Turns out, there’s a lot more going on behind the greens…
Here are 4 things we learned during our visit at Greener Roots Farms →
Hydroponic systems can use either a soil-based or soilless growing method. At Greener Roots, our Farm Greens are grown without traditional soil, with their roots getting nutrients directly through water and LED lighting.
Believe it or not, the dark is an important part of the growing process. Plants use this time to process the nutrients they’ve taken in and continue growing.
Farmers can read the plant’s natural cues to know when it’s ready. The way the leaves open and separate from the core can help signal that it’s time to harvest🌿
Controlled growing conditions mean crops don’t have to wait for the seasons. They can be grown and turned over more frequently throughout the year—which means more Farm Greens making their way to your Plate!
