soilless vegetable

With the continuous improvement of planting technology, many areas now adopt soilless cultivation methods to cultivate vegetables, which is not only clean and environmentally friendly, but also saves a lot of costs. What is soilless cultivation vegetables?

1. What is soilless vegetable cultivation?

Soilless vegetables are vegetables that can be grown without soil. It can get nutrients from mineral nutrient solution, which saves water and can produce high yield as long as the nutrient solution is sufficient. At present, vegetables that can be cultivated without soil include cucumber, tomato, cabbage, ginger, etc.

What are the benefits of soilless cultivation?

1, not subject to seasonal restrictions, you can grow a variety of crops throughout the year.

Soilless culture technology can monitor and adjust the nutrients in the water to meet the needs of crop growth, accurately control plant growth, and avoid excessive growth.

In the hydroponic system, the water in hydroponic culture can be recycled and reused, which can reduce the amount of water used and save water.

Soilless cultivation does not require the use of chemicals, fertilizers, etc. to provide a sterile environment for crop growth.

5. Soilless cultivation crops grow fast, yield increases, no soil setting and testing troubles, and make full use of space.

Compared with traditional planting methods, soilless cultivation has 50% more vitamins than traditional cultivation and has very high nutritional value.

3. What vegetables can be cultivated without soil?

1. Tomato

Tomato can be cultivated soilless all year round. Generally, tomato soilless culture in solar greenhouse is adopted. When entering greenhouse cultivation, it is necessary to determine the crop arrangement in detail. Tomato production is mainly winter and spring.

2, bitter gourd

Balsam pear gourd family balsam pear plant, fruit taste sweet and bitter, mainly used as vegetables, can also be used as sugar, in the north and south are planted, the cultivation environment requirements are not high, with strong growth potential, fruit setting ability, harvest time and other advantages, very suitable for soilless cultivation planting.

3, eggplant

In recent years, eggplant planting is mostly cultivated in sunlight greenhouse and greenhouse, but because of continuous cropping, soil-borne diseases are increasingly serious, and soilless culture planting technology can overcome soil-borne diseases.

4. Ginger

The traditional planting mode, because continuous cropping leads to more soil residues, can not eliminate the ginger blast pathogen, resulting in the growth of planting process infected ginger blast, but the adoption of soilless culture technology can effectively solve this problem.

5, cucumber

Cucumber is easy to be damaged by diseases and insect pests in the process of planting, but the soilless culture technology not only can effectively avoid the damage of diseases and insect pests and soil infection, but also can reduce the amount of pesticide used, provide crop quality and yield, and has the advantages of saving fertilizer and labor and not being limited by soil fertility.
