Commonly known as a “Hoop House,” a High Tunnel System is an increasingly popular practice for farmers searching for conservative growing systems. With High Tunnels, harsh temperatures are not an obstacle.
Benefits of High Tunnels include:
• Extension of the growing season
• Improved plant and soil quality
• Reduction in pesticide and nutrient transportation
• Improved air quality
• Reduction in energy usage by providing growers with a local source of fresh produce
High Tunnels protect plants from severe weather and allow farmers to extend their growing season to yearround. They also protect plants from direct rainfall, providing growers with the ability to have precise control over when delivering water and nutrients to plants by utilizing tools, such as a drip irrigation kit.

HYBRID
HYBRID VS. TOTALLY ENCLOSED
Our Hybrid Greenhouses can utilize dehumidifiers, chillers, coolers, or traditional HVAC systems, allowing the grower to use the greenhouse as a traditional greenhouse most months of the year, utilizing outside air. Then, during those months when the air is too hot, or more likely, too humid, the outside vents close and instead of pulling outside air into the greenhouse, chillers or air conditioners scrub the air free of humidity, mold, pollen, spores, and of course, lower the temperature. Subsequently, this cold air is then pumped into the cooling chamber, where it is pulled into the greenhouse and distributed through the ducts under the crop’s root structure and is forced through the canopy. During this process, the greenhouse remains closed, and the air is returned back to the cooling chamber to be scrubbed of humidity and heat, and then, pumped back into the greenhouse. While this offers incredible control and the most ideal environment, the utility expense during this period can be 10 times as much, or more expensive than the traditional positive pressure methodology of cooling a greenhouse through evaporation of outside ambient air temperature.
Many growers contemplate that this is the best option available today by providing them with the ability to utilize many different environmental control options as the seasons change, thus making their operation as efficient as possible.
Currently, the ultimate and most controlled environmental option available on the greenhouse market, a Totally Enclosed Greenhouse utilizes the design of positive pressure, along with traditional HVAC heating and cooling to consistently set the temperature and humidity to the exact set points
desired and the ability to achieve those set points year-round, regardless of outside temperatures or humidity.
With totally enclosed facilities, growers have the results of an indoor growing facility with complete control of temperature and humidity, but the key factor making this an attractive option in today’s Cannabis market is Natural Sunlight! However, this sunlight has also played a major role in limiting the success of year-round cultivation of high-quality flower in other greenhouse ventilation and cooling options previously mentioned. As the sunlight rises above the horizon, it immediately begins creating a solar buildup in the greenhouse. This thermal load from the sun, especially when humidity levels are very high, is less than ideal for Cannabis in flower, making it at times, almost impossible to maintain acceptable plant health during this period, which can result in crop failure and loss.
Day Light Integral (DLI) is a measure of the total light accumulated in a 24-hour period and when growing in a greenhouse, growers can reach a DLI of 40 moles per day per meter squared, which is an ideal light accumulation and is unobtainable in an indoor growing environment with grow lights only. Truly, there is no substitute for the sun when growing plants, but a totally enclosed greenhouse provides growers with a clean, exact condition, while still letting the sunlight in.
Finally, although totally enclosed facilities provide the most accurate control, they are an investment, as the ongoing energy usage increases the price to maintain.

Article 18: Foundations
Foundation options shown in this manual are for illustration purposes only and are intended to assist with the layout for posts and may not be suitable for Purchaser’s structure. Soil types and densities vary from location to location, even within a specific locale. Different foundation requirements will be based on Purchaser’s specific soil conditions, post spacing, wind loads, snow loads, etc. Seller can provide, upon request, engineering calculations to assist in determining foundation requirements with a local engineer for Purchaser’s structure based on local code requirements. It is the responsibility of Purchaser to obtain all necessary local code information and to inform Seller of the required loads for the county, as well as obtaining any permits which will be necessary. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties, it is the responsibility of the Purchaser to install this structure on an adequate foundation designed to meet local building codes. Structures using post-in-ground are required to set posts according to foundation design. All structures must have posts set in 3000 PSI commercial grade concrete. Failure to strictly adhere to buildings codes, the requirements set forth in this Agreement or the installation manual shall void all warranties.
Article 19: Severability
The invalidity of any provision of the Contract Documents shall not invalidate the Agreement or its remaining provisions. If it is determined that any provision of the Contract Documents violates any law, or is otherwise unenforceable, that provision shall be revised to the extent necessary to make that provision enforceable and legal. In such event, the Contract Documents shall be construed to the fullest extent of the law, to give effect to the Parties intention in executing the Contract Documents.
Article 20: Waiver of Consequential Damages
The Seller and Purchaser waive claims against each other for consequential damages. In no event, whether based on the Agreement, warranty (express or implied), tort, federal or state statute or otherwise arising from or relating to the work and services performed under the Agreement, shall Seller be liable for secondary, special, punitive, exemplary, incidental, speculative, consequential, or indirect damages, including loss of use or loss of profits.
Article 21: Acts of God
Seller shall not be liable for any damage, whether actual or consequential, or claim arising out of or relating to Acts of God, accidents, civil disturbances, failure or delay of transportation, shortage of or inability to obtain materials, equipment or labor, fires, hurricanes and other weather conditions, strikes, war or other causes beyond Seller’s reasonable control.
Article 22: No Third-Party Beneficiary
This Agreement is intended to benefit only the parties hereto and their successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to create rights in any third-party beneficiary.
Article 23: Assignment
This Agreement shall not be assignable by Purchaser without the written consent of the Seller. Any attempt at assignment may be deemed a default.
Article 24: Technical Support
Technical advice is limited by the information provided by the Purchaser and the Purchaser must make the ultimate decision since the Purchaser is on-site.
The Purchaser should consult the instruction manual and have it available when speaking to technical support. There is no guarantee of success of the technical assistance and no additional warranties are expressed or implied based upon any technical assistance given to the Purchaser Seller is not responsible for the Purchaser’s misunderstanding or misapplication of the technical advice given, other than what may qualify under the original warranties, terms, and conditions.
Article 25: Recommendations
Store all galvanized square, rectangle, and round tubing in a dry area. Galvanized hat purlins also need a dry area. If a dry, indoor area is not available for storage, cut the bundle straps and separate bundles, allowing air to dry out trapped moisture. Failure to do so will result in white oxidation forming on the metals.
A continuous inside temperature of 50°f at 3’-0” above floor level must be always maintained during cold weather or winter conditions. If snow begins to accumulate on the structure, increase the temperature until the accumulation is no longer present. Failure to do so will allow snow and ice to accumulate which may result in a structural failure due to excessive accumulation.
In case of heating failure, Seller recommends having an alternative heat source and/or generator and spare parts to allow for product function until full repairs or replacements can be made.
Maintain the poly covering to have a snug or almost tight fit year-round, it will expand, or contract based on changing temperatures and wind. Poly must not sag between framing members – failure to do so may result in pocketing of rain/snow which can cause serious damage or structural failure.
It is the Purchaser’s responsibility to ensure that double poly systems are always inflated. In case of electrical failure, use a generator to keep the inflation system running. When extreme weather conditions are predicted, it is recommended remove poly covering from the structures to prevent structural damage. Ensure all bolts, nuts, anchors, etc. are tightened securely when construction is complete. Extrusions which require ‘snap caps’ are designed for two layers of 6 mil poly to adequately hold in place: single wide lock, double wide lock, channel lock, Z-lock, Snow Arch gutter, RT Max gutter, Pro Com gutter, wall/hinge extrusion. If using these extrusions with seasonal 4 mil poly,
substitute the snap cap for stainless steel wire.
