Hydroponic plant cultivation and examples of practical use.
WEIDENTHALER, Jakub
The aim of the thesis is to present the different possibilities of hydroponic cultivation. The basic principle of hydroponics is explained in the literature review. Furthermore, the individual possibilities of practical cultivation of plants in domestic production as well as in large-scale production are presented in detail. The advantages and disadvantages of the most used methods are also explained. The main advantages and disadvantages of hydroponic cultivation are assessed. The biggest benefit of hydroponics is growing plants without the need for soil. Hydroponics is thus also suitable for indoor growing in the home. It can thus be used in urban areas for vertical cultivation, where there is a huge saving of space. In view of the loss of agricultural land and the deterioration of its quality, hydroponics seems to be the crop of the future. The saving of water consumption, mainly in recirculation systems, is also a major advantage. But there are also clear limiting disadvantages. The biggest problem is operating costs. In 2022, during the energy crisis, the cost of energy is proving to be the most limiting factor. Most hydroponic systems need a constant supply of electricity to effective run.
