Growing your hydroponics outside can save you a lot of time and effort since they eliminate the need for grow lights, humidifiers and air conditioning. Planting them outdoors allows them to grow faster, healthier. Below are some tips for growing outdoor hydroponics to give you maximum yields.

Place your Hydroponic Plants Under the Sun

Getting enough sunlight is one of the main benefits of having a hydroponics system outdoors. If you can, pick a spot that has exposure from the south so that your hydroponic plants are properly sheltered.

Use Cool Water

Since outdoor hydroponic plants are outside, they will use more water compared to plants that are inside your house. This is because outside plants tend to evaporate faster. Therefore, you must make sure that your water reservoir has cool water, especially in the hot weather.

Lessen Electrical Conductivity (EC)

You ought to lower your nutrient solution’s EC when it is hot outside. Your outdoor hydroponics need more water in this kind of weather. When you reduce the nutrients, the plants will be able to absorb water more easily.

Help in Handling the Heat

At the start of summer, it is recommended to put some humic acid or liquid kelp to your hydroponic plants. This will act as a nutrient solution. It will boost their tolerance against heat. Also, it will help your plants in the coming hot days.
