The DWC hydroponics system is a very popular plant growing system. Reliable and easy to operate, this system will allow you to get a higher yield than with conventional cultivation methods. Due to the square shape, you can use the growbox area to the maximum.
The principle of operation of Deep Water Culture is that the system is filled with a hydroponic nutrient solution, which is aerated using an air compressor and an air stone. The sprout is placed in a mesh pot with expanded clay and inserted into the lid.
If you grew a sprout in a cube of mineral wool, then it is placed directly into the expanded clay along with it.
Air bubbles saturate the nutrient solution with oxygen and when the roots reach the bottom, they will also be aerated, which will prevent the proliferation of anaerobic bacteria. For this, the compressor must be constantly running.
But this does not mean that oxygen will completely rid the roots of various pathogens. Therefore, in DWC systems, when mixing the solution, they also use preparations based on mycorrhiza or beneficial bacteria, which help the roots stay healthy and the plant to develop rapidly.
The DWC hydroponic system is made of durable, light-proof plastic.
In this system, it is always necessary to maintain the desired pH and EC levels, so you will also need instruments that measure them.
