The optimal formulation of a readily compostable horticultural growing substrate for vertical farming was determined using design of experiments

Abstract A novel, optimized, polysaccharide and biochar-based, compostable hydrogel horticultural growing substrate for use in hydroponics and vertical farming was created based upon empirical methods and statistical design of experiments. A 15-run D-optimal mixture design of experiments was complet...
