Hydroponic Vegetable
The Hydroponic Vegetable Program began in the spring of 1999 with a USDA/CSREES grant and additional funds from Ohio State University Extension. The program is designed to increase profitability of hydroponic greenhouse vegetable businesses in Ohio by providing horticultural, marketing, business planning, and greenhouse design support. The support is provided by direct contact with individuals, seminars, tours, interactive Internet web sites, branded product development, and a demonstration greenhouse at the Toledo Botanical Garden, Toledo, Ohio.
