ABOUT hydroponics

Vertical farming is the practice of growing crops using soilless farming techniques such as hydroponics, aquaponics, and aeroponics in vertically stacked layers. It often incorporates controlled-environment agriculture, which aims to optimise plant growth with nutrients, lighting and pH. Vertical farming is perfect for high density living areas or to save space.

BENEFITS OF vertical FARMING

Learn more about VERTICAL GARDENS

Hydroponics is simply described as growing plants without soil. Hydroponics allows you to control more of the variables including pH levels, lighting and nutrients for optimal plant growth and produce yields. Water is the main method of delivering the nutrients to the plant’s roots, combined with growing media to help support the plant. Hydroponically grown plants dip their roots directly into nutrient-rich solutions, so plants get more of what they need much faster and easier. Hydroponic farming can be used in locations where soil conditions are too poor to support farming, or where space is limited. It can be done anytime and anywhere!

Hydroponic Lighting Management Units- Urban Green Farms. Enables gardeners to safely and easily control their grow lights.

The LMU serves 3 main functions:

Time Control: LMU can simulate any light cycle by using the 24-Hour timer.
Power Control: LMU can control, distribute and protect the load by using the circuit breakers.
Time Delay: This feature reduces the startup current and prevents voltage drop in the network by staggering the ignition of the load.

LMU24 = 24 timed sockets. These timed sockets control the light cycle of connected ballasts using the 24-Hour Timer.

3- 4LIVE: NUMBER OF LIVE SOCKETS 4LIVE = 4 always-on LIVE sockets. These can be used for fans, pumps, heaters or other appliances.

4- 12ON / 12OFF: SIDE A / SIDE B OPERATION This indicates the number of HALF ON / HALF OFF sockets. 12ON / 12OFF = 12 times sockets are on while 12 time sockets are off.

5- 24ON: ALL ON OPERATION This indicates the number of ALL ON sockets. 24ON = 24 timed sockets will be on at once.

6- TIME DELAY: LMU IS EQUIPPED WITH TIME DELAY. 7- 1 PHASE/240V: INCOMING VOLTAGE TYPE This indicates the incoming voltage type of the LMU, either 1 PHASE/240V or 3 PHASE/415V. 8- 100A MAX: MAXIMUM PEAK CURRENT RATING This is the maximum load that can be safely supported by the LMU. This maximum should only be sustained for 4 hours. 9- 80A CONTINUOUS: MAXIMUM CONTINUOUS CURRENT RATING This is the maximum load that can be safely supported by the LMU in continuous, 24-hour operation. 10- 50Hz: INCOMING POWER FREQUENCY Both 1 PHASE and 3 PHASE power have a frequency of 50Hz in Australia and New Zealand.
