to explain everything would take awhile. the basics behind it is the root sytem is grown in water. the water is circulated through any number of methods ( run a search on the types listed below ) placing oxygen in the water. the roots love this and grow out of control. since the plant does not have to spend its energy looking for water it will use that energy to grow you big beutiful buds. a cheap preffered method is deep water culture or bubble buckets/tubs. some other types are ebb and flow, drip, aeroponics, NFT,ect. run a search and read some threads to find out which one suits you best
