| DIY Hydroponics: If You Build It They Will Grow |
| Think you have to drop a load of cash to garden hydroponically? Think again. With a few old two-liter bottles, a large plastic tray, a little growing medium, and some nutrient solution, you can create your own passive hydroponics system. Add a couple of inexpensive modifications and you can convert that passive system into a continuously aerated one in no time. |

| The word “hydroponics” means "working water." No matter what sort of system you decide on, there will be one common denominator...NO SOIL! Believe it or not, even though all the plant's nutritional needs are delivered to them in a water solution, a hydroponic garden actually uses LESS water than a garden grown in soil. |
