The average person knows little if anything about hydroponics; however, the practice of growing plants without soil has been known and used for more than 1000 years.Real hydroponic culture generally means growing plants in a nutrient solution using no soil or other rooting medium, although today almost all of the many different methods of growing plants without soil employ various types of inert materials for a rooting medium, such as gravel, perlite, vermiculite, or others.The first attempts to grow plants without soil were documented in ancient Babylon and also in the Aztec civilization of ancient Mexico. Even the famous explorer Marco Polo documented this practice in the Chinese Empire.
More recently, in World War II, the United States extensively used hydroponics to furnish its troops with fresh vegetables in places where there was no soil available, or the proper conditions to grow using conventional agriculture.
