Why Is Oxygen Important in Hydroponics, and What Are Its Benefits?
Oxygen is important for plant growth and health in hydroponic systems for a few reasons.
- First, dissolved oxygen is necessary for plants to convert CO2 into energy during photosynthesis.
- Second, oxygen helps to inhibit the formation of harmful bacteria and fungi, which can cause root rot and other diseases.
- Finally, oxygen can help increase nutrient uptake by plant roots.
Plant respiration is an important part of photosynthesis. This doesn’t mean the plant has no oxygen. We all have circulatory systems in which oxygen flows through us, but plant circulators do not distribute the same amount of oxygen we do. The plants must take oxygen from their roots and release it on their tops (leaves).
