About Home Hydroponics System Setup
Why I Love Urban Hydroponics
I want you to experience the thrill of picking fresh veggies and herbs right from your home. My journey started with a simple question: how can we grow clean food in the city with less fuss? Turns out, going soil-free and using less water does the trick.
What You Get
I set up a rooftop hydroponic farm that’s flexible - fits small corners or bigger open spaces. The system uses vertical channels and a pebble-like medium instead of soil. Plants get their water and nutrients through an automated nutrient delivery system, so you don’t have to worry about daily chores.
- No messy soil, ever
- System runs itself (mostly)
- Compact enough for city homes
The Process
- We chat about what you want and how much space you’ve got
- I design a setup for you, no cookie-cutter solutions
- I install everything, get your first batch of plants going
- You get support, saplings, guidance whenever you need
What You Can Grow
You can try leafy greens like palak, lettuce or spinach; veggies like cherry tomatoes, brinjal, and okra; herbs like pudina (mint), dhania (coriander), and tulsi (basil). Even strawberries, marigolds, aloe vera - it’s pretty wild what grows in these pods.
Real Talk
- Super fresh food, harvested when you want
- No nasty chemicals
- Water use is way lower than regular gardening
- Big harvests even in tiny spaces
I stick around after setup, helping with care and new crops. You get a cleaner, greener way to eat - and I get to share my love for urban gardening solutions.

My Story
Hydrolore started from Dr. Gowsiya’s childhood wonder - plants sleep, plants live! That spark turned into years of digging into plant nutrition and root systems, then hydroponics. Not easy, lot of bumps, but family and mentors kept me going. Now, it’s us - scientists, gardeners, even Krishnappa with his cherry tomatoes. We share what we grow, from Farmlore’s chefs to kids picking strawberries. It’s not just farming, it’s community, real and messy and joyful.
