Hydroponic
Literature
Knowledge is Power !
We stock only the latest
and best books dedicated to Hydroponic cultivation. We
have found over the years that these books
are not the easiest to locate and decided to
offer this service as part of our efforts to
promote hydroponic cultivation to the wider
world !
Many hydroponic books currently
available were written many years ago and as
a result do not cover the latest techniques
or technology. This
is not the case with the titles we offer !
Click
on the individual book title on the right to
read a brief description of the contents and
to see the price. You
will also have the option to read a fuller
description of the contents; to review the
book to help other growers; or to purchase
the book.

First published in 1979, The ABC of NFT quickly established itself as the 'hydroponic NFT bible' throughout the world. It can be fairly said that many of the world's commercial NFT growers used this visionary work as their inspiration. Today, Dr Cooper's extraordinary vision has become a reality. In this new edition, Dr Cooper looks at the development of NFT, and challenges conventional hydroponic thinking in a forward that suggests that further research work is needed to explore the use of non-chemical nutrition.

This book is designed to provide essential
information of a practical and scientific
nature for current and prospective hydroponic
lettuce growers. While hydroponic salad
crops are often seen as being easier to
produce than fruiting crops, such as tomatoes
and cucumbers, the degree of skill required
to produce a quality product and effectively
utilise hydroponic technology is still
high.
The text explores everything from the
background physiology of the lettuce
plant, to the details of growing systems
and management, raising seedlings, selecting
cultivars, nutrition, pests and diseases,
and harvesting.

El presente libro ha sido escrito con el fin de suministrar
a los productores de lechugas hidropónicas toda la información
práctica y científica necesaria. Aunque el cultivo hidropónico
de lechugas pueda parecer más sencillo que el cultivo de otras hortalizas,
como pudieran ser el tomate o el pepino, en la práctica se requiere
un alto nivel de conocimientos para obtener el máximo rendimiento
de la hidroponía y conseguir un producto de calidad. Por ello, la
presente obra versa sobre todos aquellos aspectos que configuran el cultivo
hidropónico de lechugas, tales como el entorno fisiológico
de la planta, los sistemas de producción y su funcionamiento, los
métodos de siembra, los aspectos relativos a la nutrición,
las pestes y enfermedades que la afectan y, por último, las técnicas
de cosecha.

The Handbook to Hydroponic Nutrient Solutions is an authorative text on the hydroponic nutrient solution. In six chapters, this book looks at the difference between liquid and powdered nutrients, single-packs and twin packs, grow and bloom formulations, and organic nutrients. The author examines nutrient concentrations and the availability of nutrient elements to plants, and looks in detail to chemical tests, reverse osmosis, disinfestation of water, and the importance of aeration. The author explores the importance of nutrient solution temperatures, nutrient strength (electroconductivity), and the acidity (pH) of the nutrient solution. The author also describes in detail a new non-chemical method of pH control for the nutrient solution. The author outlines 10 steps to determine nutrient deficiencies, and examines common nutritional disorders. He also provides expert advice on how to correct nutritional problems. Well illustrated with photographs, charts and tables, this book is as much for the beginner as it is for the experienced grower.
