Gardens in Colleges Man-kind creates such reminiscing beauty beyond garden gates. For this purpose schools should teach students to create their own gardens or to participate in one improving the environment. Gardening isn’t the most popular hobby, but it’s crucially beneficial. Grade schools fulfilled the mission of starting gardens and by doing so their produce and student involvement show as a success. The school and community around benefit with the plant life grown.

with controlled environmental conditions that allow crops to be grown all year round by using hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics to create an artificial environment (Clemson 2011). Hydroponics is the cultivation of plants by placing roots in liquid nutrient solutions rather than in soil, Aeroponics is the growing of plants by suspending their roots in the air, and aquaponics…

There are branches of this type of growing without soil that relate to hydroponics such as aquaponics, fogponics, and aeroponics. Hydroponic systems are created to allow the crop to grow; the most common systems essentially suspend the root of the crop in water sans a growing medium. There are of course more advanced growing systems, and various…
