The Australian company will use the controlled growth environment from a third-party maker of controlled-growth environment systems Conviron. This controlled environment lets the researchers control all aspects of the growth including light output, nutrients, water, airflow, temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide. The goal of the research is to achieve greater yield per square meter, resulting in more cost-effective and economical cannabinoid-based pharmaceuticals.
