🗑
fans bring in small amounts of cool outside air and mix it with the warm air   Fan-tube ventilation  
🗑
equipment used for the irrigation of plants with exact proportions of fertilizers obtained from a concentrate of water-fertilizer and water   Fertilizer injector system  
🗑
cooler and more efficient that incandescent lights; have a wide range of wavelengths and long life   Fluorescent lighting  
🗑
fog is generated inside; as the minute fog droplets evaporate, heat is absorbed   Fog-evaporative cooling system

🗑
automated system utilizing fabrics to block light from reaching crops   Shade curtains  
🗑
automated system utilizing fabrics to insulate the greenhouse at night   19. Short-day curtains  
🗑
water is applied to the growing medium by slowly saturating the medium   Soaker hose system  
🗑
water heated to a boil and steam travels through pipes in the greenhouse   Steam heat  
🗑
water is carried to each pot by a microtube; foliage is not wet in this process   Tube irrigation  
🗑
