There are essentially only two places you can grow hydroponics,
outdoors and indoors. Both have their advantages and disadvantages that I
will discuss here.
An indoor hydroponics system is completely independent of any outside factors and thus can lead to extremely high growth rates and quicker crop turn around.
Building an indoor hydroponics system can be as simple as a kitchen side herb garden to an advanced closet hydroponic system. When using indoor hydroponics there are a few things that you need to be aware of. These are.

- Make sure you have an installed vent fan to remove excess heat and improve air circulation
- Keep your HID (high intensity discharge lamp) at least 24" away from all surfaces due to heat
Indoor Hydroponics can be extremely fun and a valuable asset to any home. Some reasons why indoor hydroponics are used are.
-
Saves and makes use of space
-
Very fast growth and excellent herb, fruit and vegetable crops
-
Fresh herbs and lettuce as you need it
-
Hobbies
-
Make some extra income
As you can see hydroponic gardening can certainly appeal
to alot of people and can be a very fun hobby to take up. It does not
usually cost much to start a hydroponics garden and more often then not
you can teach yourself how to setup a successfull indoor hydroponics
system.
My personal favorite systems for indoor hydroponics are the
aeroponics systems. Aeroponics is a more recent breakthrough in
hydroponics and promotes some of the fastest growth I have ever seen.
Actually I am that big a fan of aeroponics I have devoted an entire
section of my site to Aeroponics.
