Research by Delphy * has shown that effective dehumidification in combination with good tune movement can mostly foreclose botrytis in the cannabis crop . This is of course music to the ear of Eef Zwinkels of Royal Brinkman , who is able to realise exactly this with " his " DryGair at the cultivator . " I have done the math : we have sell 355 units in the last few geezerhood . It gives the grower a steering wheel , undertake an even and active climate , and reach meaning zip saving . "

Cornee van Kester and Eef Zwinkels . With the chickenhearted hose , the collected water is reused for polish .

Cornee van Kester , potted plant life grower from Honselersdijk , has also notice this . To be clear , he does not grow cannabis ( nor does he designate to ) , but he is one of the grower who is enjoy the benefits of the DryGair system . First , two were placed in one of the department , ' to try out out ' , then two more for a 2d department , then two more for the third , also about 1 hectare in sizing . A 7th whole will then be instal in the new building , which is presently under construction . " It ’s a good reenforcement system , we have hard plant life and take to use fewer resources , " tell Cornee . " We buy a bit of surety with it , as it were . "

live cropBotrytis is not just a job in cannabis , it occurs everywhere . The optimum temperature and RH ( and the balance between the two ) are dissimilar in every crop . " But the principle is the same everywhere , " says Eef . " If the RH lead down , this give the flora room to disappear . An evaporate industrial plant is an dynamic plant , a plant in which building material and nutrients are ravish . If a flora is not active , it will suffer from deficiencies and ailments . In brusque , DryGair creates a more active , more springy crop , which in turn lose weight the need to apply crop protection products . "

DryGair DGXOne of the late developments within DryGair , a intersection by the Israeli manufacturer of the same name for whom Royal Brinkman manages sales in the Netherlands , is the improver of DryGair DGX , a kind of ' mini - DryGair ' . " This was actually developed specially for cannabis . The areas there are often small-scale , but the need for dehumidification is high-pitched here . Moreover , no crop aegis products can be used in this crop . The unit also find their direction into little departments of specialist raising and germ companies . "

The success of the DryGair is , Eef bed , partly due to the lack of a successful caricature . " There simply is n’t one . There are industrial building dryers and there is a Chinese written matter on the market , but the DryGair engage by far the most liter per kw / h out of the aura - namely 4 - and also broadcast much more aura - 22,400 m3 / h. The latter is crucial so as to achieve an even and active climate . "

case from a Gebera greenhouse : with Drygair , it is possible to redeem up to 50 % on gas ( depending on the fate , of trend ) . Because windows and screen are closed , there is hardly any passing of sensible and latent estrus , and the latter is also " glean " ( the whole blows warmed melodic phrase into the nursery - in some crop , incidentally , a prosperous accession to the special heat emitted by LED ) .

" In addition , DryGair scores the highest for Green Label Greenhouse " , concludes Eef . " There are arrangement that dehumidify with salt , but these utilize comparatively much more energy . And there are other respiration systems , but these bring external air into the greenhouse , which is often humid and/or dusty . With DryGair , the windows and screens can stay unopen , there is no cold or draft , and you do n’t have to count on the RH alfresco . Finally , rising energy prices and the desire for sustainability make growers receptive to such system . In prospect of COVID and last year ’s sales , there is often extra room to invest . The EC subsidy on the DryGair units also helps of form . This schema is exposed until the end of November and amounts to 25 % over the entire installation . "
