Soil gardening is the traditional way of growing plants and trees.  After all it’s how plants have grown naturally since the dawn of time.  However humans are straying from that path because we have found more efficient ways to grow them.  This is where Hydroponics comes in.  It’s the easiest way to grow plants without soil.

Hydroponics is simply growing plants without soil but with water.  We must supply the plant with all the nutrients it requires because there are no nutrients naturally in the growing media (like rockwool) to sustain it.  There are all sorts of hydroponic systems out there like: Ebb and Flow, Bucket systems, enclosed cabinets, hanging gardens, etc..  But there is a new type of system out on the market now which is so revolutionary it defies gravity.

This new product is called The Omega Garden.  The Omega Garden is a machine which can grow up to 300 plants in only 20 square feet of floor space.  The plants are grown in rockwool cubes which are placed in channels.  These channels are added to two side rings which make up a drum shape when completed and this drum of plants revolves around the light source.

There are numerous benefits to growing with this system.  For one, with plants so close to the light source there is little light dispersion meaning the plants get more light.  Because plants rotate around the light, the directional change creates plants which are stockier and more uniform.  The plants don’t need to fight gravity to get all the nutrients to their extremities more plants can be grown in a smaller space.  The system uses less water that other conventional ones.  It also is claimed that the Omega Garden can increase yields 3-5 times and reduce the amount of time it takes for plants to grow.

This Omega Garden has quite a genius design to it and there are different models to choose from.  There is a basic model and a complete model which can each hold up to 300 plants.  Less expensive is the Volksgarden which can hold up to 80 plants.  If you want to grow commercially check out the carousel unit.  It consists of multiple Omega Gardens on a rotating carousel.  There is even a newer machine called the Foodle which grows up to 24 plants via Aeroponics which grows by spraying water onto the roots directly.
