How/why do hydro/aeroponics work?

703 views

I recently watched this video about making your own hyrdoponics for gardening, and it left me wondering how and why it works in leue of gardening in soil (besides a benefit of being able to grow year round) I am sorry I had to use the “Other” flair, because this subject actually spans Biology, engineering, Physics, etc…?

In theory, all nutrients needed by the plants are delivered by the water/nutrient mix. In hydroponics, this is accomplished using fish in your system to fertilize the plants. This can result in healthier plants and faster growth, but takes more work to keep the system clean and the nutrients balanced.
