P
ure Hydroponics is a New Zealand based hydroponics company that specialises in re-circulating NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) systems. The NFT system is an excellent hydroponic system for growing leaf crops such as lettuces and culinary herbs. A thin film of nutrient solution flows along the base of a flat bottom PVC gully. The roots of the plant sit in this thin film of nutrient solution and gain complete nutrition from the passing flow. The solution then gravity feeds back to a below ground tank where it is re-oxygenated and re-dosed with fresh nutrients and pumped back to the crop again. It is a very efficient system in terms of low water and nutrient usage and optimisation of space. The quality of the crops grown in an NFT system are exceptional. A suitable environment can be provided for the crop by way of a greenhouse with roof and sidewall
ventilation, shade screens and misting systems for cooling. Pure Hydroponic sis offering a Design and Shopping List Service to serious African growers who are interested in taking up commercial hydroponics. The Design and Shopping List Service allows the grower to source most of the system equipment themselves using local suppliers. Installation drawings are then provided to allow the grower to install the systems themselves with our online guidance. Any specialised equipment which a grower may not be able to source locally can be supplied by Pure Hydroponics as a low volume courier or sea freight shipment. Once the system is operational Pure Hydroponcis can provide online consultancy and support services. Please contact us for a questionnaire so we can learn more about your requirements.
