Light Deprivation Greenhouse

What is a Light Deprivation Greenhouse?

A light deprivation greenhouse, also known as a blackout greenhouse, is a specialized structure designed to control the amount of light exposure received by plants.

Features:

Light Control: Light deprivation greenhouses utilize blackout curtains or coverings to block out sunlight, allowing growers to regulate photoperiods and manipulate flowering cycles for different crops.

Temperature Regulation: In addition to controlling light exposure, these greenhouses often feature ventilation and climate control systems to maintain optimal temperature and humidity levels for plant growth.

Applications:

Vegetable Farming: Growers utilize light deprivation techniques to extend growing seasons, enhance crop quality, and maximize yield for various vegetable crops, such as tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers.

Flower Production: Flower growers employ light deprivation greenhouses to control blooming schedules, prolong vase life, and produce consistent, high-quality blooms for the floral market.
