Thomas Peters, Business Development Manager at Grodan:

"For us, the key aim is to push the boundaries and do things differently"

At this year's GreenTech, Grodan showcases the latest innovations and all elements of Grodan's growing solutions. A bonus this year is Grodan's promise of an exciting announcement on June 13, inviting you to stay tuned for what's coming.

Pushing the boundaries
Thomas Peters, Business Development Manager at Grodan, will be one of the speakers on the Technology Stage. He will be sharing Grodan's latest insights regarding cultivating strawberries on stone wool based on extensive trials. In order to explore the possibilities in propagation as well as grow-out, Grodan is working with renowned research institutes that have all the right facilities, equipment, people, and expertise. The latest insights include:

  • The impact of EC and irrigation strategy on young plant quality and subsequent yield in the short-term grow-out trial.
  • Investigation of EC on yield, quality, and shelf life in the production of everbearing varieties such as Favori & Albion. "For us, the key aim is to push the boundaries and do things differently," says Peters.
