About Lesson

 

 Let’s explore **Nutrient Film Technique** or NFT hydroponics – an efficient way to grow plants without soil!”

How the N.F.T Hydroponics System Works - The Hydroponics Guru

“In NFT systems, plants are suspended above a thin stream of nutrient-rich water that flows gently over their roots, delivering nutrients directly.”

 

“The channels are tilted so that water flows down into a reservoir. From there, an air stone oxygenates it, and a pump sends it back to the top, keeping the water circulating.”

 

 

“The channels are grooved to prevent water from pooling, allowing just enough nutrients to reach the roots without over-watering.”

“Weekly nutrient solution replacements are key. NFT is perfect for lightweight plants like leafy greens and strawberries, but heavier plants, like tomatoes, need support.
