Ventilation and air are just some of the major parameters that need to be taken into account and implemented in a growing space. In fact, with horticultural lamps, ventilation and air represent a determining factor in the success of indoor cultivation, in the success of an indoor horticultural experience.
Logically, ventilation and air come down to three main factors: carbon dioxide (CO2), temperature and hygrometry, i.e. the level of humidity available in the surrounding air. To achieve optimum climate control, ventilation and air are achieved through the installation of ventilation ducts and other duct accessories.
On Indoor Discountventilation and air are grouped together under the heading "horticultural ventilation", in which brands such as System Air, Advanced Starcan, ... stand out for their performance and reliability.
What are the basics to know and respect when growing indoors?
First and foremost, air renewal involves creating an active circulation of carbon dioxide (CO2). This gas is essential to plant photosynthesis, and thus to plant development. Plants assimilate CO2 during the day and release it at night. It is therefore essential to manage this air renewal within a growth chamber on a permanent basis. In addition, stable, temperate temperatures guarantee healthy, perennial, productive cultivation.
By maintaining temperatures of around 23 - 25°C, plants reach their full potential. They can then devote all their energy to flowering, fruit or vegetable production.
At temperatures above 27°C, plants begin to evaporate, i.e. they use part of their energy to combat the sweating they undergo.
This same negative phenomenon accelerates and becomes exponential above 30°C.
Similarly, a relatively high level of humidity, of the order of 40-70%, is required during the plant growth phase to maintain active stomata, which emit their permanent gaseous exchanges.
On the other hand, during the flowering and fruiting phases, plants will flourish healthily and fully if humidity levels are limited to between 35% and 50%. By controlling a relatively low level of humidity, the idea is to prevent and protect plants from the potential development of disease or mold, and thus optimize yields.
What materials should be installed to effectively control ventilation and air?
To regulate ventilation and air, it's essential to install carefully calibrated equipment in a growing space.
To this end, the installation of an air extractor, ventilation ducts and other duct accessories ensures the renewal of CO2, essential for the healthy development of all plants. Likewise, this air extraction system enables closer management of temperature and humidity.
Especially if complemented by air introducers, misters, humidifiers and climate managers equipped with thermostats and hygrostats, reacting in real time. So, on Indoor Discount climate control is governed by specialist brands such as Davin Controller, Winflex Ventilation, Superpro Controller, GSE Controller Harvest Master, Ecotechnics, ...
Finally, ventilation and air can also be effectively controlled by activated carbon filters, such as Bull Filter, Hy-Filter, Phresh Filter, Prima Klima, Can Filter (...), purifiers / ionizers and essential oil diffusers, such as ONA or The Neutralizer.
