Vertical hydroponic system - 5SM

This model of the growing system is designed for rooms with limited height, while also utilizing the maximum potential of space and light in it.

It is a hydroponic apparatus utilizing the technique of the nutrient film (NFT-nutrient film

technique), which is arranged in a vertical growing system with gravity flow-through of nutrient water to cultivated plants.

In this system there is no solid medium, the roots are placed directly into the water which flows through the drainage system over the entire area of each successive planting container, it also oxidizes all roots without light (to eliminate the formation of algae).

By this design is ensured an even supply of nutrients to each plant in the system.

This system allows an area of about 2,5m² in an area of about 5m². Theoretically, it may be twice as powerful than horizontal systems and allows for the harvest to be twice as high, for the same power lighting. It is also economical in the use of light in the middle of the pentagon, where the light illuminates an area much larger than the horizontal systems.

Further features: easy maintenance, either when mixing the simple nutrient solution and by its control and good access to the plants for their maintenance as well as during harvesting. The issue of waste in a system using solid media (clay, rockwool...), is reduced, which is a financial benefit for each harvest, also reducing the time taken to dispose of waste or cleaning of reusable material (expanded clay). The only waste is the root system of plants, which after opening the lid is simply pulled out and can be recycled as compost.

Planting containers can be easily removed and washed.

Our NFT 4D VERTICAL system can also be used as an Aquaponic system

Lamps, LED, TECO water coolers and even Cool Tubes with piping for cooling light sources shown in the photos are not part of the production systems. They can be ordered on request.
