RE: Hydroponic Produce...A Photo Essay
The power of Hydroponics. I tell you, anyone who brings up hothouse tomatoes grown for supermarkets as the "Taste you get from hydro tomatoes" has never had real tomatoes in hydro before. At least not done right.
Awesome looking produce! :D 5 stars and an upvote. :)
You are so right about that, The difference is picking ripe versus picking green and shipping across a continent or over an ocean. I would guess that 80% of your grocery store tomatoes are hydro grown, but they pick early and ship them for days or wharehouse them and pump in ethylene gas to produce redness but not ripeness.
And what a difference! :D
