Hi, My name is Prescilla. An organic entrepreneur and an enthusiastic urban gardener. InHydro workshop helped me with more insights on the technology behind Hydroponics. Very interactive session. I would really appreciate for another workshop either online or offline it’s fine as I had to cut short the workshop . Thank you and keep spreading knowledge.
The work shop was great! I enjoyed the lecture and loved the tour. Though I feel that the touring experience can be done better with more guides and in smaller groups. It was quite a learning experience. Before coming here I only had very basic knowledge about the subject and the experience there helped me gain much more. I also loved your business proposals. The staff was very nice and helpful. Thank you for this experience. Regards Abdullah Tarin
I came to know about this training via Facebook and so amazed with the delivery and state-of-art facilities at InHydro Noida centre. Thank you team InHydro and Mr. Awneesh for your valuable time and training materials.
I have attended the workshop on Hydroponics,. To be frank, it was one of the rarest workshops i have taken and learnt a lot about a very unique technique of farming. The workshop was very much proper with proper content. I highly recommend to everyone to gain knowledge about vertical farming as a hobby or whoever wishes to make his/her career in a very unique and highly demanding aggrotech domain. Regards : Sumit
