Grow better blueberries in a greenhouse
Blueberries are in big demand thanks to their superfood status, but this nutrient-rich fruit has specific requirements and can be a challenge to grow. Fortunately, cultivating blueberries in a greenhouse creates optimal growing conditions, resulting in increased yields and better quality berries. Here is how to create the right conditions for blueberries:
Protection from harsh conditions
Berries are sensitive to temperature extremes, diseases and pests, and are vulnerable in open fields. By growing them in a greenhouse, you protect your plants from harsh conditions and create the right environment for them to thrive.
Precise irrigation and fertigation
With blueberries, it’s all about striking the right balance – they have a fine, shallow root system and need precise amounts of food and water to flourish. By incorporating precision irrigation and fertigation systems into your greenhouse, you can consistently deliver the water and nutrition your berry plants need, when they need it.
Significant water savings
Greenhouse farming doesn’t just benefit your berries, it also benefits the environment and your bottom line. With precision irrigation, you can grow more with less water. And thanks to the climate-controlled conditions in a greenhouse, you’ll lose less of this precious resource to evaporation, too.
