Aeroponics vs hydroponics; not a competition, simply a step forward in technological advancement. They are each unique in their own way, but each relies on water and soluble nutrients.<\/p>\n
However, in conventional hydroponics the roots are always submerged in a constant flow of water enhanced with insufflated oxygen and soluble fertilizers.<\/p>\n
With aeroponics the roots of the plants simply hang in the air. Since the roots have 100% oxygen availability and the delivery of nutrients to the plant is unparalleled the plants grow faster, taste better and have a higher yield. The plants receive water and nutrients a total of 15 minutes per hour. The roots are simply hanging in the air at least 75% of the time! Thriving in a highly oxygenated environment without a substrate, without water, and without soil; this is what defines aeroponics!<\/p>\n
Some might argue that this is not a true aeroponic system because it does not use High Pressure or Low Pressure misting. This would be like saying that an electric car is not a car, because it does not have a gasoline engine\u2026<\/p>\n
Scientific comparative testing has proven that crops grown on Tower Garden aeroponic systems feature a superior nutrient density and show an increase in antioxidant and phenolic values. Furthermore, aeroponics delivers on average 35% increase in crop yield and 40% water savings in comparison to conventional hydroponics.<\/p>\n
From the small residential model of the Home Tower Garden, or the 10\u2019 giants found in some commercial Tower Farms, these towers are truly aeroponic towers! https:\/\/www.jardinvertical.ca\/en\/residential-towers\/<\/p>\n
Tower Garden manufactured hundreds of thousands of aeroponic towers for over a decade. Tower Garden technology was the first aeroponic tower on the market, originally named Future Growing Systems. Tower Garden is the pioneer of aeroponic tower technology and commercial Tower Farm systems.<\/p>\n
