What strategies can help cannabis businesses use water more efficiently and sustainably?
AlphaRoot Team
Water usage is one of the largest environmental concerns. A single cannabis plant may require up to six gallons of water per day. To conserve:
• Implement drip or sub-surface irrigation to deliver water directly to roots and reduce evaporation.
• Capture and reuse water, such as rainwater harvesting and condensate from HVAC systems.
• Monitor soil moisture sensors to avoid over-watering.
• Use mulching and cover crops to retain soil moisture and reduce weed growth.
Efficient water management preserves local resources and can lower utility bills.
