Year-round production

摘要

Year-round, high-wire production of mini-cucumbers with supplemental lighting is being fine-tuned at the Greenhouse and Processing Crops Research Centre. Dr. Xiuming Hao previously worked with high-wire, long English cucumber production with supplemental lighting. The results were most impressive, with yields of between 280 and 300 cucumbers per square metre per year - about double that of traditional growing systems.
