Introduction

Hi and welcome to the Greenleaf Systems blog.

First a little bit about who we are:
We run two sister hydroponic shops and an online shop under the Greenleaf Systems banner. Based in Liverpool and High Wycombe, we have over 10 years of hydroponics experience, both in agriculture and as avid hobbyists. We are still a relatively young concern with our Bootle shop in its fourth year of trading, the High Wycombe shop opened this February, but we are constantly growing and our aim is to continue to compete with the more established companies in our industry by offering a professional service, a wide range of useful hydroponics systems and supplies at keen prices and above all, excellent advice. Whether you are looking for a foolproof system with complete and easy to follow instructions or want advice on the more complex and scientific aspects of hydroponics, we can help.

Why start a blog? I have often wondered why people bother to keep a blog. I have never kept a diary myself which made it harder for me to understand I suppose. I came up with the idea to start one chiefly because I had read in an article about search engines that it can be a good way of increasing traffic to our site. I looked at some of the examples given in the article and was surprised at how transparently cynical some of them were. Basically, some were little more than various paragraphs of stolen text put up just to get into search engine results....always annoying when you search for something, click a result and find a couple of lines of rudimentary or useless information and a load of sponsored search results.
I don't want to do that at all...I'll be posting a journal with pictures of the plants we currently have growing in various hydroponic systems, tips and advice, trials, side-by-side comparisons and information on new products. There'll probably be plenty of useless bollocks and ranting too but it shouldn't get in the way of what I plan to be an informative and useful blog!

I'll try to keep it daily to begin with....we'll see how it goes :)
