Leafy vegetables

CULTIVATION INFO
We do visits on site, in the greenhouse on a regular basis. During the visit we discuss about the varieties in the greenhouse, inform you about new varieties, the crop conditions in the greenhouse, crop health, nutrient solution, climate control and water quality. Everything is discussed together and written down in a report. Optionally combined with online meetings in between.
During a biweekly meeting, the consultants of Lycopersicon exchange information about computer settings, fertilization, water quality and treatments, use of sensors, interpretation of data, etc. By exchanging information, we become stronger in our advice.

CULTIVATION TECHNIQUE
We work for each grower in accordance with the company's infrastructure. This can be very different for each crop :
Cultivation planning, nutrition solution and water treatment is different for a floating system (Deep Flow Technique, DFT) compared to a Mobile Gully/Gutter System (MGS, Nutrient Flow Technique, NFT).
Cultivation under HPS or under full LED of under a hybrid system, the climate settings are different. The choice of the right varieties depends of the lighting strategy.
Growing babyleaf, teenleaf of whole head in lettuce requires a different approach in terms of system construction (plant density), light intensity, air circulation, climate control, etc.
The cultivation of Pak choi or basil for example, is different from lettuce in terms of light intensity, spectrum, etc.
BUSINESS PLANNING
For the start-up of a new greenhouse equipped with a system for hydroponics, it's important to contact us in time! We have expertise in making a cultivation planning, but we also help in making the business plan with the corresponding investments. The investments are different depending on the type of leaf crop you grow : lighting (intensity and spectrum), screens, climate control, water treatment, etc.
