Abstract

Modern day families are increasingly becoming environmentally health conscious. It is, therefore, no surprise that organically grown vegetables are fast replacing the flower pots in balconies and terrace gardens. Taking a step forward, city dwellers are now adopting Hydroponics the art of growing plants without soil. Although clean eating caught the fancy of people a few years ago, this subset of Hydroculture is relatively a new practice that is finding prominence across India. Soil-less farming has picked up because people have become aware about saving water and eating chemical-free food.
