GROW YOUR FOOD SUSTAINABLY WITH PINDFRESH HYDROPONICS

Hydroponics is the technique of cultivating food in an inert medium where nutrients are provided to the plant via a flow (air or water). It means that you can produce food with minimum maintenance and in any atmosphere. In today’s world, it’s the only way to assure that your supply of foodstuff is clean/fresh and pesticide-free. When you grow food–you control what goes in the food and finally on your plate. It’s better for the ecosystem, you save more than 50% water, and because you use no pesticides, it’s purer and tastier.  Pindfresh, a startup based out of Chandigarh, is helping people to grow their food sustainably by providing them with home hydroponics and urban gardening kits.

Chandigarh-based Somveer Anand who started Pindfresh in the year 2015, says, “Hydroponics is a niche trend in India and not very popular among the masses. Though, it is cost-effective as well as a sustainable form of farming. I started PindFresh India’s first largest chain of hydroponics to provide this technique to everyone in the form of kits that can help people grow  their food at home in an eco-friendly way. We often buy cabbage for Rs 150 or more from the market while if we use this technology and grow our food the same cabbage can be procured for ₹4 or ₹5. Use of this technology will not only ensure the cheaper rates for vegetables but also if this technology is used in growing plants used in the pharmaceutical industry it can curb the rising prices of medicines.”

Pindfresh uses raw materials like coco-pit, plastic, rubber pipes which are all made in India with love. He says, “I believe in providing service. Thus we have designed our hydroponic step-ups simple to use. They are lightweight and viable. It uses 30% of water and minimal residues, however, there is no limitation for cultivating any plant, and time consumption is  equivalent to a field farm. Apart from this, it contributes to our ecosystem as it uses no pesticides, no nitrification of rivers, recyclable water, no carbon mills.”
