Hydroponics

Hydroponics is an environmentally friendly and safe cultivation method that has many advantages. Hydroponic plants are normally healthier, mature earlier, and have a higher yield. Under the guidance of professional instructors, students learn how to install hydroponic equipment, germinate the seeds, transplant, irrigate, fertilize and harvest the crops. Apart from learning the hydroponic cultivation techniques, students can also share the joy of harvest with others.
