The cultivation of agricultural crops or ornamental plants in our climate is sharply limited by the cold season. The use of greenhouses in this industry can provide income all year round, and especially in winter, when the cost of agricultural goods increases sharply. The market is constantly offering new technologies for greenhouses that can make caring for plants easier and cheaper.
Innovations concern both the materials from which structures are made and systems for maintaining the internal microclimate. Developers try to take into account all the points that can ensure high yields and competitive quality of products.
Coniferous plants in greenhouses
In the New Technologies greenhouses you can purchase coniferous plants. They are grown in pots or in open ground. Coniferous trees are very popular.
Larch grows the fastest of all conifers. Often, to decorate suburban areas, a coniferous plant of an original type - thuja - is used. The enterprise grows blue spruce trees. Pines are often used by landscape designers in their work. In greenhouses you can buy 2 types of juniper. Common juniper has a woody trunk. Creeping juniper looks beautiful on an alpine hill.
Affordable prices allow you to purchase both large plants in pots and small seedlings. Seedlings are obtained by cuttings and planted in a special room. The seedlings are provided with conditions for the development of the root system.
Frame
The frame forms the basis of the structure, and often accounts for the lion's share of costs. But you shouldn’t save at this stage, because all other parts can be replaced without replacing the frame if it is built from high-quality materials.
Steel
The latest approaches involve designing a frame using Dutch technology within the framework of a special computer program. It is based on the relationship between the thickness of the steel posts and the percentage of light entering inside. Elements that are too thick extend their service life, but reduce productivity due to a lack of light, so it is important to calculate the optimal value, which can only be determined using formulas and digital drawings.
Aluminum
Such frames are currently the most modern, they combine advanced experience and investment in new developments. In addition, such a frame solved the problem of draining rainwater through a gutter with seals for the walls and ceiling, as well as a built-in drain for condensed moisture. This technology helps remove drops that, when dripping onto plants, can cause growth retardation and the development of fungal pathologies.
The aluminum frame is very light, which makes its installation extremely simple and quick. But to protect it from strong winds and hurricanes, it was reinforced with special terminals, which are located at the top point.
Vegetables
The nursery grows many varieties of vegetable seedlings:
- Cucumbers grown in greenhouses have good seedlings.
- The seedlings are intended for planting in open ground or in a greenhouse. Has high productivity during the season.
- Determinate tomatoes are low-growing plants.
- The fruits are juicy and sweetish.
- Indeterminate tomatoes grow well in height. They have large fruits and are disease resistant. In the greenhouses you can see new selections.
- The nursery grows seedlings of onions, zucchini, cabbage and other vegetable crops.
In greenhouses, lovers of flowering and ornamental plants will also find species of interest for themselves.
- Roses. “New Technologies” offers about 140 varieties of roses. They are distinguished by special care and have an unusual appearance. To make selection easier, all varieties are numbered. Can be purchased for cutting.
- Chrysanthemums are also grown for cutting. Wholesalers and ordinary buyers come for flowers 2 times a year during their active flowering period. Perennial dahlias have gained popularity recently. The variety of colors of tulips will delight any gardener. You can choose any plant you like from the catalog.
- Decorative and indoor plants. The New Technologies nursery pays attention to growing ornamental plants to create unique flower beds. Petunias of different colors, orange marigolds, and verbena flowers will help create original flower bed forms.
- Indoor plants are sold all year round. Various varieties of cyclamen, balsam, and everyone’s favorite violets are grown in the New Technologies greenhouses.
Coating
Covering is an important factor for arranging a greenhouse. Modern materials have replaced standard polyethylene film, making it possible to obtain high-quality goods all year round.
The basic requirements for the coating remain the same: low thermal conductivity to retain heat inside the structure and high transmission of natural light.
Glass
Glass has been used in this area before, but now float technology has made it possible to pour it directly into prepared forms.
Thanks to this approach, it is possible to ensure the following:
- the system transmits 93% of sunlight;
- it is convenient to install, guarantees high insulation and long-term use;
- the uniform thickness makes the greenhouse stable during snowfall or strong winds.
Installing a glass covering requires special tools and the ability to perform lifting and installation operations, so it is better to entrust this work to experienced specialists.
Double glazing
Double glazing technology is aimed at creating an additional air layer, which increases the thermal insulation properties. Compared to the use of cellular polycarbonate, this method has the following advantages:
- lower cost;
- long service life;
- increased light output.
Double glazing helps reduce the formation of condensation, which is the main factor in deteriorating the yield of marketable products.
Curtaining
Another Dutch technology involves the simultaneous use of one layer of glass and vertical curtains. A special mechanism automatically opens and closes the screens, which regulate the level of light supplied inside. In addition, curtains help preserve internal heat.
The screen material is selected depending on the specific crop being grown. The climate of the area where the greenhouse is installed is also taken into account.
The most modern at the moment is the Dutch Smart-Slip system, which is evenly stretched and fits tightly to the contour, which allows you to save the maximum amount of thermal energy.
Awnings
Nonwoven materials, which are used as an independent shelter or as an auxiliary layer inside greenhouses, are becoming increasingly popular.
Multifunctional materials are offered by many brands, the main ones being Lutrasil, Thermoselect, Spunbond and Agril. They can be of different thicknesses, which directly affects their quality. Non-woven materials help provide optimal moisture levels and retain heat.
The disadvantage of such awnings is that their independent use all year round is impossible, moreover, such materials are quite fragile and can tear. In order to extend the life of these expensive materials, it is necessary to cover them with plastic film during rainstorms and hail, and after they are over, open them.
Microclimate systems
Obtaining a high yield is only possible if all climate parameters inside the greenhouse are carefully monitored and it is possible to quickly adjust them due to changes in external conditions and the stage of plant development.
Heating
Heating is the most expensive factor when growing any plants or mushrooms, accounting for up to 80% of total costs. Therefore, experts primarily pay attention to the development of energy-saving heating systems that reduce energy costs.
The latest technologies offer the use of infrared ceramic heaters. Such heaters are equipped with automatic controllers that allow you to turn on and off long-wave radiation as needed, with the slightest difference of 0.2°C. The power of ceramic heaters is selected depending on the area of the heated zone and the thickness of the shelter materials.
The thermostat allows you to reduce human participation in constant temperature control. Such autonomous systems are very durable and can be used permanently or seasonally.
Soil heating
To obtain high and early harvests, the optimal temperature must be provided not only to the atmospheric air, but also to the soil in which seedlings or adult plants are cultivated. This parameter is especially important at the time of seed germination.
It is not always possible to effectively regulate the soil temperature using heating, since heat rises and even when it is hot inside the greenhouse, the soil may not be warmed up enough. For this reason, everyone who is seriously involved in growing crops in closed conditions uses soil heating.
To increase productivity, heating lines are equipped with thermostats that prevent overheating of the soil mixture. Control occurs automatically within the limits of the specified parameters. These parameters can be changed depending on the stage of plant growth and development, which significantly speeds up ripening and harvesting.
Advantages of using ground heating:
- feasibility and quick payback;
- low cost and low labor costs during installation;
- automatic operating mode;
- uniform heating around the entire perimeter;
- reduction of labor costs when maintaining the greenhouse.
Determining the power of the system, which will provide a sufficient level of heating, is carried out individually depending on the external temperatures and the time of use of the greenhouse complex.
Artificial lighting
Additional lighting is a very important parameter, especially in conditions of reduced daylight hours. Modern technology offers several innovations to make it cost-effective and highly efficient. Many crops stop producing buds and fruits when daylight hours are reduced to 9-7 hours, and after the reduction to 8 hours, all parts of the plant stop growing. This makes the use of additional lighting mandatory.
All new approaches eliminate overheating of the lighting surface, which makes it possible to place them in close proximity to leaves, flowers or fruits.
At the moment, the market offers several new developments.
Phytolamps
These devices produce a radiation spectrum of precisely the length that is best suited to plant physiology. Conventional lamps and spotlights that were used in the past wasted energy on light in the wrong spectrum, which wasted energy. Phytolamps transmit the necessary colors suitable for certain stages of plant growth, which has a positive effect on productivity.
The total power and number of phytolamps must be assessed very carefully. Their location is also taken into account, which will ensure uniform illumination without shadow areas.
Sodium lamps
They transmit the orange-red region of the spectrum, which makes photosynthesis as active as possible. Such lamps are reliable, safe and very effective. In addition, they provide high light output.
When purchasing them, first of all, you need to pay attention to moisture resistance, since operation in greenhouse conditions implies high humidity or dampness.
LED lightening
With the help of LEDs, it is possible to provide the necessary radiation spectrum that will meet all the needs of the crops grown at any stage of cultivation. In addition, LEDs consume the least amount of electricity. The highest photoactive indicators can be obtained from the luminous flux transmitted through LEDs, so at the moment this technology is considered the most profitable.
Ventilation
Ventilation systems are primarily active in the hot season, when the accumulated thermal energy can quickly destroy plants. Discharge of overheated air is possible thanks to the use of automatic thermal drives that allow you to control the internal temperature. This technology simplifies the maintenance of greenhouses, since the opening and closing of the ventilators occurs without human intervention.
The use of automatic ventilation is also advisable from the point of view that it is triggered only when excess pressure occurs. This protects the greenhouse from insects that can reduce the yield or eat the plants.
Watering
In recent years, sprinkling has given way to a new technology - drip irrigation. The main advantage of such a system is that the active soil layer is directly moistened. This makes it possible to save water, since evaporation from the upper layers and moistening of the inactive part of the soil are eliminated. Another advantage of drip irrigation is that it does not disrupt the supply of oxygen to the root system, reducing the incidence of root diseases.
Such systems can be automated or human-operated. Automation helps to supply irrigation water at a specific temperature, avoiding the stress of cold water.
In addition to drip irrigation, experts appreciated sprinkler irrigation. Using this technique, they not only moisten the soil, but also provide the necessary level of humidity, which is especially important when growing mushrooms.
The use of new technologies for greenhouses helps to increase the production of marketable products several times. In addition to efficiency, modern methods of providing a microclimate and the use of the latest materials make it possible to maintain greenhouses with minimal human intervention and with a significant reduction in labor costs.
