In the mid 1970's a group of scientists, engineers and technicians came together with a common goal, to advance agricultural technology by a quantum leap; together they created the General Hydroponics Company.
Today, over twenty years later, General Hydroponics is a leading innovator in the field of hydroponics with factories in North America and Europe. Their products are used by NASA in preparation for hydroponics on the International Space Station. Numerous laboratories and universities throughout the world use their products for teaching and research; others use their products for commercial crop production as well as high-tech gardening.
