Congratulations! Your interest in Hydroculture has opened the door to a new and exciting way of successful plant care and lush growth with beautiful flowers. This will be done with much less effort on your part and will eliminate all guessing as to when to water and how much to water and feed your plants. The results will be very rewarding with much less plant maintenance.

The System Consists of the Following:

-A plastic outer pot that is water tight and will hold the nutrient solution.

-A culture pot that is the heart of the hydro system and fits neatly inside the outer pot.. The culture pot is of special design. It has a concave bottom so only the outer portion of the pot makes contact with the outer pot and the nutrient solution. The culture pot has slits all around the lower portion of the pot for maximum air flow through the growing medium and root zone.

-The growing medium is a high fired terra cotta which provides support, oxygen and capillary action to move the nutrient evenly throughout the roots. This medium is called Leca.

-Last, but not least, is the Water Level Indicator. It fits neatly into the culture pot and will indicate when to water and how much to water. It also acts as a handle to remove the culture pot so you can leach the medium and root zone once a month with tepid running water.
