How HVAC and Airflow Can Affect Microbial Risk in Cannabis Cultivation
Could Your HVAC System Be Moving More Than Air?
Commercial cannabis cultivation depends heavily on environmental control.
Temperature.
Humidity.
Air movement.
Dehumidification.
Filtration.
These systems help create the conditions plants need to grow.
But when a cultivation operation experiences recurring microbial contamination, HVAC and airflow also deserve careful evaluation.

The material your plants are growing in.
Coco coir is widely used in commercial cannabis cultivation.
That doesn't mean coco is automatically responsible for an Aspergillus failure.
It does mean growing media should be included in a comprehensive contamination investigation.
