Soil Management
Concerns the preparation and maintenance of soil or growth medium to optimize plant nutrition and support.
Irrigation
Ensures that plants receive the correct amount of water, which is critical for plant growth and nutrient uptake.
Shading
Protects plants from excessive sunlight and heat, which can lead to stress and burning, and manages light levels for optimal photosynthesis.
Humidity Control
Regulates the moisture levels in the air, which is crucial for preventing disease and maintaining plant transpiration.
CO2 Enrichment
Increases carbon dioxide levels in the greenhouse to enhance photosynthesis and plant growth, leading to improved crop yields.
Cooling
Lowers the internal greenhouse temperature on hot days to prevent heat stress on plants and maintain a conducive growing environment.
Pest Management
Involves the prevention and control of pests and diseases to maintain healthy crops and a clean environment.
Heating
Maintains optimal temperature for plant growth, especially during colder months, to prevent freezing and ensure year-round production.
Ventilation
Controls the greenhouse climate, regulates temperature and humidity, and prevents plant diseases.
Lighting
Provides supplemental light to extend the growing day or season, ensuring adequate photosynthesis during short daylight hours or in shaded areas.
