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

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!

Axial Inline Fans are more ideally suited to inlet or circulation applications given their high-flow, low pressure characteristics. Bring cooler air into the ground level (opposite corner to the extraction fan) of the tent/grow room area through a small amount of ducting. The position promotes movement of air throughout the room which serves to eliminate hot spots and to maintain optimal air pressure inside the room/tent.

A small oscillating fan Wall Fan or Clip Fan should be used to mix the air as it moves thru the grow room ensuring all areas receive sufficient fresh air for your plants. The overall system should provide slightly greater extraction to ensure no unfiltered air escapes the room.
