  • Grow food up to three times faster than traditional soil-based gardening.
  • Outdoor hydroponics uses ten times less water than traditional gardening. This is due to the ability to filtrate the same nutrient rich water through your system several times a day.
  • No traditional pesticides
  • Food is tastier when grown outside with natural sunlight as opposing to an indoor UV light.
  • Community outdoor hydroponics can help provide food to those located in poverty stricken areas.
  • Zero mess inside of your home.

Cons:
  • Initial costs of setting up your hydroponic system can be a bit more costly at first, however, in the long run you will spend exponentially less. Factors to consider include how much space you will be utilizing, how automatic you create your garden to be and the amount of time you will same in comparison to traditional gardening.
  • Extreme temperatures can equate to lack of growth. This is true in both overly hot and cold climates. In this situation, it may benefit you to consider an indoor hydroponic system.
