It has been more than a year since our DutchGreenhouse came into use in Maryland. Before greenhouse construction started, DutchGreenhouses® had already outfitted the adjacent indoor cannabis facility. Both are now up and running, and the workflows are seamlessly integrated. It is a good moment to share pictures and give a virtual video tour!
Project Background
The indoor facility came first, outfitted with cannabis cultivation systems, high-tech fertigation units and growlights. Then it was time for a scale-up. The business case for the Maryland cannabis greenhouse was simple: use natural sunlight and manage irrigation precisely.
The operation is fully suited with movable containers. These ensure rapid replanting and an excellent workflow at harvest stations and replanting stages. Labor activities are optimized, and the crop gets optimum maintenance. From the workflow design to the last PAR sensors, DutchGreenhouses® has provided all ingredients for the production of superior-quality cannabis.

Looking back, expanding the indoor facility with the glass cannabis greenhouse has been a success. The energy bill has decreased. Cultivation results — both in yields and taste — have increased. Our customer will pass all cost savings from this project on to buyers through a lower sales price. A double win!
Not Your Typical Greenhouse
