Have you ever considered growing your own hydroponic strawberries? They are delicious and you could make money from them!

If you would like to know just some of the benefits of growing your own hydroponic strawberries, then read the list below.

1. No matter where you live you can grow hydroponic strawberries. There is no need to have a garden! So even if you live in a crowded city centre apartment block then you can still grow them.

2. As you’re not using soil, no soil borne diseases can be passed onto your strawberries. This will solve a huge problem that many gardeners face.

3. There will be no need to eliminate any soil loving pests! So you will have no need to use any expensive or controversial pesticides.

4. Once you are all up and running, your running costs will be around 20% lower than with traditional soil based gardening.

5. You will be able to grow more hydroponic strawberries in a smaller area, this is due to the decreased root size as they don’t need to spread out to find nutrients. Consequently your growing trays can fit in more plants.

6. Once set up, maintenance time is reduced. There is no watering involved as they have access to their growing nutrients, there is no soil so no weeding. In fact all you really need to do is pick your strawberries as and when you want them.

7. The yield is year round. You control the hydroponic strawberries environment and you will have it set at their optimum growing conditions so that they will produce 365 days a year.

8. You can grow hydroponic strawberries anywhere; rooftop, window ledge, cellar, corridor, greenhouse, conservatory or living room.

9. Hydroponic strawberries grow on average 40% bigger than their soil grown counterparts. This is because they have permanent access to all the nutrients they need and you have created the ideal growing environment for them!
