In my experiment I need to grow mustard in hydroponics system. I need suggestion regarding what type of container can be used for mustard. How to keep mustard seedling in hydroponics solution- whether in wire nets or thermocol sheet is good?
thank you sir, I have standardized the solution required. But using the wire net is very difficult, since the roots don't get fixed there as a result the plant don't stay straight in the wire net.
Very simple hydroponics is easiest. Sow single seeds in kier or rockwool plugs and set plug through a lid on top of a jar of complete nutrient solution. As the plants grow they will take up the solution and develop air roots above the solution, so that no aeration or circulation system is needed. Choose the jar size to hold enough volume of solution to last the length of your experiment, ss you cannot add more solution to the jar without drowning the air roots and killing the plant.
