Food Crop Systems
Food Crop Systems
Smart, vertical or horizontal systems.
Our systems
We sell and install complete hydroponic vegetable systems, both vertical and horizontal, to suit the needs of every individual or community.
Vertical food crop systems
This type of system makes the most use of your space. You can place it on a rooftop, in a greenhouse or anywhere else where there is enough light, and it has access to water.
What it is for
It is the ideal solution for small plants like lettuce, spinach, different types of kales, cabbage and aromatic plants. This system uses water in a very efficient way and requires little maintenance.
You can use different levels of automation like adding our RDI System or a pump and reduce the work.
Performance
On a standard system using only 9 square meters, you can accommodate 300 crops of seedlings, and you can produce 150 kg of fresh lettuce in 55 days.
For this type of crop, the system will use only 10.5 litres of water and 21 grams of nutrients/day.
Design and installation
Depending on the size, our vertical systems can be produced and installed in a matter of days. Installed correctly and properly maintained, this system has a minimum of five years of shelf life.
Multi-storey gardens
Depending on the type of vegetable or fruit, our multi-storey gardens can hold over 100 vegetable seedlings occupying a relatively small space (140-180 cm in diameter).
You can have as much as eight layers for your multi-storey garden. If you are interested in our solutions, please use the form at the bottom of this page, and we will get back to you with more information, prices or delivery details.
Horizontal food crop systems
These systems are designed to support tall crops. Crops grown under hydroponics are insulated from soil borne diseases by use of inert media. This eliminates chances of crop failure while substantially reducing costs incurred on pesticides and weeding. This system requires more horizontal and vertical space.
What it is for
It is the best solution for crops like tomatoes, cucumber, capsicum or different varieties of kales. This system uses water in a very efficient way and requires very little maintenance. You can use different levels of automation, like adding our RDI System or a pump to reduce the amount of work.
Performance
In a 120 square meters you can plant 500 stems of tomatoes. In this setup you that can produce up to 9.000 kg of tomatoes in 9 months. This crop will use less than 150 litres of water and 143 grams of nutrients per day.
Design and installation
Depending on the size, our horizontal systems can be produced and installed in a matter of days. Installed correctly and properly maintained, this type of system has a minimum of five years of shelf life.
Greenhouses
Both systems, vertical and horizontal, can be protected by greenhouses. We offer custom solutions for greenhouses to fit any requirements. We can build the structure of your greenhouse from timber or metal, and we can cover it with heavy-duty polyethylene or shade/pest net.
