Every one of us will be having one hobby or the other. One among such a hobby is gardening. Advice is the freely available thing. When asking what to do in gardening each and everyone have their own thoughts. But when coming to gardening the real difficulty is faced in watering the plants. Everyone in the cold countries possesses their own greenhouse in their backyard. They won’t find time in watering the plants in them. Here are some simple methods to overcome the difficulty.

Scheduled Watering:

The plants in greenhouse require a timely watering for them to grow faster and better than the plants, which grow in a normal environment. So a proper schedule of watering them in timely basis should be followed to ensure them of good growth. The timely watering is alone not the sole criteria for the better growth in the greenhouse. The amount of watering is also need to be in the optimum level. This changes from plant to plant.

Straw-bale process research:

To provide the proper watering for the plants in the greenhouse research are on going in the field of usage of straw bales as a replacement for the conventional sand. The straw bale, which is recommended for this process, is the straw bale of the wheat plant. The straw bales are chosen because of their capability to retain air and moisture if they are in the wet condition. This is accompanied by their capability of slow decomposition rate and there by giving out the sufficient amount nutrients as and when required by them.

Automatic Watering System:

The automatic watering system is available in the market to provide water to the plants in a greenhouse. The automatic watering system is capable of providing the correct amount of water to the plant and in the correct time as and when required. The automatic watering system works in the principle of fire exhaust system in the buildings. This is a pneumatic operated valve, which carries water in them along with the control of microprocessors for the accurate control. They are also capable of maintaining the correct moisture level in the air too. It is very simple in design and very easy to install too. The cost of the watering system is in the high end when comparing it to install in a low level greenhouse. The marketers are ready to provide the customers with quality service. The installation of this watering system can define the quality.

The watering in any greenhouse is a tedious process along with the fact it consumes lot of time. So to avoid it methods are to be taken. The proper scheduling has to be done to water the plants. Then use of the straw bales can reduce the worry. There is automatic watering system available in the shop to make it easy for the maintainer.

Improve Growing at Greenhouse

Agriculture is a tedious process, where cultivation requires a lot of tactics and experience involved in it. That too when it comes to growing plants in a closed environment such as in the greenhouse it is indeed a great challenge. It is usually not the quantity is of main consideration in these kinds of cultivations. The main reason of interest will be in improve the rate of growth and attain quicker plants and plants that of their best quality.

Growth improve:

Improvement is a process, which is all ways felt in all levels. Even the most high-level thinkers have the question what to do to make it better. Here is some category of advice to improve growing at greenhouse.

Straw-bale process:

This is a new process in which a lot of research is going on in the current scenario. This is to use straw bales instead of the conventional sand. The reason is simple, the straw bales are in every way far more better than sand. When they are in wet condition they provide with lot of air and moisture. In addition to it they release nutrients at a low rate and give out heat due to decomposition, which is a best-suited condition for warm temperature required plants. The best-suited straw for this process is the wheat straw since it has a low decomposition rate. This makes it suited for the cultivation in the greenhouse environment.

Climate controllers:

When ever the best environmental conditions are provided to the plant the growth of the plant is three fold than the plants, which are grown in ordinary conditions. For this purpose we use the climate conditioner. This is capable of adjusting the atmospheric temperature to the required plant conditions. The climate conditioner is nothing but a control device of the whole greenhouse. This is capable of providing the required climate to the plants. As a additional feature to this it is also capable of providing controlled rate of water to the plants and also the moisture in air.

Watering:

This is a major requirement for the plants irrespective of the type of plant that is grown. So the plants has to be provided with the best timely water provided to it. It should strict to a proper schedule.

Greenhouse cultivation is very hard. To make the improve in growth use the straw bale process which is good moisture and air provider along with a low rate of nutrient provider. Then next is the climate controller providing optimum conditions for the plant. Last is the watering that has to be maintained.

Winter Organic Vegetable Growing and Production Improvement

September 21, 2009 at 12:08 pm · Filed under Useful Methods, Vegetative Production ·Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

The production of vegetables is largely altered when considering in the summer and winter. The production rate is much higher than what we get in the winter. This is of the usual scenario till last year. But there is appreciable growth in the current production year.

Reason for low production :

During winter seasons the climate in the area nearly drops to 0 degrees. This temperature is not suited for the vegetables that are grown in the area. The climate will retard the growth of the plant causing it give a low production rate. The vegetables water content gets frozen due to the cold temperature and this will cause the dying of plants and in some cases change in the chemical composition too. This is the main reason felt with the plants in the cold region by the vegetable farmers.

Steps to improve it:

The conventional process taken to overcome this difficulty faced by the farmers is by making use of the greenhouse climate to them. The greenhouse is a place where the whole room covered with the glasses so it will trap the sunlight in the room and cause a high temperature in the room than the surrounding to make the plants to grow fine as they grow in the summer. The plants also are easy to maintain in a closed atmosphere. The pest control is of a easy task over these areas. Then about considering the watering and other phenomenon more controlled environment can be provided to the plants grown in these areas. The growing rate can be improved in these plants by the usage of straw bales in the process. It is the wheat straw that are used often in their process.

Production Maintenance:

The production rate improvement can most significantly maintained by the use of more conventional implementation of the production laws. The first thing is removal of wastages, which can be achieved in the vegetables by eliminating the occurrence of defects in the vegetables. So the pest control and proper fertilizers has to be provided to the plants. In addition to it the transport defects has to mean and the necessary steps has to be taken to avoid it. The vegetable automation can be implemented to improve the production rate by reducing its ideal time. The periodic growth has to be improved by the use of inducers and catalyst to the on going process in the plants.

The production rate of vegetables in winter is very less. Shifting from the conventional growing process and using the greenhouse growing can improvise this. Then by using the production laws the rate of failure occurrence can be minimized. The other thing that has to be done is use the current technologies available.
