The idea of year-round indoor farming may seem impossible, but with a concrete dome from KingDome Builders of Brooks Construction, that dream can be a reality. Our domes offer a perfect environment for growing in any climate, at any time of year. Keep reading to learn about the potential of utilizing concrete dome structures for year-round grow rooms.
A Stable and Controlled Environment
Concrete domes make it easy for you to control temperature, humidity levels, light exposure, airflow, and water drainage—everything that a plant needs to thrive. For example, concrete domes make it easy to maintain proper moisture levels with an indoor sprinkler system.
Additionally, concrete domes are air-tight, which wards off airborne pollutants and provides a bug-free growing environment. Domes also seal off any pests or other animals that would otherwise try to eat your crops.
And your time spent in the garden is significantly reduced when you utilize a concrete dome for indoor farming because you no longer need to worry about weeding or watering.
Offers Year-Round Growing Opportunity
One major problem that growers face is dealing with seasonal limitations. A concrete dome offers an ideal environment for year-round growth courtesy of its inherent heat retention and stable growing conditions. In other words, you could grow things like roses or fresh produce during wintertime (or any time) when they might not normally grow due to cold weather.
Energy Efficient
Concrete domes also allow you to have a more controlled temperature for indoor farming because they are insulated from external weather conditions. This means less reliance on air-conditioning or heating systems throughout the growth cycle. Less energy is needed to condition the environment, which means lower electric bills.
Sustainable
The concrete dome structure is strong and durable, which means you don’t have to worry about leaks or cracks. These structures can withstand tornadic winds, making them perfect for growing plants in areas where damaging winds are expected. Our dome construction materials also inhibit the growth of any mold or fungi. As a result, a concrete dome will look new year after year with very little maintenance required for your indoor farming facility.
Increased Productivity
When you have a more controlled and stable indoor farming environment, it keeps your plants healthy and productive, increasing your yields. Our concrete domes enhance crop production, which puts money in your pocket.
Privacy
Another notable aspect of concrete domes is that they offer the utmost privacy. You can grow whatever you want at any time of the year without worrying about your neighbors or curious passersby seeing what’s going on.
Customizable Sizing
We can also customize our concrete domes to be any shape or size. So, whether you’re growing fruit trees or cultivating smaller plants, we can build to suit your indoor farming needs.
All-in-one Solution
Lastly, a concrete dome is an all-in-one solution for your growing needs. It provides a space that works as both a storage facility and a growing room, providing peace of mind that your investment is protected from Mother Nature’s harshest environments.
