Setting up your own hydroponic system involves many individual aspects. In this series of articles we try to give an overview of the available concepts, the technology and the implementation. You can also find an overview of the existing measurement and control technology here. As is often the case, the devil lies in the details. Especially in the areas of measurement, control and regulation, you need a lot of knowledge or a lot of time to read up on the topic.
At this point we offer you our knowledge if you don't have the time for the necessary details.
Below we will go through the steps that should be taken into account when setting up a system. Please do not hesitate to put any idea that makes sense to you into action. We can guarantee you that Columbus' egg has not yet been found.
