Hydroponic System by urbanhive – Efficient and sustainable for long-term growth

Hydroponics is one of the most efficient methods for growing plants indoors. urbanhive relies on a combination of three proven hydroponic systems. These methods are not only space-saving and clean, but also ensure faster growth cycles and healthier plants. Here's why our hydroponic system is so special.

1. Combination of the best hydroponics methods

There are six classic hydroponic systems, from which we have identified and combined individual components after testing: aeroponics, deep water culture, and wick system. These ensure better growth with minimal maintenance.

  • Aeroponics: The roots hang in a closed container and are misted with nutrients.
  • Deep Water Culture: The roots are constantly submerged in nutrient solution, ensuring a continuous supply.
  • Wick System: Water is transported via a wick, so the plant always receives the right amount of moisture.

2. Permanent Nutrient Supply

Our hydroponic systems allow plants to be supplied with nutrients directly through their roots. This has many advantages:

  • Faster growth: Since the plants absorb nutrients directly and constantly, they grow faster than in conventional soil.
  • Efficient use of resources: In a hydroponic system, water and nutrients are used optimally. Excess water is returned and can be reused.

3. Reduced Maintenance

Thanks to the intelligent combination of our three hydroponic methods, the plants do not need to be constantly monitored. The system automatically supplies water and nutrients.

  • Consistent watering: The capillary wick system ensures that plants always receive the optimal amount of moisture.
  • Minimal water consumption: Compared to conventional planting methods, our system uses up to 90% less water.

4. Maximum oxygen supply for the roots

Oxygen supply to the roots is crucial for plant growth. Our system promotes oxygen supply through innovative techniques.

  • Aerated Roots: The system ensures that the roots are regularly supplied with oxygen, which stimulates root growth.
  • Optimized Air Circulation: The well-thought-out design ensures adequate air circulation to prevent waterlogging and root rot.

5. Customizable Water and Nutrient Control

With the urbanhive app, you have control over your hydroponic system at all times.

  • Real-time notifications: The app informs you, for example, when it's time to refill the water.
  • Tips and tricks: You get specific harvest tips and always have an eye on plant growth
