| I am new to hydroponics and would like to figure out the best way to grow tobacco plants hydroponically. They will be grown indoors in a laboratory environment, I can pipe in air, oxygen, or CO2 as needed, and light is easily controlled. I've done a little research, and it seems the first question I should ask is if the tobacco would grow better in solution culture or medium culture. If you have grown tobacco, what exactly did you do? |

| The reason almost no one grows hydro-tobacco is the plant size. don't get me wrong, you *could* grow an oak tree to maturity in a well enough constructed hydroponic system but the cost/difficulty of it is preventitive from anyone accually doing this. other than size, there is no reason you can't grow tobacco using a Bato Bucket or DWC system of some type. even Ebb&flow would be condusive to this type of growing. good luck. |
