NFT Hydroponic System

In soilless cultivation, NFT hydroponic systems represent an innovative but rather widespread technique among hydroponic growers and farmers. 

Hydroponic systems are systems used in so-called "soilless" or "soilless" crops . In these crops, the cannabis plants are grown in pots or small containers without soil, but placed in a tray full of water. In the tray, in addition to water, there are nutrients that feed the crops. 

Among hydroponic methods, NFT ( Nutrient Film Technique ) hydroponic systems are a cultivation model based on the nutrient solution film technique.

Thanks to this procedure, the plants - in particular those of short-cycle crops - are continuously fed by water, in which nutrients are always present.

This method falls under flow-through hydroponic systems . 

Let's find out together how NFT systems work and what are the products for hydroponic cultivation , also useful for beginners , that you can find in this category.

In this category, in addition to the nutrient film technique, you will also find other types of hydroponic cultivation systems, also useful for beginners. 

How do hydroponic NFT systems work?

NFT hydroponic systems use a very simple technique which consists in dispensing the water - and the nutrients - in a capillary way at the base of the tray, containing the plants, through a fabric placed on the bottom of the tank itself. 

The water and nutrients reach the collection tray through NFT channels , resting on a frame. 

Subsequently, the action of an immersion pump causes the solution to flow back into the NFT tubes at regular intervals, once again recirculating the distribution of the liquid solution in the plants.

The NFT system is widely used for indoor crops as:

• It adapts to small height plants;
• It allows an optimal saturation of vegetables;
• Make the most of the light source;
• It favors a good and constant oxygenation process 

Despite its numerous advantages, it also has some disadvantages. For example, the tank-tank emptying system , which is difficult to disassemble, should be improved. Also, tie rods should be added to hook the roots to the substrate in the tank.
