Deep Water Culture

Deep Water Culture

Deep Water Culture (DWC) is an aquaponic system where plants grow with their roots submerged directly in a nutrient-rich solution. This method is favored for its simplicity and ability to support high-yield crops like lettuce and herbs. Oxygenation is critical in DWC, as plant roots must receive an adequate supply of oxygen to prevent suffocation and root decay. This is typically achieved using air pumps and diffusers. DWC offers several advantages, such as faster plant growth and efficient water use since the same water is continuously cycled between the plants and fish. However, careful attention to nutrient levels, pH balance, and water temperature is necessary to maintain healthy plant development. This system is particularly useful for urban farming or where space is limited, as it maximizes vertical growth.
