I like the idea of hydroponics because you can get away with no dirt- and
that’s good if your only source of dirt comes from bags at the hardware
store, which is produced in highly dubious ways, from an environmental
perspective. However, the nutrient solution aspect has always outweighed
the advantages of that option for me- it seems like too much of a pain in the neck,
especially when dirt basically comes ‘custom made’ with all of the right
things already in it. However, I have been looking for simple options and
have found a few.
Here’s
one of them. There is also this interesting
semi-hydroponic method.
