  • Locally grown in Medicine Hat Alberta, ready for store shelves on a commercial level in Calgary. Well done...

    I've seen these local greenhouses myself and the sun they harvest is truly genius. Smart local business for sure...if only more people would harness these techniques. We have sun in Medicine Hat - maybe the most in Canada!

  • The idiot NewGreeks have so much water and super-quality soil and all they do is to create poverty! Politicians against farmers & farmers against police, blocking national roads, Greek supermarkets import everything from abroad, even lemons from Argentina and onions from India, while they destroy their own production as protest rioting. Also uneducated careless ignorant farmers and misuse fertilizers and pesticides and poison their production as well as soil and water!

  • local? like those cucumbers won't travel for thousands of miles before they end up on someone's plate.

  • @nevyn1 "Local" is a relatively vague word. The option is bringing cucumbers in from Mexico and the other central American countries during the off season. It's better to truck them for a couple hundred miles to service their region instead of trucking them a couple thousand miles to serve the same market.

  • @xpsyclonex2002 The only thing that bothers me is the food trade act hurt millions of corn farmers in mexico and now thousands and thousands migrate here illegaly to try to make a better life for thayer familys and sence we produce it here in the US cheaper thay buy ower corn insted of thayer nabers corn so we poot the hurtin on them so thay cum here to make it but most cant legaly so we spend millions keeping them out. We need to stop selling ower corn there so some of them will make a liveing-

  • @xpsyclonex2002 -at home. I dont have any thing against mexicans i like them im just not happy with us ruening thayer way of life and then we spend millions of ower tax dollers keeping them out of the US it dont realy make sence. I hate gmo for difrent resons i just got to say that. Any ways the food trade act helped the avicoto farmers in mexico but it poot millions of corn farmers out of buisnes im not sertin it was millions but thats just what i under stood.

  • I wanna setup a greenhouse of this magnitude to grow potatoes, im from south asia, anyone got any tips on any companies who do these kind of commercial greenhouses?

  • RE: Greenhouses sizes

    Low Profile - 10K to 100K (iceberg lettuce, green onions, broccoli.....($10-18 /s.f.

    High Profile - 40K to 400K (tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers.......$ 16-23 / s.f.

    However, the key is to generate own electric power at less than 1 cent / kWh

    Ours: On-Site Power Plant-Super Hybrid system at development cost of $8K/KW

    And the cost to produce (O&M) = less than 20% of wholesale cost
