Static Aerated Technique - SAT

Plants are grown
in a depth of
static nutrient
solution
Referred to
passive technique
Suited for
learning the
basics of
hydroponics and
R & D work
Air pump

Static Aerated Technique

Nutrient solution is
enriched O2 and
aerated by
pumping air into
the nutrient
solution in the tank.

Dry weights were

nearly double for
those plants in
aerated treatments
compared to those
in a non-aerated
treatments

Root Mist Technique - RMT

Known as aeroponics
The roots hang in
the air and are
misted with nutrient
solution for several
minutes (i.e. 1
minute on, 5 min
off)

Aeroponic
This is an efficient
and quick system for
growing short term
plants such as
lettuce, but not long
term plants

Aeroponic
Ukuran butiran nutrisi
sangat penting dalam
penyerapan oksigen
Semakin kecil : akar
mudah menyerap nutrisi
Semakin besar : akan
jatuh sebelum diserap
oleh akar
Umumnya ukuran: 20-100
microns

Fog Feed Technique - FFT

Mirip RMT, butiran
nutrisi sangat halus
dapat melembabkan
tangan
Cocok untuk
tanaman yang
akarnya
menggantung
seperti : orchids,
anthuriums
Fog

Fog Feed Technique - FFT

This technique is helpful for rooting leafy cuttings

Drip Irrigation Technique

Plants are grown in inert
or organic material and
the nutrient solution are
fed around the root
system 6-7 times a day,
in drops or trickles.
Recovery Drip System is
the excess nutrient
solution that runs off is
collected back in the
reservoir for re-use.
The Non-Recovery Drip
System does not collect
the run off.

 Irigasi tetes dapat

digunakan dalam
berbagai tipe permukaan
Pengggunaan air sangat
efisien
Evaporasi, perkolasi, dan
runoff dapat dikurangi
Menghemat biaya tenaga
kerja

Keuntungan Drip Irrigation

Drip Irrigation Technique

Growing medium should
be clean and sterile
Reuse growing medium
should be sterilized
Plants are irrigated
according on climate
condition
Amount of nutrient
solution is equal with
crop water requirement
that represented by ETc

Drip Irrigation Technique

The pump unit takes water from
the source and provides the right
pressure for delivery into the pipe
system
The control head consists of
valves to control the discharge
and pressure in the entire system.
It may content filters : screen,
graded sand
Also fertilizer or nutrient tank
Will be one of major advantages of
drip irrigation over other

Drip Irrigation Technique

Mainlines, submains and
laterals supply water from
the control head into the
fields. They are usually
made from PVC Lateral pipes
are usually 13-32 mm
diameter.
Emitters or drippers are
devices used to control the
discharge of water from the
lateral to the plants.
