Greenhouse Irrigation Planner.
Size daily water demand, pump capacity, storage buffer and filtration category for a commercial greenhouse or hydroponic project.
- Primary screen / disc filter <= 130 micron on delivery line.
- Fertigation head with EC/pH dosing and mixing tanks.

SeedMatchGroup is a supplier-neutral platform. We do not manufacture or resell greenhouse equipment — we help buyers specify the project correctly, open one private RFQ to qualified global manufacturers, integrators and EPCs, and match matching financing tracks.
Frequently asked questions
Typical peak daily water demand ranges 3-7 L/m2/day depending on crop, climate, VPD and irrigation strategy. Recirculating fertigation systems can cut fresh-water demand 30-50% versus drain-to-waste.
Storage buffers between water source (well, mains, harvested rainwater) and peak irrigation demand, and covers outages. Commercial greenhouses target 3-7 days of reservoir buffer plus rain-harvesting tanks if the roof allows.
Drip and fertigation require <= 130 micron primary filtration (screen or disc) and often secondary sand or membrane for surface water. Hydroponic recirculation adds UV or ozone disinfection.
