Take Control of What You Eat by Organic Farming!

With the onset of fast food and its easier accessibility, we all find ourselves following unhealthy dietary patterns. Packaged food may be easily accessible and feasible at the moment making more space in our refrigerators than the space consuming vegetable and fruits. Aerated drinks are brought over the counter in a matter of seconds whereas anything and everything that grows organically are given second thought before being purchased. However, there’s a silver lining that’s rapidly forming through the food pattern spectrum these days. We call it mindful eating.

There are several components of mindful eating and to describe it best, organic food consumption actively support the statement. It states mindfully choosing the food they want and require for an enriched health and stress-free lifestyle. Organic vegetable farming in India has made its foray by finding bigger shelves in supermarkets with labels such as “Organic pulses”, “organic ghee” etc. This testifies to the fact that masses now want to indulge in cruelty-free, non-GMO produce that reduces he risk of health disorders.

Several organizations in India are transitioning to organic farming methods by encouraging farmers to use pesticide-free methods. It might seem a bit costlier than the conventional ways of farming but organic produce is a dependable source of healthier eating. People can contribute to their own good health by significantly reducing non-organic produce. Proven by scientists, yields from organic produce provide more nourishment and parents should entirely switch to organic produce when it comes to feeding their children chemical-free food.

It’s absolutely true that organic food is produced keeping environmental factors in mind. Factors such as soil fertility, soil erosion and the amount of chemical byproducts sent back to mother Earth, are kept in consideration. The organic food intake impacts both our mental and physical health and it’s by slowly becoming aware of the impact that food makes on our body that we begin to implement positive changes to our eating habits.

The lesser we consumer the chemicals, the more heightened our health would be. It’s through organic farming that we find ways to access healthy snack foods for kids so that unhealthy food consumption is curbed in time.

A Beginners’ Guide to Hydroponics Gardening

Image
‘hydro’ meaning water and ‘ponos’ meaning labor. Plants are grown hydroponically inside a climate controlled greenhouse facility protecting plants from pests and bad weather. Hydroponics cultivation uses almost 90% less water than traditional farming, making this a highly eco-friendly method of farming. Some of the best hydroponics in India produce hydroponic peppers , strawberries, tomatoes and much more. Hydroponics is a simple and practical way to grow plants that require less space. We can set up hydroponics in our own balcony or terrace with little or no investment required. The benefits of hydroponic gardening include a pest and pesticide free produce (less chances of having a pest and minimal Pesticide) and water saving capabilities. It has also been proven that growing plants hydroponically has faster growth rate than growing them in soil. By providing essential nutrients to the plant directly, ensures all the energy of the plant is devoted to growing healthy. A growin

Hydroponic Nutrients: The Basics

Image
With conventional farming consuming a lot more time and efforts of the farmer, hydroponic farming has become one of the latest, more feasible way of growing vegetables. Who would have ever imagined farming without soil being involved? But hydroponic technique does the same, in a shorter span of time with the plant growing directly as its roots are immersed in the nutrient filled solution, allowing it to absorb. Hydroponic vegetables are usually grown in Greenhouses, in a completely controlled atmosphere. They take up just as much as one-fifth of the land and space required in traditional farming and there is no worrying about the soil strength or the appropriate vegetating sessions because the outside temperature plays no role in the growth of the veggie. There is an abundance of nutrients to choose from, for the better quality of your veggies. The nutrients/fertilizers used in hydroponic systems are available in both liquid and dry forms and in both organic and synthetic types

Hydroponic Nutrients: What You Need To Know

Image
Traditionally plants obtain their nutrition from the soil. But in hydroponic farming, these nutrients are supplied to the plant through nutrient-rich solutions that are soluble in water. These nutrients are the essence of hydroponic farming. Since all of the plant's nutrition has to be derived from a solution, it is best for the beginners to use a pre-mixed solution which is readily available in the market. This way you are least likely to go wrong with your practice. However, it does not mean that the required solutions for your plant cannot be created at home or on your farm. This would just require some practice and knowledge about the plant you intend to grow. You can choose from a variety of solutions that are available in the different price range. The choice of the nutrients also varies with formulations – synthetic/ refined minerals and organic based nutrients. Both kinds of hydroponic solutions are equally effective in their roles but since people across the globe a
