N.F.T., or Nutrient Film Technique, is an efficient method of growing plants by providing a slowly moving film (stream) of fertilizer solution (nutrient) to roots in a flat-bottomed, gently sloped channel (the gully). The plant is started in a small root cube in which it remains for life, and is placed in pre-drilled holes in the gully. With the help of a small submersible pump and gravity, the nutrient solution is constantly recirculated through the gullies and back to the reservoir. This provides a constant balance and optimum conditions for thriving plant growth. Our NFT Gully Kits use two distinct shapes of gullies, made for different plants. The 2"x4" gully is best used for lighter weight and "head-type" plants such as fancy lettuce, herbs and other short crops. The 3"x6" gullies, which we call Rockwool gullies, are best used for heavier and longer term plants such as tomatoes, peppers, strawberries & cucumbers. These gullies have specially routed square holes that accomodate 3 1/2" Rockwool cubes, which provide plant support and help keep the roots moist. 4'x4' Standard Gully Kit Grow nursery-quality plants and vegetables with the NFT Gully hydroponic growing system. It includes our standard gullies for herbs and lettuce which measure 2"x4". The gullies have been specially designed with flat bottoms and special ridges for even flow and are made from FDA-approved, 100% recycled HDPE plastic.
