Introduction
A greenhouse is a controllable, dynamic system managed for intensive production of high quality, fresh market produce. Greenhouses allows for crop production under diverse conditions. However, greenhouse growers have to manage a number of variables to get maximum sustainable production from their crops, including:
- air and root zone temperature
- fertilizer feed
- growing media
- plant maintenance
This section provides information on optimizing these variables, to get maximum performance from the crop over the production season.
