Sungrown Efficiency – Optimizing the Energy Water Nexus
Resource consumption of outdoor cultivation environments is driven by water usage, which has its own impact on energy usage. Additionally, starting plants in protected environments has associated energy impacts. Learn best practices for lighting and environmental controls for hardy starts before bringing plants to the field. Understand how to maximize productivity while minimizing water and energy consumption.
Greenhouse Optimization – Aligning Your Systems With Your Surroundings
Greenhouse controls can be more complicated because they have to contend with more extreme variations in climatic conditions and solar radiation that are harder to predict. Learn best practices for lighting and environmental controls in greenhouses. Daily and seasonal variation of the Sun can quickly influence facility heat gain, plant photosynthetic rate, and transpiration rate at varying rates across the canopy in greenhouses. Understand how to compete and comply with upcoming code changes. Save energy by automating vents and light deprivation systems, supplemental lighting systems, and cooling systems in greenhouses.
Automation & Controls Best Practices For All Cultivation Environments
Learn how environmental control systems managing lighting, HVAC, and water processes are crucial for growers to achieve maximum yields in all cannabis production environments. Understand how automation of resource-consuming systems can drive competitive performance by improving efficiency and productivity to increase profits.
