US (OH): Vitro Plus presents new cultivation system for ferns

Vitro Plus will exhibit at Cultivate '18 in Columbus Ohio from Sunday July 15th until Tuesday July 17th in booth #1651. They are attending this show to connect with existing customers who exhibit there as well or visit the show, but also to find new customers for the hardy ferns that Vitro Plus is now producing too.

New cultivation system for hardy ferns
In order to produce these hardy ferns Vitro Plus has developed a whole new cultivation system for ferns, where plants are cultivated into semi hardened off seedlings in a fully monitored efficient way.

This new system has been derived from Vitro Plus 30 year old tissue culture system, which needed new modified growing conditions. A separate greenhouse has been equipped into a multi-layered state of art cultivating area one can imagine.


By using special trollies fitted with led plates, which were developed in cooperation with REVEB, the cultivation capacity per m3 is 20-30 times higher than in traditional greenhouses.

The latest cooling and air conditioning systems will guarantee a verifiable climate. Next to the cultivation hall a fully automatic production area has been equipped to produce plants.

In addition a tissue culture laboratory has been housed as well where Vitro Research does a detailed study of new species, protocols and new innovative processes.

This expansion has prepared Vitro Plus for the future and its constant pursuit to lead the way in the fern world.
