Knowing the best substrate to use , matching the crop to the climate , and having a strong understanding of irrigation controls can be the difference between a good crop and a great crop .

The root system is the powerhouse of the plant , responsible for absorbing water and nutrients . It must not only maintain its own growth and development , but also provide essential supplies for fruit , flowers , and foliage . Root zones are difficult to monitor because they are enclosed , dark , and are often overlooked , however , they are essential for driving yields and overall plant vigour and , even in hydroponics , need a little consideration now and then .
