     If you’re like me (and my sincerest apologies if you are), then there have been times when you’ve looked over at your fridge and wished that it was a garden…      Only me? Really? Wow, you’re all quite judgmental.      But fret not! Grobo is here! (https://www.grobo.io)      Yes, you’re right, “Grobo” does sound like a random robot on Futurama that plays a gardener. But it’s also a stylish, seemingly low maintenance grow box for your home (and other people’s homes as well).      Apparently, all you really need to do is add the water and nutrients to the reservoirs, spread some seed (calm ..read more

  Gather around, children. It’s time for a history lesson (yes, I know it’s summer and learning should be saved for more winter-infested months. But bear with me). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroponics      What is hydroponics? The name “hydroponics” literally translates to “water working.” It’s good it doesn’t translate to “wet work” because that could be deadly.      Hydroponics – the practice, not the name, has actually been around for thousands of years. It just wasn’t as popular back then because they had no place to plug in their LED lighting setups.   Apparently, one of (if not ..read more

     Climate change can also affect the price of foods. Less than ideal growing conditions require more water and fertilizers and everything else that a successful farm needs. The more equipment and ingredients needed to produce food-grade crops will increase the costs of production. This in turn will cause food prices to go up.      The severe storms across the globe also hinder the actual delivery of food to areas that cannot produce enough or any. This will also drive up the costs of food because of delays and fuel prices.      Through hydroponics, even though there are some possibly higher ..read more

     It’s us versus the world. We’ve poisoned, polluted, attacked, neglected, and abused the planet almost as long as we’ve existed upon it. Eventually, the planet started to change and fight back. We’re like the schoolyard bullies who are finally experiencing what it’s like when someone fights back with a vengeance. We need to change our ways, repair the damage that is able to be repaired, and slow down the damage that is irreparable. Climate change has become Earth’s defense mechanism. It’s a coping strategy against our abusive behavior and our passive attitude towards its well being.      I ..read more

     Everybody needs food to survive. And food needs a healthy, balanced climate to survive. One of the greatest and gravest threats to our world over the next few years and beyond is climate change. Climate change will have a direct, negative effect on food supply and security.   Figure SPM.7 | Summary of projected changes in crop yields, due to climate change over the 21st century. The figure includes projections for different emission scenarios, for tropical and temperate regions, and for adaptation and no-adaptation cases combined. Relatively few studies have considered impacts on cropping ..read more

The best Organic Mineral Supplements Before we start talking about the best mineral supplement for plants, it is important to be aware of the issues that have pushed companies like Complete Hydroponics and Complete Gardening to develop nutrients that help growers to suceed in both Hydroponics and Conventional Gardening. The first issue is called Mineral Depletion; this phenomenon is caused by a progressive loss of nutrients in the soil due to the continuous use of toxic chemicals such as pesticides, herbicides, and many others of the same nature. The second issue is called GMO induction. Com ..read more
