Soilless Farming: Better For The Planet?
The Green Revolution solved the food shortage problem, but now, we humans need a new revolution to preserve and conserve natural resources– a “soil-less” revolution.

Yeah. It's called Aquaponics. The North Koreans are kinda forced to rely on soilless cultivation techniques because United Nations purposefully destroyed more than 75% of their arable land in the Korean War.

All the flower seeds for #Garden2025 are soaking in water. I like to let them sit for at least 24 hours, then sow them in their pots of soilless mix, which are also sitting in water. Then I wash the bowls and do the same with all the vegetable seeds.

Harnessing Algal Biomass: Superabsorbent and Biostimulant Hydrogels for Seed Germination in Soilless Cultivation
Hydrogels are emerging as sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based foams and pots in horticulture due to their high porosity, enhancing water and nutrient retention. This study develops κ-carrageenan (Carr)-based hydrogels incorporating hydrolyzed (HSW) and nonhydrolyzed red seaweed (WSW) (0–50 wt %) to introduce biostimulant properties for soilless cultivation. Hydrogels were analyzed for swelling in different media, solubility, microstructure (SEM), physicochemical interactions (FTIR, XRD), and mechanical properties, revealing high porosity, superabsorbent behavior (swelling up to 6000%), and reduced compression modulus with increasing seaweed content. Their biostimulant effect was assessed on Arabidopsis thaliana, with 20 wt % HSW hydrogels promoting enhanced root and shoot growth. Additionally, the hydrogels inhibited Fusarium solani, demonstrating antifungal properties. These results highlight the potential of Carr-seaweed hydrogels as multifunctional substrates for sustainable plant cultivation.
