Why use Hydroponic growing ebb and flood bench on wheel for greenhouse?
* This system is easy to learn and can be fine tuned to suit a variety of crops.
* Increase Greenhouse efficiency: improves production capacity by having 70%-80% space in greenhouse.
* Grow plants uniformly and reduce foliar disease.
* Increase in plant uniformity may be the result of more even and complete moistening of the growth medium and better distribution of nutrients absorbed by capillary flow.
* Save labour
* A single person can water thousands of plants by operating the flooding system manually or with the help of a computer.
* Amount of time needed to water the crop drops dramatically.
* Decrease in labor need will help free up workers to do other tasks.
* Save water and fertilizer
* According to research, water and fertilizer usage was cut over 50% by using a close system since water and fertilizer(nutrient solution) are recirculated and not lost by leaching or runoff.
* Less fertilizer is needed, resulting a in lower cost to produce the same quality product.
* Increase safety (Long term benefit)
* It is safer for the environment as water containing fertilizers and chemicals will not leach into our valuable drinking water supplies, helping our children and future generations.
* Less chemicals were needed, cutting down on workers exposure to pesticides and fungicides.
* Reduce risks of getting injuries among workers when doing repetitious manual handling tasks
* Cost effective
* Existing bench frames can be retrofitted.
* The productivity of system is maintained at a high level due to 70%-80% space saving in greenhouse and the reduction of labor, water, fertilizers and chemicals etc.
