Growing vegetables in an apartment is not a new idea. Take at least the notorious bow, which many housewives diligently arrange in pots or mugs in order to get the greens.
Many go further and skillfully grow various vegetables and greens, and fruits are also in the apartments of skilled gardeners.
Only here for any such result requires not only the acquisition of the necessary materials, but also time costs. In addition, there are some risks that can be caused by the need to comply with different growing conditions and the like.
Process optimization
Of course, some people just like to tinker with plants and beds in this there is some kind of hobby, but there are also people who for the most part are just interested in fresh food.
Conditionally we will call such people pragmatic. They seek to reduce the time spent on non-specific activities and get the most out of their own capabilities.
Probably, it was mainly for such people that Fibonacci home farms, a developed idea of a home garden, were invented. The difference here lies in the improved technological equipment and, as a consequence, the complete automation of the process.
Thus, now you are not growing vegetables, fruits and berries, but they themselves grow, more precisely they are grown by the Fibonacci system.
Vegetable garden from Fibonacci
The name of this brand and devices refers to a famous mathematician from Italy with an identical last name. This fact is determined by the composition of the company Fibonacci, which includes experts from Italy and specialists from Russia. So what is this garden?
- Let's start with the exterior. Before us is something like a cabinet or display case with shelves. In each row there are sections intended for plants, above each row there is an installation with LEDs for lighting.
- We continue the internal filling. As a rule, each section has 4 wells for plants, hoses for drip irrigation of each well are located under the section. In addition, it includes a processor that automatically controls lighting, irrigation and ventilation.
- We complete the functionality. In order to start growing you just need to put a specially purchased soil into the wells and turn on the program. Then it remains only to collect the plants, which the creators promise about twenty kilograms per month, if you take for example tomatoes or strawberries.
The basic concept of manufacturers is to make a garden with home appliances, which simply performs the desired function and saves a significant amount of time.
In addition, such an automated garden allows the owners to receive products directly from the garden, and in this, many have substantial demand. After all, store plants retain much less useful elements, and many even squeamish such purchases, since it is not known where these vegetables were stored and what they touched.
Most valuable
Of course, the most valuable thing for many modern people: health and comfort, but money still remains more valuable.
So, talk about money, but rather about the cost of the garden Fibonacci.
The most common and compact version costs about 400 thousand rubles, and with this phrase you realize the prospect of acquiring a home garden.
Of course, at this time the Fibonacci farm is an expensive pleasure that is not available to everyone, and if you choose between building a country house (the cost is almost identical) and buying such equipment, many will choose the first. Nevertheless, the project is very interesting and promising.
Profitability
In the standard set, you can grow 24 different plants, since each section can be configured separately and according to its own program. The soil (immediately with the seeds) is supplied by the producers, as well as the nutrient mixture for irrigation. Thus, you are fully procured from the supplier’s company and, by the way, these purchases will require about 5 thousand rubles a month.
In order to calculate the profitability you can take, for example, such a parameter as 25 kilograms of strawberries per month (if you fill the whole garden only with strawberries) and calculate the cost.
Summary
In addition, you need to say a few words about where this cost of the equipment itself comes from. The device is more than high-tech and not only defines and controls programs for a wide variety of plants, but also has additional modules for control via Internet applications. Moreover, there is a webcam that allows you to see how your radish grows, lettuce, or whatever you plant there.
Such options add functionality, but whether they are needed as much as a sleek design is a big question. Most likely in the future there may appear manufacturers who can make a more accessible version, for example, without control over the Internet and watching the webcam for how your beds grow. Given the substantial demand for such a project, it is possible to assume only further development.
