What if you could double or triple your harvest without acres of land or raised beds? With global food demand expected to rise 70% by 2050, traditional gardening alone may not be enough. Soil depletion from harmful commercial practices adds to the challenge. But there's a solution: hydroponics.

Hydroponics allows you to grow more in less space without soil, with nutrients delivered directly through water. This method maximizes plant growth, providing bigger harvests, even indoors, on a budget.

In this guide, you’ll discover:

• 7 simple hydroponic systems and how to choose the best one for your needs
• The essentials of nutrient management without soil
• Techniques for vertical gardening and succession planting for year-round harvests
• Troubleshooting tips for common problems, including pests
• Ideas to incorporate design and creativity into your system for added visual appeal
