Description

DESCRIPTION

UV film greenhouse with lighting for crops

TECHNIQUE SECTOR

This application refers to a greenhouse closed by UV film windows with lighting for crops, especially, but not exclusively, cannabis for industrial or research use.

It is applicable in the field of agriculture, especially outdoor and greenhouse cultivation. .

STATE OF THE ART

The use of lights, especially indoors, to promote plant growth is known in the state of the art. When white lights are used, this means a very broad spectrum of illumination covering all visible light and going into the infrared and ultraviolet. An example of a lighting system can be seen in ES1212138U.

On the other hand, in the cultivation of cannabis it is necessary to monitor the presence of THC, tetrahydrocannabinol, since it is a controlled component. Therefore, for the use of industrial cannabis, medical research... it is convenient to develop cultures with a very low level of this substance. It is necessary to stop the potential of the plant to produce quantity and quality of resins, cannabinoids and terpenes.

The Applicant is not aware of any system that allows solving all these problems.

BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The invention consists of a greenhouse with translucent UV solar protection sheets and luminaire for crops that act as a reinforcement on days with insufficient sunlight according to the first claim, through a solar filter that applies it and a greenhouse structure that supports it. Its different variants solve the problems outlined.

The greenhouse with UV sheets, retains the ultraviolet light that reaches the crops, to improve different aspects of production: it significantly reduces cannabinoids, and can produce the precocity of the crops. Since the greenhouse remains closed by the uv sheets, it allows the improvement of pest and disease control.

The greenhouse with UV sheets comprises a tunnel-type structure with a plurality of windows that have UV sheets to illuminate the plants through these translucent walls, filtering UV light.

Other variants are appreciated in the rest of the memory.

DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

For a better understanding of the invention, the following figure is included.

MODES OF CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

An embodiment of the invention is briefly described below, as an illustrative and non-limiting example thereof.

The greenhouse with solar filter and lighting, will be described with an example of cultivation of industrial hemp varieties and for research in the medical field of cannabis. In this case, the goal is to reduce the total cannabinoid levels, offering the plant all the nutrients to reproduce optimally in its vegetative and flowering phases.

The greenhouse with lighting for crops, for the reduction of THC in cannabis, comprises a tunnel-type structure (1) with a plurality of windows (2) that have protective sheets from UV rays, the plants are illuminated through these translucent walls.

In a preferred embodiment, the windows (2) have an opening and closing system to regulate the temperature inside the greenhouse.

Generally, the roof (3) of the structure (1) will be a canvas that folds automatically by the action of a motor activated by means of drive.

This allows us to control, depending on our needs, the hours of light that the crop receives, increasing or decreasing it in order to have the crop in the growth or flowering phase. The automatic awning will also allow the crop to be protected from inclement weather. In cases where it is necessary to close the awning to protect the crop, such as heavy rain or wind in seasons close to autumn or winter.

In cases where it is necessary to close the awning while the plant is in daylight, the luminaires will automatically turn on to complete the necessary daylight hours. These luminaires are distributed throughout the greenhouse and would be located mainly between the solar sheet and the automatic awning.

Preferably for when the awning is open (COVERING THE GREENHOUSE), there will be an air extraction system made up of a series of extractors strategically located inside the greenhouse.

The roll-up canvas will be made of an opaque material, white on the outside and fireproof. Being white on its outer face helps to bounce the sun's rays.

Preferably the structure (1) will be made up of a series of arc-shaped elements (4) that have a slot along its length through which the folding canvas will slide.

Claims (1)

1- Greenhouse with lighting for crops, for the reduction of THC in cannabis, characterized in that it comprises a tunnel-type structure (1) with a plurality of windows (2) that have UV sheets to illuminate the plants through these translucent walls that they filter UV light. 2- Greenhouse with lighting for crops, according to claim 1, characterized in that the windows (2) have an opening and closing system. 3- Greenhouse with lighting for crops, according to claim 1, characterized in that the roof (3) of the structure (1) is a canvas that folds automatically by the action of a motor activated by means of drive. 4- Greenhouse with lighting for crops, according to claim 1, characterized in that it has an air extraction system made up of a series of extractors strategically located inside the greenhouse. 5- Greenhouse with lighting for crops, according to claim 3, characterized in that the folding canvas is made of an opaque material, white on the outside and fireproof. 6- Greenhouse with lighting for crops, according to the previous claims, characterized in that the structure (1) is made up of a series of arc-shaped elements (4) that have a groove along its length through which the light will slide. folding canvas.
