- Observation The container system had the highest vegetative growth characteristics among substrate systems.
- Observation The bags system attained the highest yield among substrate systems.
- Observation The bags substrate system had average yield per m2 of 15.2 kg/m2.
- Observation The bags substrate system had average PUE of 2.4 kg/kw.
