Two emerging products are making news in the cannabis cultivation industry. An innovative greenhouse flooring and an advanced greenhouse design are producing some big rewards for industrialized cannabis and large greenhouse growers. Let’s take a look at both in more detail.
High-Tech Hybrid GreenhouseThe latest in greenhouse design includes a hybrid version of the traditional greenhouse. What is a hybrid greenhouse?
Hybrid design takes the best characteristics of outdoor growing, indoor cultivation and greenhouse cannabis growing and combines them into a uniquely-engineered grow building. The hybrid greenhouse has the wall structure of a industrialized warehouse with the glass roof of a more recognizable greenhouse.
With a hybrid greenhouse, you get the natural characteristics of outdoor growing and the total ability to control your growing environment that you get with indoor grow rooms. Because of the greenhouse roof, the hybrid greenhouse receives the full spectrum of free sunlight found in other greenhouse designs.
While indoor growing allows you to produce cannabis throughout the year and in every season, the energy used for lighting and ventilation can be very costly. Hybrid greenhouse design is actually very energy efficient and eco-friendly. It uses sunlight and provides good air circulation and humidity control, which can be challenging for indoor growers, industrialized warehouse and plant factories.
