Pflanzentheke GmbH

Pflanzentheke GmbH is a company involved in the construction of hydroponic systems for crops such as vegetables and fruit. Our vision is the permanent and secure supply of locally produced food. For the protection of the environment. For all people.
We offer our customers in agricultural vegetable growing, farm shops, company canteens and educational institutions complete systems with which they can grow their own vegetables locally, in a water-saving, fertiliser-efficient and climate-friendly way. For this purpose, we provide the appropriate vertical racks, our own fertiliser and automatic measurement and control technology (MCT).
This measurement and control technology measures the current nutrient content and the pH value and corrects these two parameters independently. In addition, environmental parameters are recorded and stored by the fertiliser computer.
The aim of this application (Space Connection) is to further develop the MCT. The fertiliser concentration is to be automatically adjusted to the transpiration of the plant by using weather forecast and other data. This technique of environment-specific fertilisation is not used in conventional fertilisation computers and offers possibilities for optimising yields and producing healthier food.
