NFT Group manufactures a range of small systems for experimental purposes or for domestic growers who only want a small system to grow their own vegetables.

Many growers who live in a very warm or very cold climates purchase a small kitset hydroponic system before committing to the cost of a large commercial scale system.  By trialling a small system first, a grower is able to achieve the following:

• The grower is able to build their growing skills prior to the purchase of a larger system.
• The grower can identify any issues that may be associated with growing different plant varieties in their climate using a hydroponic system.  This will assist in plant selection and it will also allow the grower to determine whether further environmental control may be necessary for their climate (eg. cooling systems, shade screens)
• The actual productivity of each plant variety can be determined for a particular climate.  this knowledge will assist the grower with their negotiations with fresh produce buyers during the market development process.

• Fresh produce grown in the kitset hydroponic system can be presented to potential buyers for their opinion.  The buyer may be a chef who could offer the grower some valuable feedback on how the hydroponically grown product compares to imported produce.  This information will allow the grower to make an informed decision on what plant varieties and growing techniques need to be used to capture their target market.

NFT Group and Sutol AP can also tailor make a small system to suit any area.  Just let us know the dimensions of your outside growing area or greenhouse (length x width) or the number of plants you want to grow and we would be happy to design a kitset hydroponic system for you.
