REVERSE OSMOSIS & HYDROPONICS

In order for your hydroponic system to thrive, you need to start with the right water. Your hydroponic system's water needs to have low levels of total dissolved solids (TDS). TDS is the total amount of disolved minerals, salts, and metals in water. The TDS level is measured by parts per million (ppm). In addition to low TDS levels, your water should also be slightly acidic to neutral in its potential hydrogen (pH) level. Starting with the right water makes it much easier to make adjustments after adding nutrients.

The best way to remove contaminants and TDS from your water source is through a process called reverse osmosis, commonly known as "RO." Reverse osmosis is a process by which water is pressurized through a semipermeable membrane, leaving unwanted minerals, contaminants, and chlorine behind. The pure product water has a low TDS level and typically has a pH level ranging from 5.0 to 6.0. You are then able to add your nutrients and adjust your pH accordingly without having to worry about effects caused by previous contaminants.

COMPLETE HYDROPONIC SOLUTIONS

High quality water leads to faster, healthier, and more robust plant growth. Water that has not been properly treated can quickly destroy your entire hydroponic garden. Sediment deposits, waterborne pathogens, dissolved salts, and water hardness can all undo your hard work if they make contact with the roots of your crops. Pure water is as integral to your hydroponic success as your pH adjusters and nutrient solutions. Fresh Water Systems offers total solutions to your hydroponic applications. From commercial reverse osmosis systems down to net pots, Fresh Water Systems can guide your growth from seed to bloom.

Looking to learn more about hydroponic systems?

Hydroponic gardening is a fascinating and eco-friendly agricultural practice. Dating back to the famed hanging gardens of Babylon, modern hydroponics conserves space, maximizes yield, and encourages prolific growth in fruits, flowers, and vegetables. Water provides hydroponically grown plants with nutrients, oxygen, and hydration, all while stimulating rapid crop production.

However, while all hydroponic systems employ highly pure water and nutrients, there are a host of diverse ways to grow hydroponically. Aeroponics suspend the roots of the plants in the air, misting them with a nutrient super-charged solution. Ebb and flow systems periodically inundate the roots of the plants with a flood of nutrient solution, before receding and letting the roots slowly dry out. Some systems are more equipped to handle lightweight leafy greens like kale and spinach, while others can grow flowering vine fruits like watermelons, pumpkins, or zucchini.

We've assembled an in-depth guide on hydroponics. We explore how the six different systems work, the pros and cons of each system, and what crops are best suited to each system. If you're eager to learn more about hydroponic farming, dive in to our blog
