The process of HYMEC cultivation

Fill the bed for cultivation with the culture medium (Water + nutrients) for up to a depth of 7cm. Then spread the HYMEC hydro membrane on it and fix it with clips to the sides of the bed so that the weight of the plants and matrix will not sink the HYMEC sheet.

Plant the crop of your choice (On the left shown are lettuce) with a suitable supporting matrix and cover the matrix with a suitable mulching film to prevent the matrix from getting dried.

Some Essential hints about HYMEC Cultivation:
1. There are various factors which govern the cultivation to be kept in mind before cultivating. Some of them are (i) the local temperature, (ii) humidity inside the green house, (iii) type of plant, (iv) life span of the crop (v) type of root etc.,
2. Before taking up a large scale cultivation, an adaptive trial to the local conditions is necessary, for which we will be able to help based on our policy.
