Greenhouse Consultation & Purchasing Service
One big problem in the greenhouse industry is that over 99% of all consulting firms are just consultant sand not experienced greenhouse farmers. When buying a greenhouse directly from the manufacturer, the customer only speaks to salespeople who are not involved in active farming.

A greenhouse proposal always includes the structure which is built by the manufacturer, however the fans, the atomizers/foggers, the CO2 regulators, the heaters, the wet walls, etc. are usually built by other manufacturers.
