This senior level Agriculture class at Warren County High School is conducting research on growing different varieties of leaf lettuce in a hydroponic growing system. Jeffrey Copeland, Zachary Evans, Chad Faulkner are conducting this research during the Fall 2011 semester. They are using a hydroponic growing system purchased from American Hydroponics in Arcata California. Check out their website at www.amhydro.com
Hydroponics Will Continue at WCHS
The research that this class conducted will be used by other classes to produce additional lettuce crops. The program will look at growing additional vegetables hydroponically.
