Abstract

This community service activity aims to introduce hydroponic cultivation techniques using the wick system to the community. This method was chosen due to its simplicity, low cost, and ability to produce high-quality plants even in limited spaces. The activity begins with theoretical training on the basic principles of hydroponics, followed by hands-on practice in creating a wick system using locally sourced materials. Participants are involved in every stage, from seed selection to plant care. Evaluation is conducted through the observation of plant growth and feedback from participants. Results show that participants were able to successfully implement the system, producing fresh vegetables in a relatively short time. This activity is expected to raise community awareness about the importance of sustainable agriculture and local food availability through easy-to-apply hydroponic methods.
