ADVANTAGES OF THE ELEVATED HYDROPONIC GUTTER SYSTEMS

• It facilitates the cultivation.Worker's production increases due to the convenience in plants harvest and care procedures 
• Ideal for nutrient solution recycling 
• Excellent ventilation in the area of the plant's roots 
• Good lighting in the plant's base due to reflection of the ground white cover 
• Contact avoidance of the leaves-vegetables with the ground 
• Humidity reduction resulting to less possibility of infection by Botrytis 
• Facilitation of cultivation techniques increasing the efficiency of the labors with multiple financial benefits 
• Steel gutter is ideal for closed cultivation systems since the connection of the gutters with the irrigation tubes of the nutrient solution is easy 
• The irrigation tubes can be placed under or next to the gutters 
• Placement under the gutter in order to avoid the exposure of the irrigation tube in the UV radiation.   

ADVANTAGES OF CLOSED HYDROPONIC SYSTEMS       

• Big savings in water consumption due to recycling on the nutrient solution 
• Savings in the use of fertilizers since the nutrient solution is recycled after treatment       
• Minimum pollution of the environment since the nutrient solution is not being rejected in the environment.   

ADVANTAGES OF EL HG200 

• The runoff solution does not come in contact with substrate 
• The roots don't penetrate the gutter resulting to prevention of spreading root fungal diseases like Pythium sp., Phytopthora infestans etc
• Because of the shape and the construction material, it offers excellent support to the substrate, so the substrate leans across its width 
• The substrate doesn't slide on the gutter 
• It achieves uniform allocations of the solution in the substrate, giving best root system
• Avoidance of excessive solution in the substrate 
• High outflow 
• No gutter overflow 
• Easy control of the parietal basin canals, easy to clean 
• The gutters substantially are covered from the gutter's surface resulting to avoid exposure in the light. Small chance of creating algae
• EL HG200 is ideal for tomato, cucumber, pepper and other cultivations with all the substrates (rock-wool, pearlite, coco pit, and more)
