Next time you tuck into some Sainsburys bought Thai or Jalapeño chillies, you could very well be munching on some AutoPot grown produce!
As you may remember from our previous newsletters, we’ve been working with various commercial nurseries this year; running side by side trials with AutoPot alongside conventional irrigation techniques. Westshore Nurseries in Banks, near Southport have been growing over 200 chilli plants in two large easy2grow systems with peat compost, alongside their plants grown in drip-irrigated rock wool slabs.
The growth and production of the crop appears to be neck and neck, as is the quality of the chillies harvested. The real ‘proof in the pudding’ results will be the savings achieved in the consumption of fertiliser and water, in previous trials commercial growers have recorded savings of over 45% compared to drip-irrigation.
