After breaking ground on a second greenhouse in the spring, Red Sun plans to start the hiring process this fall and plant the first crop in early 2017.
Water quality regulations in many regions of California now require farmers to report the amount of nitrogen fertilizer they apply to their fields and the nitrate concentration of their irrigation water.
In deciding about the size of the plot of land for your greenhouse, be sure you take into account whether you will be a wholesale or a retail business, or some combination of the two like many growers.
