Hydroponics Quite frankly we continue to dabble in this area but are "backing away" from growing this way. Our main reason has been because of frustration over availability of good and proven organic fertilizers that are available. We've tried some of them but they seem to be gloppy messes for the most part. We tried one that's supposed to be THE one in other parts of the world and found that it burned the leaves and caused untold damage to the plants. We have created a new site specific to growing alpine strawberries hydroponically. We are now offering a kit to grow plugs that can be used in many hydroponic systems including the Aerogarden™.
