Abstract: A hydroponic method of growing plants from seeds. In the method, different growth phases are carried out under different photosynthetic photon flux densities and, preferably, under specifically adjusted ratios of red, blue, green, and, optionally, yellow light to one another. In some embodiments, irrigation is achieved by the ebb and flow phenomenon.
