What is the purpose of aerating the nutrient solution?

You know, sometimes you simply have to use shovel to make soil to breathe, especially in the spring. When I’ve been planting a rose few weeks ago, there were some hard roots in the soil, that’s why shovel also helped me to slay them. This resource I could find ( website: https://bestyardproducts.com/best-root-slayer-shovel/ ) helped with getting the best root slayer shovel. It also explains how to maintain with different garden tools.

Roots need oxygen for the plant to grow. The bubbler puts oxygen in the water and the roots absorb this oxygen. Our Floating Garden Kitchen Garden Kit is non-aerated. As the plants respire, the oxygen concentration in the nutrient solution slowly decreases. Without aeration, oxygen transport into the nutrient solution takes place at the boundary between the floating bed and nutrient tray, the fill port, and through the net pots. This kit is not appropriate for long growth cycle plants such as tomatoes and cucumbers. To help aerate the roots in the Kitchen Garden Kit, it is recommended that you periodically raise the planting bed out of the nutrient solution and “dunk” a few times to help aerate the roots and the nutrient solution. We will soon offer an optional air pump and aerator for the Kitchen Garden Kit which will increase production of lettuces and herbs such as basil. Our Regular and Advanced Floating Garden kits are each supplied with an air pump and aerator/s to help oxygenate
