June 2024 Update

Added by ESW Guelph 3 months ago

In Fall of 2023 our Hydroponics team decided to upscale this project. After lots of negotiation the club was able to secure a greenhouse space on campus to build our own hydroponics system. We are no longer partnering with 10C however we have built a fully functioning system to grow Boston lettuce. The team is now hoping to partner with the University of Guelphs hospitality services. The project aims to provide fresh produce for hospitality services and the CSA Student FoodBank. Our current system has 10 troughs with the ability to grow 100 plants total. Nutrients get added into the water which cycles through the systems and reservoirs using a pump. Stay tuned for more updates on the new system we plan to build!
