil-free crops are mostly grown in the greenhouse, often requiring high technology and substantial capital. However, they are very productive, ergonomic, efficiently use space water, and (potentially) protect the environment.
Since in such agricultural systems the regulation of the air and radical environment is one of the main aspects, the production takes place through the parallel control of the temperatures of the air and of the roots, of the light, of the relative humidity of the air, of the water, plant nutrition and climatic adversities.

Microgreens are no longer reserved for fancy restaurants and high-end groceries that sell them at high prices.
They have now available to be had by everybody that wants to eat healthily and maintain a healthy diet. You don't even have to buy them in the supermarkets. You can grow them on your very own, in your back yard or even inside. Introducing microgreens into your weight loss program might be easy considering these micro-sized vegetables are versatile and can be incorporated into diets in a lot of unique ways.
Now that you know the different kinds of microgreens and how to grow them, you could get started on your healthy food regimen as soon as you like. Look for fresh, crisp microgreens with the correct color. Avoid any that seem limp, brown, bruised, soft or wilted. The greatest guarantee of freshness is to grow your microgreens and harvest with sharp scissors. Store cut microgreens unwashed and gently wrapped in a plastic bag or a plastic clamshell box in the refrigerator's cold drawer. They'll stay sparkling for 5 to 7 days; some varieties will keep for up to 2 weeks. Microgreens are most often used clean and uncooked. They can also be used as elements in an extensive range of meals from appetizers and soups to mixed drinks and smoothies. Wash just before using them.
Microgreens are also great to grow because they are healthy superfoods. If you grow them in your home, you will always have them to throw on top of a salad or blend into a smoothie. It adds a convenient way to get extra vitamins, antioxidants, and nutrients into your daily diet.
