Sweetbay uses the Nutrient Film Technique (N.F.T.) together with computer controlled remote monitoring. This can be the most productive method of growing vegetative crops hydroponically, in a modest amount of space. N.F.T. is a method where plants are held in a sloped gutter with a holed collar. The roots are not held in place with a soil medium, but are allowed to grow freely within the gutter. A constant thin film of nutrient provides food to the roots. Quality, fresh produce locally grown.
