What you need to set up
There are some basic necessities needed before a system can be installed and to ensure that you produce the volume of fresh sprouting fodder that you need every day.
• A clear area of land
FT1200 will require a minimum of 14m wide x 16m long to ensure the space around the building and room for the air conditioning unit

• Water supply
A clean readily available water supply. Although we are happy to discuss your needs for reverse osmosis if necessary.
• Power supply
A reliable single or 3 phase power supply, to drive the climate control, pumps and mixing systems.
• High quality seed
We only use certificated, cleaned, guaranteed 97% germinating malt or seed grade hydroponic sprouting barley. This is a key factor in achieving the conversion rates from 1-8kg that are typically reported from our installations.
• Hydromix nutrient
We only recommend our specifically developed nutrient to ensure the quality and volume of sprouting fodder from our systems.
