Maintain the perfect environment for your commercial grow operation with Hydrofarm's extensive range of atmospheric control products. We supply everything you need to manage temperature, humidity, CO2 levels, and air quality, ensuring your crops thrive from seed to harvest.
In controlled environment agriculture (CEA), consistency is key. Fluctuations in temperature or humidity can stress plants, leading to reduced yields or compromised quality. Hydrofarm provides commercial-grade solutions designed to stabilize these variables, giving you total control over your grow room or greenhouse climate.
Our catalog features industry-leading brands like Active Air, Autopilot, Quest, and Phat, offering robust equipment built to withstand the demands of large-scale cultivation. Whether you are outfitting a new facility or upgrading your current setup, our atmospheric control products help you optimize conditions for maximum plant performance.
Atmospheric control allows growers to manipulate the environment to suit the specific needs of the plant genetics they are growing. By precisely managing temperature, humidity, and CO2, you can maximize metabolic rates, improve nutrient uptake, and ultimately increase yield and potency. It also helps prevent common issues like powdery mildew and botrytis by keeping humidity in check.
Sizing a dehumidifier depends on several factors, including the room size, the number of plants, the amount of water you give your plants daily, and whether the room is sealed or vented. A general rule of thumb for sealed rooms is to have enough dehumidification capacity to remove approximately the amount of water added to the room each day. Our commercial sales team can assist with precise calculations for your facility.
Digital controllers, like the Autopilot series, automate the management of your grow room devices. They can trigger fans, CO2 generators, and dehumidifiers based on real-time sensor data. This automation ensures consistency, reduces labor costs, and provides peace of mind that your environment is always within the target range, even when you aren't on-site.
Yes, but it requires coordination. If you continuously exhaust air while enriching with CO2, you are effectively wasting gas. An environmental controller is essential here; it can shut off exhaust fans while CO2 is being dosed and only turn them back on to vent excess heat or humidity, maximizing the efficiency of your CO2 usage.
