Product Description
GT NFT Hydroponic System is a nutrient film technique growing system designed for greenhouse and indoor hydroponic cultivation. The system uses PVC growing channels with net cups to support plants while nutrient solution flows through the channels and reaches the plant root zone.
Rock wool can be used as a growing medium for seedling establishment and plant support. The Greenhouse equipment system can be configured according to crop type, greenhouse layout and required planting density.
Key Features of the NFT Hydroponic System
PVC Hydroponic Growing Channels
The PVC channels provide dedicated growing paths for hydroponic crops. Their layout, channel length and spacing can be customized according to the greenhouse structure and available cultivation area.
Net Cup Plant Support
Net cups hold the plants in position while allowing roots to extend into the nutrient solution channel. Different net cup sizes and planting spacings can be selected according to crop requirements.
Rock Wool Growing Medium
Rock wool can be used during seedling propagation and transplanting to provide physical support and retain moisture around the developing root system. The appropriate rock wool specification should be selected according to the crop and cultivation stage.
NFT Nutrient Solution Circulation
In an NFT system, a shallow flow of nutrient solution passes through the growing channels and supplies water and nutrients to plant roots. The solution can then be collected and returned to a reservoir for recirculation.

How Does an NFT Hydroponic System Work?
The nutrient solution is stored in a reservoir and delivered to the upper end of the PVC growing channels. A controlled flow moves along the bottom of each channel, allowing plant roots to access water and dissolved nutrients.
The solution is collected at the end of the channel and can be returned to the reservoir. This recirculating configuration helps reduce unnecessary water loss compared with non-recirculating growing methods, provided the system is properly designed and managed.

PVC Channel and Net Cup Design
The PVC channel provides the main growing pathway, while net cups position individual plants at defined intervals. This configuration makes it easier to organize crops and maintain consistent plant spacing.
Channel diameter, depth, planting holes and spacing should be selected according to crop size, root development and required nutrient solution flow.
Rock Wool for Seedling Propagation
Rock wool is commonly used to support seedlings before or during transfer into hydroponic system. Its structure provides a stable growing medium while retaining water and air around the roots.
For commercial production, seedling size, moisture management and transplant timing should be considered when selecting the rock wool configuration.
Greenhouse NFT Hydroponic Applications
The system is suitable for:
- Leafy vegetable production
- Lettuce cultivation
- Herbs
- Seedling propagation
- Nursery production
- Indoor hydroponic growing
- Greenhouse hydroponic farming
- Commercial controlled-environment cultivation
Customized NFT Hydroponic Growing Systems
China Greenhouse equipment supplier can configure NFT hydroponic systems according to greenhouse dimensions, crop type, planting density and production capacity. Custom options can include PVC channel dimensions, channel length, plant spacing, net cup size, rock wool configuration, support structures, nutrient reservoirs, pumps and control systems.
For a project quotation, provide the greenhouse size, target crop, required planting area and preferred NFT layout. The channel arrangement and nutrient circulation system can then be designed around the actual cultivation requirements.
