Carbon Dioxide for GreenHouse Growing of Fruits & Vegetables

Greater Yield and Stronger Stems

Optimal greenhouse growing can be achieved with the effective use of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is an essential component of photosynthesis. Sugars produced during photosynthesis are used for growth within the plant via the respiration process. CO₂ increases productivity through improved plant growth and vigor. Examples include earlier flowering, higher fruit yields, improved stem strength and flower size.

Using liquid CO₂ from Linde provides advantages to growers including purity of product, no concerns about crop damage, no heat or moisture production, better control of CO₂ levels and the flexibility to introduce the CO₂ within the plant canopy at any time.

Liquid CO₂ is low-cost to install and the process is a simple one. Linde can provide product right when it’s needed and the levels of CO₂ can be programmed to reflect your growing conditions. For a small operation the CO₂ may be supplied in cylinders.
