Roots benefit from these periods of wetness and dryness. Deep Water Culture simply submerges roots in a nutrient solution. Less common hydroponics systems include the Wick System (where a fabric material wicks nutrient solution from the reservoir up to the roots), Nutrient Film Technique (where nutrient solution runs down long channels or tubes and passes over bare roots), and Aeroponics (where nutrients are administered via misting suspended and bare-rooted plants).
