1. Why Choosing the Right Irrigation System Matters?
An efficient irrigation system ensures:
- Proper water distribution → Avoids overwatering or underwatering.
- Water conservation → Saves resources while promoting plant growth.
- Automation → Reduces labor and improves efficiency.
2. Greenhouse Irrigation Systems Overview
| Irrigation Type | Water Efficiency | Cost | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Drip Irrigation | Very High | Medium | Fruits, vegetables, flowers |
| Sprinkler System | Medium | Low | Leafy greens, general crops |
| Ebb and Flow System | High | High | Potted plants, hydroponics |
| Fogging/Misting System | High | Medium | Tropical plants, humidity-sensitive crops |
3. Which Irrigation System is Best for You?
- Small Greenhouses → Drip irrigation is cost-effective & water-efficient.
- Hydroponic Greenhouses → Ebb & flow system works best.
- Humid Climate Greenhouses → Misting system improves humidity control.
