Go grow are growing units in which students can easily grow fruits or vegetables and create their own school farm. This concept responds to the future of eating and the necessary change in human eating habits. Go grow introduces students to the entire process of growing plants, in order to realize the added value of hand-grown crops.
The cultivation system is based on the hydroponic principle, which means growing plants without soil but in a nutrient solution. The benefits of hydroponics include faster plant growth and less susceptibility to diseases.
The Go grow unit also serves students as an educational tool, in which the whole process takes place, from planting seeds to harvesting crops.During the germination phase, the unit needs to be closed to ensure a more stable environment. Pupils place the germinated plants in a pre-prepared pad with flower pots, which can be used repeatedly. During cultivation, it is necessary to constantly check the aqueous solution and add it according to the needs of the plant. The last phase is the plant collection, after which the student disassembles the unit and washes the main parts of the container. Then the whole unit is ready for the next cultivation cycle.
