Access to controlled growth chambers

Conditions can be regulated and data can be comprehensively recorded using Senmatic greenhouse automation in two fully controlled indoor growth chambers. The rooms enable various growth temperatures, humidity balances, intensive cultivation, and climate change simulations (e.g., warmer growth conditions, added carbon dioxide, and humidity variations).

In the larger growth chamber, it is also possible to conduct frost resistance testing of seedlings, short-day treatments, and create, for example, two growing seasons. The room height also allows for tree cultivation.

The service includes access to the platform for conducting research, equipment, and experimental arrangements carried out by professional staff. The service covers platform and equipment preparation, execution of agreed experiments and observations during the trial, sample and data collection, and, if needed, preprocessing in a support laboratory and delivery of results.

Observation of experiments, sample collection, and measurements.
