I just started to do some basement hydroponics. I have a beefsteak and a couple of brandywines set up Kratky style. I will see if I can get them all the way. My hope is to get a whole produce system going down there and grow some field crops to flesh things out.

I've been operating a 40 bucket, dutch bucket setup for 6 years, it out produces my in ground garden all day long, I don't use chemical fertilizer, mine comes from ground/pulverised fish. My cantelope, cucumbers and tomatoes love the stuff,, still battle with the bugs though,, last year I planted spearmint, and mint around the cant's/cuc's to keep squash bugs down, and it did really well. Scaling it back to 16 buckets this year, due to a back injury.. Nowhere this advanced,, lol I'm lucky to have the timer on my water system. Glad I have a well because it sucks the water when the heat gets up outside.

Dutch are no.1 in north europe! I live in germany and I eat sunstream tomatoes everyday! thanks Ollandia!!

There's no 'duping' when it comes to a commercially grown produce. Anyone who can successfully grow their own are likely to have better tasting produce. It's the price you pay for buying fruit and veg at a supermarket.

Disagree, I have also grown in both methods. Hydroponic, if done poorly, can result in poor tasting tomatoes. Done adequately, will likely taste as good as soil based tomatoes, and done well they'll taste better. I think you need to do some research on sustainability, perhaps more importantly scalability, and how they're related to changes in overall population.

The taste has also a LOT to do with the VARIETIES grown. That part is probably far more important than HOW it is grown. There, commercial growers have several parameters that they care about, and taste may (sadly) not be the most important one for them. Yield is very important, resistance of the plant, how long tomatoes last once picked, and so on...

The heirloom tomatoes such as Black Krim, or Cherokee Purple taste fantastic. But if you are trying to raise them for market the problems compound with the volume. They do not store and ship well. Second is they have no resistance to disease. A small patch of a thousand plants can easily become overwhelmed by a simple fungus, this requires constant spraying with the mild organic certified spray. This season had a cold wet spring and we never did get ahead of it. We didn't market any ripe heirloom at all. Growing is never as easy as the comment section says it is.

Nice set up, even though I'm a stickler for all organic I can still appreciate what they're trying. I wonder what an organic permaculture setup would do in an enclosed environment like that with some automation involved.

+Goku Vegeta I agree, the Dutch have a 20 year edge on U.S. growers. Their yields are a minimum of 20% over our best test facilities let alone our greenhouse farms. Once again they have been doing this a lot longer and now have been doing this organically since 2005(?). They HAVE to grow organically because of government regulations. Their brix levels are super high and in some cases, off the charts. They had to make brix testers that could actually read the high levels that the conventional brix testers could not read. So hats off to the Netherlands. If only they were a little more open source, food production for the global population would be greatly increased. Unfortunately they have learned from the U.S. that greed is good and the bottom line is to keep secrets to improve profits.

Hydroponic, "growing without soil". The solution of three major and four minor along with six trace elements is mixed when needed to be supplied to the plants. Since it is not grown in soil there is no reserve of nutrients for the plant to draw from. The other elements available in the soil provides "taste" that the nutrient solution doesn't supply. The sterile solution and media is very helpful in producing a product that stores and ships well. Which is very necessary if you are growing for market. There is a huge difference between growing a few dozen plants for home use and growing for a market supplying a few thousand families or a few thousand stores. The problems compound with the volume.

Hydroponics is needed over all else in the world to grow food globally. Hydroponics lowers the need for GMO by eliminating the negative conditions that have pushed for GMO to be created. The number one Organic fertilizer is sh!t, literally, that is what manure is. I rather eat food made from the bare elements than grown in organic sh!t. I eat both organic and hydro, but i have my preference. The world as a whole needs to be at 99% efficiency to sustain a healthy population. Hydroponics delivers that without GMO and relying rapid weather changes. As for all the tastes difference of hydro vs organic, it is possible with the correct mixtures of nutrients to grow the same tasting produce indoors, not easy but with an operation like this guys i bet he either knows how or is working on it. Hydronponic is going to be more favorable over organic because of Di-hydrogen Monoxide. The lack of this material will make hydroponics more favorable around the world as resources are harder to come by. I am a hydroponic grower, i work at a farm to table restaurant that grows and operates its own gardens, hydroponic systems and chickens. We need the best possible option to grow food, if we don't do that then humanity is at serious risk, it's that simple.

Are hydroponics anywhere close to being more profitable? Hydroponics won't be the future of farming until it is. It also has to be able to reach more budget minded consumers. If hydroponics is only accessible to the type of people who buy their groceries from places like Whole Foods and people who can go to the restaurants that talk about how green they are and charge more, hydroponics won't be the future of farming.

Something very simple and natural made complex and difficult

If it had two levels, it would be 40x more productive. With 4 levels it would double again. Why not expand vertically then? Then there is containment, it's clear that it's not isolated enough from how many insects kept flying in front of the camera. They need better solutions to keep insects out, I bet most of them get in when the employees enter or exit the greenhouse. All they have to do is copy the semi conductor industry, they got plenty of methods to prevent containment.
