The Inka Stretch Garden mounts to existing
structures such as a chain link fences or walls to grow food
hydroponically. This product is
recommended for outdoor use.
The
Inka Stretch Garden can grow almost any kind of plant except root
vegetables. It can grow flowers,
grasses, herbs, fruit, vegetables and many other types of plants in the
appropriate environment, climate and season. In fact, we are interested in what
successes you do have.
The
best results are achieved when the plants are married to the climate and the
season. Light,
water, temperature, and humidity are chief factors affecting plant growth, and
any one of these factors in incorrect proportions may prevent or interfere with
plant growth. To help monitor your
plant's water in-take, the
water supply can be metered by a timer. If the growing environment can become
very cool, a heat pad for the root zone is available for separate purchase.
If
you want to push the envelope and extend the growing season of your pants, it
is necessary to house the Stretch Garden in a greenhouse to be able to have
better control over the growing environment. Plants can be grown in-doors in a greenhouse if desired,
but, for best results, we suggest selecting plants that require the same environmental
conditions as the location of the Inka Stretch Garden rather than altering the
environment to suit the plants.
Technical Specifications
The
Stretch Garden is a wall/fence mounted vertical food production system using
patented technology that supports hydroponic food production.
The
Inka Stretch Garden is manufactured to the customer's specifications. There is no limit to the length of the
Inka Stretch Garden and the height can be up to 30 feet. The growing area uses

circulates water and nutrients to the seedlings. Providing plants with a rich
nutrient environment makes them healthier and thus more resistant to disease
