Growing plants at home is a rewarding and fulfilling activity that brings nature into your living space. Whether you want to grow herbs, vegetables, or flowers, having a home garden can boost your mood, improve air quality, and even provide you with fresh, homegrown produce. But what if you don't have a lot of space, or you're dealing with less-than-ideal lighting conditions? That's where hydroponic systems come in!
In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to grow plants at home using the DPROOTS Hydroponic Growing System, a space-saving and efficient way to cultivate a variety of plants indoors, regardless of your space or experience level.
What Is Hydroponic Gardening?
Hydroponics is a method of growing plants without soil, using a nutrient-rich water solution to deliver all the essential elements plants need to thrive. The roots of the plants are submerged in water and are fed by the nutrients dissolved in it, while the plants get plenty of oxygen and light, usually from LED grow lights. Hydroponic systems can be used for a wide range of plants, including leafy greens, herbs, strawberries, and even small fruiting plants like tomatoes.
Why Choose Hydroponic Gardening?

Hydroponic systems like the DPROOTS Hydroponic Tower System are designed to maximize space. Standing vertically, these systems allow you to grow 45 plants in just 1 square foot of space, making them ideal for apartments, small homes, or even offices. -
Faster Growth
Hydroponic gardening accelerates plant growth by providing all necessary nutrients directly to the roots. With the help of LED grow lights, plants grow up to 3 times faster than traditional soil planting, so you can enjoy fresh herbs, lettuce, and vegetables in record time. -
