Each month, we publish a newsletter discussing a trending topic within the cannabis industry and how it shapes Surna’s philosophy. To be one of the first to receive this information, be sure to sign up for our email list.
One piece of feedback we receive often has to do with the size of the Surna Reflector. At 33×32” inches, the Surna Reflector is larger than most reflectors on the market, but for good reason.
We would love to see a future in which cannabis can be grown outdoors; however, this is not always feasible given the current regulatory structure, nor will it ever be 100% possible. While many will claim that food production is done outdoors, and thus commercial cannabis production should be done in the same way, there are a few factors that make cannabis production different than food production.
The Surna team is headed to Las Vegas next week for Weed Week 2015, a combination of events all happening over the course of a single week in Las Vegas, including Arcview’s Investor Forum and the Marijuana Business Conference & Expo.
So your state recently passed legislation for legalizing cannabis or is about to open the application process? (Here’s looking at you Maryland, Oregon, Alaska and Hawaii.) Whether medicinal marijuana or recreational cannabis, if you are thinking about applying for a license, there are a few important things to keep in mind, especially if you plan on cultivating.
Liquid cooling involves transferring heat in the air to liquid running through the system. As a closed loop system, liquid-cooled climate control can also provide dehumidification in addition to cooling. Pipes run liquid through the building and into air handlers located in the room. From there, the warm air is blown over cold pipes that absorb the heat in the air, resulting in cold air and warmer water leaving the air handler. For more information, read up on Chilled-Water Cooling Basics.

When looking at your cooling options for your commercial grow, you may hear the terms Dry Coolers and Cooling Towers. While these systems accomplish similar results, they are not synonymous. Let’s look at the differences and get a better understanding of how these cooling approaches work.
