Fertilizers for Hydroponics

Hydroponic fertilizers are liquid or soluble nutrient solutions that replace the minerals plants would normally draw from soil, delivering them directly through the water in your smart garden or growing system. Getting the nutrient balance right is one of the more important variables in hydroponic growing — too little and growth slows, too much and you risk burning the roots. What we have found is that using nutrients specifically formulated for hydroponics, rather than adapting soil-based fertilizers, gives noticeably more reliable results, especially for herbs and leafy crops that are sensitive to imbalances. At IndoorGarden, we have selected hydroponic nutrients that are compatible with the smart garden systems we stock and easy to measure and dose without specialist equipment. If you are new to adding nutrients manually, the product pages include guidance on dosing to help you get started without guesswork.
