Expert 1/2 Acre

Expert 1/2 Acre

The Expert 1/2 Acre greenhouse is designed for growers looking to enter hydroponic fruit and vegetable production on a small to medium scale. With a 5-meter (16.5-foot) height and 2,112 m² (22,733 sq. ft.), this model provides the necessary infrastructure for efficient hydroponic cultivation of tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, lettuce, and strawberries.

For leafy greens, herbs, and ornamentals grown on tables, this model can already function as a large-scale production facility. Its hanging gutters, advanced climate control, and irrigation precision ensure a high-quality growing environment. With GrowPro’s Guided Growing program, new entrants can launch their greenhouse operations without needing vast agronomic knowledge.

Unlike the Basic Series, the Expert Series is designed for hydroponic cultivation, using hanging gutter systems or table-based growing methods. While hydroponic systems offer greater consistency and higher potential yields, actual production outcomes depend on climate conditions, crop varieties, and cultivation techniques.
