Apart from the Hydroponics System and Technology, Greenhouses are the
most important features of growing in Hydroponics.
Advance Hydroponics is considered a “World Authority” on creating a favorable
growing environment for “foreign” plants in the tropics.
Temperate oriented vegetables can only be grown in the tropics by cultivating them in a controlled
environment, a “greenhouse”. The greenhouse must not be a “Hot-House” as many imported
into the Philippines are. There is a special design that naturally expels the hot air by pressure difference, a naturally occurring phenomenon due to the curved design of the greenhouse roof.
The greenhouse is of modular design, each module being 6.4m x 4m and locking
together to form any size and configuration required up to 5,000 sq. mtrs. The metal
frames are hot dipped galvanized to ensure long life without rust intrusion. Assembly
and dismantling of the greenhouse is a simple process, allowing for complete
removal of the infrastructure to another site should the need arise.
The greenhouse will be fully equipped
with insect repelling net, roll-up-roll-down all
weather UV protected plastic curtains on the walls and windows. The roof is also
covered with UV, Sun diffused, anti-viral, 200 micron plastic film. This film is attached to the greenhouse frame by aluminum “locking profiles” making it simple to attach and change the film when necessary.
