Hi there
In response to wether or not hydroponic gardening is organic.
The main difference between hydroponic fertilizer and dirt fertilizer is that hydroponic gardening fertilizers contain the proper amounts of all of the essential micro-nutrients that regular fertilizers do not include. The plants are expected to find these nutrients in the soil. So therefore it is safe to say that Hydroponic Gardening is organic.
Hope this Helps
