RASPBERRIES

Good good,

Today we have a very special topic

⤝ RASPBERRY⤞

It is a raspberry fruit, it is small rounded with smooth skin. The pulp is very aromatic and its flavor is bittersweet. It can be eaten raw or it can be used to make jams, jellies and drinks. It can also be found frozen.

Today we are going to talk about the benefits of planting raspberries by the hydroponics method.

WHAT IS THE HYDROPONY METHOD?

Hydroponics is growing plants without using agricultural soil. In soilless crops, this is replaced by an inert substrate where the nutrients (food) the plant needs to live and produce are delivered in irrigation.

ADVANTAGES OF CULTIVATING BY THIS METHOD

Products grown by hydroponics provide different benefits, since they are healthier and contain more nutrients than traditionally grown foods; It should be noted that crops with high quality symptoms can be obtained, with better flavor and in less time.

Thanks to its striking color (black, blue, red, ...), its half sweet, half sour flavor, and its antioxidant power, raspberries are one of the most consumed fruits in the world, especially red.

BENEFITS OF RASPBERRIES

• Helps prevent cardiovascular disease: thanks to polyphenols, also prevents platelet reduction and reduces blood pressure

• Cancer prevention : thanks to the polyphenols it contains, it prevents tumor growth and reduces inflammation

• Diabetes management : The fibers they contain keep blood sugar constant.

• For the brain: Studies show that it helps improve memory and improves cognitive ability.

• The eyes: This fruit contains vitamin C, which helps keep eyes healthy, protects from ultraviolet light, and in adults helps decrease eye degeneration.

• Digestion : Prevents constipation, helps eliminate toxins from the system

If we cultivate this plant through hydroponics, we would be saving half the water that we normally use when planting it. Furthermore, the remaining water can be reused, it does not need its root to grow much in search of water and nutrients, it does not need much space and increase the quantity, which is why we think it is a good idea to implement this form of cultivation in raspberries

And what plant would you like to cultivate?
