A method of growing plants, including cannabis, without soil, using a water-based nutrient solution to deliver essential minerals directly to the roots. In hydroponic systems, plants are supported by inert mediums such as rockwool, clay pebbles, or coco coir, and the roots are submerged in or exposed to a nutrient-rich water solution. This method allows for precise control over nutrients, pH, and moisture, often leading to faster growth and higher yields compared to traditional soil cultivation.
