Moreover, the climatic conditions inside homes and the isolation from external environment keep away weeds, pathogens and insects.
Ventilation system: A constant air flow enters through specific openings placed on the back wall. Air circulation also creates the perfect balance of inner temperature.
Temperature: Minifarm is equipped with double walls injected with insulating stuff for an excellent insulation from external climate. An air conditioner or a heater can be provided for the best regulation on internal temperature in case of exterme conditions.
Light: Your Minifarm is provided with two types of lamps: Type A is perfect for leafly green products. Type B has been selected for fruit vegetables. The automation system allows you to manage the lighting schedule based on the desidered photoperiod and the activation cycles of water pumps.
