A continuously immersed root zone

Deep water culture begins with a working plan.

A planning route for understanding the vessel, solution, aeration path, access, and interruption plan as one system.

The planning principle

Begin with the root-zone operating pattern and the equipment that keeps it observable before comparing site counts.

Before equipment

Put three questions on the room sketch.

01
Observation
How can solution condition and the root zone be checked without disrupting the layout?
02
Air path
Which components support aeration, and how can they be inspected?
03
Interruption
What is the response plan if a critical component stops?
