Eco Friendly NFT Hydroponic System Water Saving With Automated Management

Introduction of Hydroponics System

Hydroponics cultivation is a new crop cultivation technology developed in recent decades. Crops are not cultivated in soil, but in nutrient solutions or in a certain growing medium and dripped by nutrient solutions. As long as there are certain cultivation equipment and management measures, crops can grow normally and obtain high yield.

Advantages of NFT Hydroponic Planting System

The multi-layer vertical NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) hydroponic system is a highly efficient and modern agricultural planting method, particularly suitable for growing leafy vegetables. Below are its main advantages:

1. Space-Saving: The multi-layer vertical design maximizes vertical space utilization, significantly reducing land usage, making it ideal for urban farming or areas with limited space.

2. High Yield: The high planting density per unit area significantly increases crop production, meeting the demands of large-scale farming.

3. Short Growth Cycle: Hydroponic technology provides optimal nutrient and water supply, accelerating crop growth and shortening the planting cycle.

4. Automated Management: Equipped with an automatic fertilizer control system, it precisely adjusts nutrient solution concentration, reducing manual intervention and improving planting efficiency.

5. Eco-Friendly and Water-Efficient: Recycles water resources, saving significant amounts of water compared to traditional soil farming and reducing waste.

6. Soil-Free Cultivation: Avoids soil-borne pests and diseases, reducing pesticide use and producing healthier, safer vegetables.

7. Food-Grade Materials: Uses food-grade PVC planting channels, ensuring a safe and non-toxic growing environment.

8. Strong Adaptability: Can be used indoors or in greenhouses,不受气候和季节限制,实现全年种植.

9. Easy Maintenance: Modular design makes installation and operation simple, facilitating cleaning and maintenance.

10. High Economic Efficiency: A high-efficiency, low-cost planting model suitable for commercial production with a high return on investment.

In summary, the multi-layer vertical NFT hydroponic system is an efficient, eco-friendly, and sustainable modern agricultural solution, particularly suited for intensive production of leafy vegetables.

Components

The NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) hydroponic system consists of several key components that work together to achieve efficient and automated crop cultivation. Below are its main components:

1. Planting Channels:
Made from food-grade PVC or other corrosion-resistant materials, these channels hold the nutrient solution and plant roots. The multi-layer design maximizes vertical space utilization.

2. Nutrient Solution Circulation System:
Includes a water pump, pipes, and a reservoir to deliver and recycle the nutrient solution, ensuring continuous nutrient absorption by the plant roots.

3. Automatic Fertilizer Control System:
Uses sensors and controllers to monitor and adjust the concentration, pH, and EC levels of the nutrient solution, ensuring optimal growing conditions.

4. Support Frame Structure:
Constructed from sturdy metal or plastic materials, it supports the multi-layer planting channels, ensuring system stability and load-bearing capacity.

5. Lighting System (Optional):
Utilizes LED grow lights in indoor or low-light environments to provide sufficient light for photosynthesis.

6. Ventilation System (Optional):
Uses fans or ventilation devices in enclosed environments to regulate air circulation, prevent excessive humidity, and reduce the risk of disease.

7. Drainage System:
Designed with proper drainage channels to prevent nutrient solution stagnation and ensure healthy root systems.

8. Planting Baskets or Sponge Cubes:
Used to secure seedlings, allowing their roots to access the flowing nutrient solution.

9. Monitoring System (Optional):
Equipped with sensors for temperature, humidity, and light levels, enabling real-time environmental monitoring and remote management via smart devices.

10.Water chiller

It's used to reduce the water temperature.

11.UV Sterilizer(Optional)

It can kill harmful microorganisms such as germs and algae in the nutrient solution, extend the lifespan of the nutrient solution, create a healthy environment for the roots, and facilitate high - quality plant growth.

These components together form an efficient, automated, and sustainable NFT hydroponic system, ideal for intensive production of leafy vegetables.

Technical Specifications

FAQ:

Q: Are you a factory or a trading company?
A: We are a manufacturer with a factory covering an area of 2,000 square meters and various production equipments.

Q: What is the material of the main structure of your greenhouse? How long can it be guaranteed to be used?
A: The main frame of our greenhouse is generally made of hot-dip galvanized steel. This material has super corrosion resistance. Under normal circumstances, with proper daily maintenance, its service life can reach 15 - 20 years. It can resist common natural disasters such as wind, rain, and snow pressure, providing a stable growing environment for the crops in the greenhouse.

Q: Before placing a large order, we'd like to buy a sample greenhouse to try it out first. Is that possible?
A: Yes. We can send you a small-scale greenhouse by LCL (Less than Container Load) sea shipping.

Q: I have a piece of land and I want to grow some vegetables or raise some fish, but I don't know what kind of greenhouse and what size I need. Can you help me with the design?
A: Of course. You can tell us the size of your land, your expected annual output of vegetables or fish, as well as the local climate information. Based on these data, we can design the style, size and price of the greenhouse for you. We'll also let you know approximately how many workers are needed and how long it will take to complete the installation, and how much yield you can expect in a year.

Q: Do you provide planting technical guidance after I purchase the greenhouse?
A: We have a professional planting technology team. After you purchase the greenhouse, according to the crop varieties you plant, we will customize a detailed planting plan for you, covering all aspects such as sowing time, planting density, fertilization and watering frequency, and key points of pest and disease prevention and control. During the planting process, you can contact our technicians via phone, video, etc. at any time, and they will answer your questions promptly.

Q: How long will it take to receive the greenhouse after placing an order?
A: Generally, for standard-specification greenhouses, production, transportation, installation and commissioning can be completed within 20 - 30 days after you place the order and the deposit arrives. However, if you customize special specifications or configurations, or the quantity you purchase is relatively large, it may take about 40 - 60 days. We will give you an accurate time estimate when signing the contract.

Q: What kind of assistance can you provide during the greenhouse installation?
A: We will provide several ways to help you with the installation: First, we'll provide written installation instructions; second, we'll offer online installation guidance; third, we'll dispatch engineers to your construction site for on-site installation guidance; fourth, if there is our local agent, our agent can also help you with the installation service.

Q: What are the quick solutions when encountering pest and disease problems?
A: First, our technical team will help you accurately identify the types of pests and diseases, which is the key to taking the right countermeasures. Then, according to different pests and diseases, we will provide corresponding biological control, physical control or chemical control solutions. For example, for common pests like aphids, we recommend using physical control methods such as yellow sticky traps combined with biological control methods like releasing ladybugs, so as to minimize the use of chemical pesticides, which can protect the environment while effectively controlling pests and diseases.

Q: What preparations should I make before installation?
A: First, obtain the building permit from the government if required. Second, prepare the tools according to the tool list we send you. Third, get the workers ready. Fourth, prepare the power supply if needed. Fifth, prepare a place to store the goods upon arrival to keep them from getting wet in the rain.

Q: What does your greenhouse after-sales service include?
A: We provide a one-year free warranty service. During the warranty period, for any parts of the greenhouse with non-artificial damage or quality problems caused by natural disasters, we will replace or repair them for free. After one year, we still offer long-term paid maintenance services.
