Which greenhouse suits Sheoganj?
For hydroponic farm construction in Sheoganj, the structure decides which months you can crop and what it costs to run. The heat in Sheoganj comes with dry air. In April to June, average highs reach 41°C while average humidity is only about 34%. In that dry air, wet pads can bring a 41°C May afternoon down to roughly 30°C inside a Fan & Pad polyhouse, cool enough for lettuce and other leafy greens. For vine crops such as capsicum and cucumber, a naturally ventilated polyhouse with a shade screen works from February and November and costs less to run.
Sunlight peaks in May at about 7.4 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 February to March and September to December, when it is mild and fairly dry.
Hydroponic crops for Sheoganj
Based on Sheoganj's climate, the crops with the longest growing windows are coriander (all year), mint (all year) and basil (10 months). Coriander fits all year with Fan & Pad cooling. These are the crops we would plan first for hydroponic farm construction in Sheoganj.

Hydroponic farm construction in Sheoganj: FAQs
Can a hydroponic farm run all year in Sheoganj?

Which polyhouse is best for Sheoganj?
With May highs of about 41°C and 31% average humidity in that month, we would start with a Fan & Pad polyhouse for leafy greens.
Which hydroponic crops should I start with in Sheoganj?
Going by the monthly climate, coriander, mint and basil have the longest growing windows. Confirm prices and volumes with buyers before you plant.
