Aeroponics Systems

An Aeroponics system grows plants in a moist setting where soil is not necessary. It was introduced long ago but gained popularity in the recent years.

Currently, it is used in the production of urban food on a large scale, because of its soil-less nature. Many are opting for this system instead of hydroponic methods because it is up to 60% more economical. Just like an average garden, it can grow anything from herbs to fruits. For it to give back good results, avoid growing trees and bushes in the aero system since they do not guarantee good results.
