Filling Machines …
Soil Filling Machines Provide an Important Part of Mechanization of Hydroponic Greenhouses and Due to The Use of Machines, Benefits and The Following Advantages Are Obtained Figures (1), (2):
♦ Increasing The Area Under The Cultivation Of Crops Due To The High Speed And Performance Of The Machines Compared To The Traditional Methods Of Filling And Culturing.
♦ Reduction of Seed Consumption and Uniformity of Plant Coverage On the Greenhouse.
♦ Increasing Efficiency Due To The Possibility Of Quick And Timely Fight Against Pests And Diseases As Soon As The Initial Symptoms Are Observed.
♦ Reducing The Finished Price of the Product Due to The Ever-Increasing Wages of Human Resource.

TIDAPARS [AUTOMATIC POTTING MACHINES] PROPERTISES:
Automatic Potting Machines Figure (3), Is Suitable For Various Types Of Pot And Can Also Fill 2500 Pot Per Hour In Hydroponic Greenhouses. This Machine Is Suitable for soil Filling and Cultivation of Seeds and Seedlings in Different Sizes.
♦ Suitable for All Kinds of Plastic Pots in Different Sizes.
♦ The Ability to Fill the Pot with All Kinds of Growing Media: Coco peat, Perlite and All Kinds of Heavy Soil.
♦ Maintain Soil Quality And Structure.
♦ Design To Prevent Soil Bridging.
♦ The Ability to Create Holes in Different Depths and Diameters.

TIDAPARS AUTOMATIC/SEMIAUTOMATIC FILLING DEVICES APPLICATIONS ARE…?
The Presence of Pathogens, Fungal, Bacterial, And Viral Factors and Pests, Improper Soil Reaction, Poor Soil Compaction, Erosion and So On. Due to The Change of Culture Pattern with The Aim of Increasing Yield Per Unit Area and Reducing Water Consumption, The Use of Greenhouse Culturing Methods, Especially The Hydroponics culture, Has Become Popular. The Key Elements of Producing a Better Soil-Free Culture in Mechanized Condition Is Application of Filling Machines That Are Illustrated in Figure (4).
Figure (4). Semi Automatic Filling Machine of TIDAPARS
The Important Function of The TIDAPARS Filling Machines, Is The Ability to Preserve All Types of Solid Media and Culture Media Including Coco peat, Perlite, Sand, Garden Soil, And All Types of Moist and Heavy Soils. Plants Grown By Hydroponics Are Consistently High Quality And Yield, Fast Yield, And Sufficient Nutrient Content.
SOIL CULTIVATION DISADVANTAGES:
♦ High Water Consumption.
♦ The Transmission Of Pests And Diseases Is Fast (Pests And Insects).
♦ Weed Growth.
♦ A Large Space Should Be Available.
POT CULTIVATION/ FILLING MACHINES OF TIDAPARS ADVANTAGES:
♦ Easy Movement of Plants.
♦ Ability to Control Adverse Weather Conditions On Products.
♦ No Weeds.
♦ Special Nutrition by Planting in A Pot.
♦ Easy Control of Soil Problems.
HYDROPONIC CULTURE, YES OR NO?
Soilless Culture Is A Method Of Plants Culture With Their Roots Immersed In Nutrient Solution. It Provides Fresh Products in Countries with Limited Agricultural Land, Small and Populous Countries. TIDAPARS Products such as soil Filling Machines in Hydroponic Systems Figure (5), Are A Positive Approach in Improving Greenhouse Mechanization.
Figure (5). TIDAPARS Vision of One Hydroponic System
There Are Different Types of Hydroponic Cultivation Compared to Soil Cultivation of Plants. Open Field Agriculture Is Complex as It Involves, A Large Area, Large Staff and A Large Volume of Water Consumption. In Other Words, Soil Cultivation Takes Up More Space Than Hydroponic culture, and to Achieve the Same Amount of Monthly Crop Production, You Need More Space.
SOIL CULTURE OR HYDROPONIC?
TIDAPARS Helps Hydroponic And SoYou Can Have More Products With Less Cost. High Water Consumption and Unfavorable Media Conditions Cause Problems in The Absorption of Nutrients. The Washing Of Nutrients By Water Increases The Consumption Of Chemical Fertilizers In Soil Cultivation. While, In Hydroponic Culture, Other Cultural Practices Such as Weed Control Are Avoided. This Is the Reason Why the Use of Soil Cultivation Media Reduces the Productivity Figure (6).
The High Amount Of Water Consumption In Soil Cultivation Is Due To Low Moisture Absorption. Because, The Water Holding Capacity Among The Particles Of This Type Media Is Low.

SOLID MEDIA CULTURE:
Soil Filling Machines Designed for All of Solid Media Material Figure (7) Selected Must Be Flexible with Water Holding Capacity and Can Be Drained Easily. In Addition, It Must Be Free Of Pests, Disease And Toxic Substances. Types of Solid Media Culture Are Hanging Bag Technique, Grow Bag Technique, Trench or Trough Technique, Pot Technique and Aeroponics. In Pot Technique The Volume Of The Container And Growing Media Depend On The Crop Growth Requirements.
Figure (7). Types of Solid Media Culture
TIDAPARS INTRODUCE DIFFERENT SOILLESS MEDIUM!
There Are Different Soilless Medium That We Will Discuss Them Further Figure (8).
Coco peat: It Is a Complete Source of Organic Matter Made from Activated Coconut Husks.
Perlite: The Most Common Type Of Media Used In Systems With Soil-Free Culture Containers Is Perlite.
Peat Moss: Peat Moss Retains Moisture In Culture Media.
Vermiculite: This Compound Contains Both Potassium And Magnesium.
Sand: And Is Useful As A Planting Ground For Plants That Need Dry, Open Soil.
Sphagnum Moss: It Is To Be Widely Used Because It Will Retain Moisture And Nutrients By Not Allowing Water To Flow.

Conclusion
Plants Grown By Hydroponics Are Consistently High Quality And Yield. Important Factor In Greenhouses Especially Hydroponic Greenhouses Is Mechanization. In Addition To Reducing Production Costs, It Increases Work Speed, Crops Quality And Yield. One Of The Cases That Provides An Important Part Of Mechanization Of Hydroponic Greenhouses Is Filling Machine.
