A hydroponic greenhouse system is one that uses a soil-less media for growing, which provides farmers a higher yield of fresh produce. For many growers, hydroponics represent a faster, cleaner, and more effective way of growing amazing crops in small and non-traditional growing spaces.
The main benefits of hydroponics include increased plant productivity, receiving a high yield per plant per square foot and having fresh produce. Today, there are many varieties of plants grown hydroponically serving many different market segments, including farm stands, grocery stores, restaurants, processing plants and institutions. Hydroponic operations vary in size from small operations (less than 1,000 square feet) to large operations farming many acres.
