  • E‑Commerce Strategies for Hydroponic Growers
    Dr. Russell Sharp discusses e-commerce strategies for hydroponic businesses, advising against competing in commodity leafy greens and recommending niche, high‑value preserved products like freeze‑dried herbs, pickles, and gourmet fermented goods. He outlines marketing channels (social ads, trade shows, brand storytelling), logistics considerations (cold chain vs preserved goods), alternatives like ornamentals and cut flowers, and cautions about high costs and platform pitfalls such as selling on Amazon. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/fertiliser/liquid-gold-unique-complete-fertiliser/ Greens For Good OnlyHydroponics Max Green Farms Gabbar Farms LEAFY (Leafy Scot) Oasis Hydroponics Sunway XFarms Vexotics Dizon Farms Delivers Biogrove Foodstories Kaze Living ElaGreens GetBlok Farms Greens For Good OnlyHydroponics Sunden Farms Urban Greens Revol Greens Vertical Roots Village Farms International Oishii Soli Organic Square Roots Grow Vertical Harvest Smallhold Fischer Farms Market 114 Sustainable Farm by Custom Cuisine Lettuce Grow Plenty Farm Fresh to You Live Greens Local Greens Farm Urban Sprouts Farm FreshBox Farms Green Spirit Farms Eden Green Farms Green Sense Farms LightHouse Farms Iron Ox Farms Bowery Urban Growers Goodleaf Farms Farm One VertiCrop Fresh Origins Sundrop Farms BrightFarms Hollandia Produce / Pete’s Living Greens Mae Farms CropOne Holdings City Farm Co Pure Greens Growers National Greens Eden Organic Greens HydroFarm Produce Co Blue River Farms NuLeaf Farms Urban Leaf Growers FreshField Farms Terra Greens HydroHarvest GreenLeaf Vertical Farms

  • Bootstrap to Success: Ditch credit for your customers
    Dr. Russell Sharp explains why bootstrapping is the best route for many hydroponic ventures, emphasizing unique products, testing market demand, and protecting cash flow. He warns against offering customer credit—suggesting pro forma payments and using strong order books to secure bank loans if scaling is needed—plus practical tips for long-term sustainability. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/fertiliser/liquid-gold-unique-complete-fertiliser/ Geoffrey Guy Brian Whittle Justin Gover Tom Whettem Adam Windish Paul Kenward Ben Langley Gabriel Newman Sam Ashton Jon Robson Maximillian White Mason Soiza Oliver Soar Scott Stephen Peter Zownir Graham Woodward Rupa Shah Dr Susan Jane Clenton Frances Crewdson Tom Gray Mike Morgan-Giles Nick Pateras Ricardo Geada Dr Sunil Arora Damien Bove Sam Cannon Hamish Clegg Matt Hughes James Leavesley Dr Shanna Marrinan Paul North Sonal Patel Tony Reeves Clare Holliday James Duckenfield Adam George Martin Dickie Richard Reed Christian Angermayer Maria Raga Irina Elena Haivas Sophia Bendz Fiona Pathiraja Michelle Tempest Leafy Tunnel Salica Measure 8 Venture Partners Casa Verde Capital Deepbridge Capital Kindred Capital

  • Solenoids & Drippers: Master Hydroponic Water Flow
    Dr. Russell Sharp breaks down how water is controlled in hydroponic systems: pressure‑regulated drippers set the flow rate, spikes only deliver the water, and solenoid valves control timing. He explains why pipe size matters little, how blockage and water hardness affect drippers, and why pH or RO water are common choices. This short episode also previews dosing and fertigation meters to be covered next, and offers practical tips for automating reliable irrigation. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/fertiliser/liquid-gold-unique-complete-fertiliser/   Gotham Greens FresH2O Growers Thanet Earth The Green House Ely The Green House Sussex Village Farms International Vertical Harvest Farms Eden Green Technology Plenty AeroFarms GoodLeaf Farms Just Vertical ZipGrow Harvest Today Freight Farms Smallhold Elevate Farms Raiz Vertical Farms Eden Grow Systems Homer Farms Growponics Ltd.

  • Egypt’s Greenhouse Push: Army-Driven Hydroponics vs Morocco’s Desalination Boom
    Dr. Russell Sharp explores Egypt’s push into large-scale greenhouse and hydroponic production, driven in part by the military, and compares it to Morocco’s desalination-led expansion of fresh produce. The episode covers greenhouse construction, water supply challenges, berry and high-value crop ambitions, and how military involvement affects local agriculture and supply chains. It examines implications for food security, competition between countries, and the potential benefits and drawbacks of soilless cultivation when pursued at national scale. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/ Tutankhamun Cleopatra Ramses II Nefertiti Imhotep Hatshepsut Omar Sharif Umm Kulthum Taha Hussein Naguib Mahfouz Gamal Abdel Nasser Anwar Sadat Mohamed Salah Dalida Amr Diab Ahmed Zewail Saad Zaghloul Boutros Boutros-Ghali Youssef Chahine Farouk Hosni

  • Don't Feed Dormant Plants: The Hidden Nitrite Danger
    Dr. Russell Sharp explains why you should drastically reduce or stop fertilizing perennial crops during winter dormancy or cold storage. Plants take up little or no nutrients in cold conditions, and added nitrogen—especially ammonium—can convert to toxic nitrites that harm cellular respiration, photosynthesis and root health. He recommends dialling fertiliser back to near zero during dormancy, avoiding ammonium-based formulations in cold media, and resuming accurate dosing only when plants are actively growing or in heated environments. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/fertiliser/liquid-gold-unique-complete-fertiliser/ Rattan Lal – Ohio State University Asmeret Asefaw Berhe – U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science Johan Six – ETH Zürich Diana H.
