Aeroponics grows fruits and vegetables faster, cheaper and better. Its Next Gen Farming Without Soil and 90% Less Water. What we put inside our body is in our hands. Its time to get health conscious. Give good nutrient rich food to your body and see the change your self.
They are the same minerals you'd get from growing plants in soil, so if you grow food with this system, while the nutrient solutions themselves can't be called organic since they are just minerals, all the food grown in it with this solution could/would be organic unless you chose to spray or use other additives. A few things I absolutely LOVE about this system vs soil gardening.
1) It allows people who wouldn't otherwise have the space/time/knowledge to grow their own food to now be able to do so, which in turn empowers people to take ownership of where their food comes from and to make better health choices for them and their families.
2) Growing your own food allows you to eliminate not only the tons of herbicides/pesticides/petrol etc that our national agriculture relies on, but also eliminates plastic grocery store bags, gas to and from store/shipping/etc, and tons of food waste.
3) since these towers are a closed loop system, there is zero runoff into our waterways etc and it also protects the food you are growing from contamination.
4) the University of Mississippi, one of the best agricultural research centers in the US, studies these systems compared to soil based gardening, and found that this system met or exceeded what could be produced in the ground on everything from growth rate, yields, disease and pest resistance, and end nutritional content of the produce itself.
5) Growing with this system allows you to grow a garden with up to 90-95% less water than conventional gardening requires to grow a similar crop, and in a time where access to clean water is becoming an ever increasing problem, this is a huge win.
The plastic these towers are made of is all UV stabilized and fully food grade, certified to not leech anything into the water, or food grow in the system. And while many have said this is unsustainable since plastic is usually petrol based. Other factors we need to take into consideration the massive amount of petroleum used to grow and transport produce to our grocery stores - if you have a lot of land and can grow your own without a compact system like this that is fantastic, but there are millions of people who don't have that luxury, and this system allows them to grow their own instead of relying on our giant gas guzzling agricultural system. As for the nutrient solutions, they are simply earth and sea based minerals. Minerals, by definition, are NOT organic (chemistry defines the term 'organic' as carbon based substances). That said, there is no petroleum or other chemicals used in the nutrients.
