The important problem of low humidity in greenhouses that negatively affects the production of plants, especially in periods of drought, is solved with the modern installation of high pressure misting systems of ANDRIANOS in the Nurseries Garden Fligos Konstantinos in Achaia.
The new specialized misting system that was installed maintains the desired climate inside the greenhouses and achieves the maintenance of the desired humidity, regardless of the external climatic conditions, while at the same time effectively helping to control the temperature.
The problem: Significant losses due to lack of moisture in the greenhouses of the Fligos nursery
During periods of drought and when the humidity drops below 40% the problems during growth are great. The plants suffer, grow slowly and become dehydrated, resulting in even the cessation of production, until the humidity returns to reasonable levels. The above is a common problem in greenhouses, which is now effectively addressed by the owners of Fligos Nurseries Garden in Achaia.
Fligos Konstantinos Nurseries Garden is a family business and the facilities are located in Kato Alissos of the Prefecture of Achaia. The company was founded in 1950, by Georgios Fligos, with the main object of producing sour and olive saplings. Since 1985, when Konstantinos Fligos took over, the company has been developing and has managed to double the acres of cultivation, to be equipped with modern greenhouses and to expand its cultivation with more varieties such as orange and mandarin.
With over 65 years of experience and guided by the quality of the plants and the customer service, it provides products in the field of green to professional producers but also to amateurs, always with the main goal of reliability and honesty, towards the partners, producing plants of high standards, which can guarantee the best possible production result.
In the above context of continuous development and upgrade of their greenhouses, they contacted the experts of ANDRIANOS to solve the important problem of low humidity that affected their production.
The solution: The modern High Pressure Mist System of ANDRIANOS with advanced technology of special hygrometers-commanders.
The ANDRIANOS mist specialists initially studied the problem in the nursery garden, analyzing all the required parameters, such as the type and condition of the cultivated plants, the insulation & the natural constraints of the greenhouse space, up to the characteristics of the supplied water for the nursery garden watering.
Then they prepared a detailed study of dimensioning of the required mechanical equipment of high pressure mist system and immediately proceeded to the installation of the specialized high pressure mist system & the advanced technology of special hygrometers-commanders.
The operation of the stable humidity system and the significant benefits in greenhouses
Specialized misting systems are the most suitable to maintain the desired climate inside the greenhouses regardless of their size. They are used to achieve the desired humidity regardless of the external climatic conditions and help effectively control the temperature, with the advanced technology of hygrometers-commanders.
During the summer months, with the rapid evaporation of the suspended droplets caused by the misting systems, they will cool the greenhouse and maintain the proper humidity so that the crops do not dehydrate due to the heat.
During the cold winter months with strong northerly winds, automatic mist systems will maintain adequate humidity and prevent dehydration due to heating systems.The high pressure greenhouse mist is also suitable for more sensitive crops such as tropical fruits, etc. where it is not possible to use traditional water spraying methods.
With the latest technology specialized automatic regulation system of constant humidity of ANDRIANOS, in Fligos nurseries now regulate the desired humidity levels in the greenhouse according to the requirements of each plant, in order to limit their dehydration and the result is the maximum possible, increasing the already high reliability towards his customers.The system is set to start automatically when the humidity in the room drops to the minimum set according to the minimum needs of the plant and closes automatically when it reaches its maximum needs, thus maintaining the desired average humidity needed to grow properly and do not become dehydrated, thus avoiding unwanted losses.
The desired level of humidity can be achieved in steps, by making the appropriate settings in the control panel of the machine and this is done with the work / pause automation function, which has the system, thus contributing to the long-term and smooth operation of machinery and equipment.
Accurate Measurement of Humidity & Temperature Values before (35% Hum / 47.1oC) and after (87% Hum / 34.4oC) the installation of the system.
With this new installation, the Fligos nurseries are upgraded in quality even more, continuing the work of preserving their tradition and history, as well as the production of high quality plants.
