Hydroponics
Hydroponics is growing plants in a water-based, nutrient solution rather than in soil. Hydroponic practices can increase the rate of growth in plants up to 25% faster while producing up to 30% more than the same plants grown in soil.
At Basket Case Farms, we carefully control pH levels and nutrient solutions, allowing our plants to focus on “growing up,” rather than expanding the root system down. By recycling water throughout the system, we grow more with less – using a fraction of the water required for traditional farming, year-round, on a fraction of the land. This controlled environment also means fewer pests and diseases, resulting in healthier plants and higher yields.
