This commercial-grade system has been scaled down for the home grower. Growers can expect healthier crops—plants are never underwatered or overwatered, with no buildup of salts in the root zone—and up to four times greater yields when compared to conventional growing methods. With Nutriculture’s Gro-Tank, little medium is used, so there is less waste material to dispose of and fewer chances of disease.
