INDOOR GROWING BLOG

Indoor Growing Blog Topics:

This indoor growing blog is to exchange useful information with the progressive Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) community. The topics for this indoor growing blog are ment to benefit cultivators.

Increasing Production Quality, Capacity, and Consistency

CEA enterprises differentiate their products and build their brands by consistently delivering quality goods. These goods are typically void of pesticides, herbicides, or fungicides. These organizations are tasked with creatively utilizing their controlled growing compartments to optimize production. This is increasingly being done with new multi-leveled grow systems along with precision climate and irrigation control. Developmen and adoption of agricultural technology will continue as these solutions become more affordable and more capable.

Increasing Cultivation Asset Value and Enterprise Profitability

Cultivation companies are more profitable when their resources are utilized efficiently, and production is maximized without compromising quality. Also, property (land), plant (facilities), and equipment (machines) are more valuable to owners and potential acquirers when they are fully operable, intelligent, energy efficient, maintainable, reliable, and readily scalable for their future production needs.

Increasing Resource Efficiency and Sustainability

This indoor growing blog will continue to identify creative means of reducing labor, energy, and water intensity. This is because less inputs means a more profitable and sustainable operation. The solutions to reduce these inputs come in many forms including energy efficient designs, renewable energy systems, industrial process automation, precision irrigation techniques, and other related agricultural technology.

Increasing Biological, Microbial, and Food Safety

Consistent production of perishable agricultural goods means no supply interruptions in the cultivation process. Many of the risks for supply disruption are biological or microbial and can be prevented with proper environmental design, integrated pest management, and food safe practices.

Reducing Labor Intensity Through Automation

There are many labor-intensive steps in the cultivation process including seeding, cutting (cloning), rooting (propagation), transplanting (potting), growing, harvesting, cleaning, and sanitizing. Therefore, it is easy to see why labor is one of the main input costs for growers and why working stations and procedures must be designed for ergonomics, efficiency, and scalability.

Complying with Regulatory Agency Demands

There are numerous regulatory agencies and governmental bodies that directly affect the planning and operation of CEA organizations. One of the goals of this forum is to identify those governing bodies and discuss applicable requirements for indoor growers.

  1. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.
    You clearly know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your site when you could be giving us
    something enlightening to read?
