Welcome to the electronic handbook for the production of CEA hydroponic spinach.
This handbook is designed to be a comprehensive manual for the production of Nutrient
Film grown CEA (Controlled Environment Agriculture), or greenhouse, spinach.
More
importantly, it is designed to be interactive. A few notes are
in order about the extent of our experience in spinach production. The reader
should bear in mind our experience is not unlimited. This handbook describes the
procedures developed in the course of almost 35 trials at the Kenneth Post Laboratory
at Cornell University and procedures were initially based on findings in literature,
our prior experience with leaf lettuce and were modified as we gained experience.
We found spinach to be a difficult crop when compared with leaf lettuce.
