Which greenhouse suits Palwal?
For hydroponic farm construction in Palwal, the structure decides which months you can crop and what it costs to run. The heat in Palwal comes with dry air. In April to June, average highs reach 43°C while average humidity is only about 27%. In that dry air, wet pads can bring a 43°C May afternoon down to roughly 31°C inside a Fan & Pad polyhouse, which keeps herbs and vine crops going; lettuce will still struggle in the hottest weeks. For vine crops such as capsicum and cucumber, a naturally ventilated polyhouse with a shade screen works from November and costs less to run.
Sunlight peaks in May at about 6.7 kWh per m² a day, so add a shade screen for leafy greens in the brightest months. A nethouse, the lowest-cost option, can grow hardy crops in March and October to November, when it is mild and fairly dry.
Hydroponic crops for Palwal
Based on Palwal's climate, the crops with the longest growing windows are coriander (9 months), basil (8 months) and mint (8 months). Coriander fits August to April with Fan & Pad cooling. These are the crops we would plan first for hydroponic farm construction in Palwal.
