Walters Gardens are coming close to completing their Acclimation Range expansion. The Acclimation Greenhouse will add approximately 1½ acres of greenhouse production space and be used to propagate recently stuck URCs and tissue culture.
The new range will have a number of new features, including a roof of diffused glass, separate curtains for shade and heat retention, as well as heated floors and a dry fog system for increased humidity control. Together these features help WG promote faster rooting and finishing in their plugs. They are also seeing improved yields as they are now able to better monitor and control the growing environment of plants at a younger age.
