HYDROPONIC GARDENING
Learn how organic and hydroponic gardening
can change the way you garden.
Now you can grow fresh, fabulous plants and produce anywhere and anytime – indoors or out – regardless of temperature or growing season. Hydroponic gardening is painless, as long as you rely on the right gardening advice. At Urban Sunshine we eliminate all the guesswork. We’ll help you pick out the right hydroponic system and teach you all the hydroponic basics – from set up and nutrients to harvesting amazing hydroponic strawberries.
MOTHER NATURE HAS SOME COMPETITION
Whether you want to grow indoors or out, hydroponic gardening can give you outstanding results using a lot less space. It also allows you to control every aspect of the growing cycle. Imagine having the power to influence how sweet your hydroponic strawberries are or how potent your herbs are. Learn the hydroponics basics and you can soon become a pro.
Food
With in-ground gardening, plants seek out nutrients from the soil. With hydroponics, the food is added to the water to make a nutrient solution. Your success depends largely on the quality of the nutrients you choose. Your plants’ nutrient needs change as they grow, and the solution needs to change with them. Our pros at Urban Sunshine can show you exactly what you’ll need and when to grow indoors.
Aeroponics
There are many ways to deliver the nutrient solution to the plants—from hand watering to aeroponics. With aeroponics the plants’ roots hang down into the container and grow mostly in air. A pump inside the container sprays a very fine, highly oxygenated mist of nutrient solution onto the roots at precise times. So there is no need for a growing media such as soil or perlite.
Grow Media
Except for the aeroponics technique, roots need to adhere. There are many different types of grow media such as:
- rockwool
- expanded clay pellets
- perlite
- perlite/ vermiculite mix

Organic Hydroponics
It’s the best of both worlds. You get all the benefits of hydroponics gardening, plus all the benefits of organic gardening. The pure, natural ingredients of our organic gardening fertilizers boost the nutritional value, health, and flavor of your hydroponic strawberries or other produce without any unwanted chemicals. The results are simply delicious!
Watch out
One of the best things about hydroponics is how fast your plants will grow. When plants don’t have to grow their roots down into the soil to "mine" for food, they use that extra energy to grow fast above the ground (or in this case, your container).
However, the conditions need to be kept precise or things can go south just as fast. Contact our pros at Urban Sunshine, and we’ll show you exactly what you need to do to keep conditions optimal at all times. So all you have to do is show off and enjoy more amazing produce!
