Only 5 liters of water for one kilo of tomato
To grow one kilo of tomato, it takes about 5 liters of water. That may seem like a lot, but this is less than one garden watering can. Compare that to the amount of water you need for a good yield in the vegetable garden. That's because our growers collects, filters and reuses the excess water a plant doesn't use. Not a drop of water goes to waste.

Tomato plants can grow up to 12 meter tall!
In the greenhouse tomato plants grow up to about 12 meters high, but the greenhouse is not that high at all! Our growers found a solution: the plants grow up along a wire. As soon as the plant reaches the top, they lower it slightly each time and move the plant up horizontally at the top. In grower-speak, this is called turning in, pruning, thieving and lowering.
