Ebb and Flow Hydroponics, also known as Flood and Drain, is a hydroponic system that cyclically floods the plant roots with a nutrient solution and then drains it away.
Here's how it works:
The system consists of a reservoir containing the nutrient solution, a pump, and a grow tray.The pump periodically floods the grow tray with the nutrient solution, submerging the plant roots. This flooding provides the plants with water and nutrients.
After a set period, the pump turns off, allowing the nutrient solution to drain back into the reservoir.
This draining action provides oxygen to the roots, promoting healthy growth and preventing waterlogging.
Ebb and Flow systems are popular for their simplicity, efficiency, and ability to support various types of plants
