How to choose soilless cultivation substrate
Soilless culture is a new type of cultivation, which has low cost, easy to operation, and produces pure natural and pollution-free green food with very good economic benefits. Today we will introduce you how to choose the substrate for soilless cultivation!
Substrate culture is one of the most natural rooting environment in soilless culture. It has better buffering capacity, and does not have the problem of imbalance of nutrients, water and oxygen. Compared with hydroponics and fog culture, it is more convenient to manage, has less one-time investment, lower cost, stable performance, and good economic benefits. It is most widely used in actual production and is most easy to promote.
1.In the process of the rapid development of human civilization, people realize that it is not desirable to sacrifice the environment for development.. As for the choice of substrate, not polluting the environment, recyclable ones are getting more and more attention, which is also the trend of future development.
Of course, only one kind of substrate cannot be suitable for all regions. Different climates, resources and other issues make the requirements for the substrate slightly different in different region. After all, long-distance transportation of substrates may not be fully applicable due to increased costs.
2. Ideal Planting Media
The ideal substrate should have better performance than soil, be suitable for more stages of plant growth. It can be easily moved when planting large potted plants, can reduce the load when planting on the roof. It should have large porosity, and after is saturated with water, a large amount of air can exist in the gaps. The substrate should have strong water holding capacity, do not need frequent watering. It does not affect the growth of crop roots and prevents lodging. When there is less water, it will not crack and break the root of crops, has a certain thermal insulation ability, does not carry diseases and insect pests, and will not deteriorate due to high temperature and other factors.
