To help plants grow, we can add fertilizers. 🌱
There are different types of fertilizers, but the most common are chemical, organic, and biofertilizers.
Chemical fertilizers contain nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, and other nutrients like lime, zinc, and magnesium needed to grow plants.


Organic fertilizers include manure from animals or fish byproducts.
Biofertilizers contain bacteria or fungi that help plants grow.
Here are some Pros and Cons of using fertilizers.

➑️ When there is more rain than evaporation, chop-and-drop mulching works well.
When it rains the most, you should start making mulch.
The extra water will help the mulch break down faster and keep it in place.
When conditions are too dry, mulch can blow away and even start fires.

Reasons to use a Tower Garden.

1. All year long, fresh vegetables
The Tower Garden can grow plants all year round because it can be used indoors! The Tower Garden uses artificial sunlight-like lighting and a nutrient-rich solution in place of water to produce plants that are just as successful indoors as they are outdoors.
Additionally, your plants will thrive in a more controlled, stable environment without worrying about the weather. This ensures that you'll get fantastic, reliable growth every time you plant.

2. Use up to 90% less water
Additionally, gardening in aeroponic systems is very environmentally friendly. Today, conventional farming practices consume up to 80% of the water supply in the USA and even 90% in other nations! Tower Gardens can conserve up to 98% more water than conventional gardening techniques over the long run.

3. Grow up to 3x as quickly
According to research, Aeroponic Tower Gardens can produce full-sized plants three times faster than conventional gardens. So, rather than waiting months for fresh vegetables and herbs, you may have them now. You'll also have additional harvest cycles each year as a result.

4. Saves space
And lastly, compared to conventional gardens, aeroponic gardens require much less room. Even in a small flat, they can be used inside. Since the plants grow vertically, the same quantity of crops can be grown on 90% less surface area. You can produce dozens of plants in a tower that only takes up 3 square feet of your house!

Sweet potatoes are surprisingly easy to grow. Just a few plants can yield a bountiful harvest of this nutritious, sweet-tasting root vegetable. Despite their name, sweet potatoes are grown in warm climates only; northern regions can have success with select varieties.
