What is Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA)? What is sealed cultivation? What does control actually mean when we talk about growing? This webinar, brought to you by Ceres Greenhouse Solutions, will explore these questions and why they matter for professional cannabis cultivation.

Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) in cannabis has been heavily focused on indoor environments with artificial lighting. Our focus is on incorporating principles of CEA with the intelligence of nature in order to maximize plant photosynthesis and facility energy efficiency. Using sunlight as the main ingredient, we will discuss how to create an ideal environment for high yielding and high quality production.

Whether you are a grower, builder, investor, someone who operates generally in the cannabis business sphere, or someone who is just interested in the future of cannabis cultivation technologies; this webinar will highlight some of the important technologies involved in modern greenhouse design, as well as our unique approach to facilitating cultivation to market strategies for those looking to enter this world of cannabis growth.
