Description :

The book "Hydroponic Plant Cultivation" discusses plant cultivation techniques without using soil as the primary growth medium. The book begins with an understanding of hydroponics and its developments in global and Indonesian applications. It then continues with an introduction to various tools that support hydroponic activities, such as EC meters, pH meters, and TDS meters. The book also describes various types of growing media that can be used in hydroponic systems and their characteristics in supporting root growth and nutrient absorption. Furthermore, readers are introduced to several hydroponic systems, such as wick systems, floating rafts, Nutrient Film Technique (NFT), Deep Flow Technique (DFT), drip systems, ebb and flow systems, and aeroponics.

Through its systematic arrangement, this book helps readers understand that the success of hydroponics depends not only on the technology used, but also on the correct media selection, water management, nutrient regulation, and plant condition monitoring.
