Description
Our 9"x72" grow channels are built for serious commercial hydroponic production. They support microgreens, baby greens, leafy greens, and herbs while maintaining clean water flow and strong aeration at the root zone across the full 72" channel length.
Plants anchor well, stay evenly hydrated, and develop healthier roots, which leads to tighter, more uniform growth at commercial scale. Harvesting is fast, contamination risk is lower, and setup stays organized whether you are running a single rack or a full production facility.
The channels are made from durable, food-safe plastic and create a clean, soil-free environment that is easy to sanitize between cycles. They hold a 9 inch (228mm) grow medium and pair perfectly with our reusable 9"x72" grow mats. They also perform well with materials like burlap or biostrate.
These channels are designed specifically for the Commercial Production Rack. The CPR holds 54 active channels simultaneously. Each channel requires one End Cap to seal the inlet end and one Drain Cap to connect the outlet end to your plumbing. Pair with a 9"x72" reusable grow mat to complete your setup.

Benefits
Consistent growth with healthier root development at commercial scale.
- Plants anchor firmly and stay evenly hydrated across the full 72" channel length, which reduces uneven growth and improves harvest quality across all 54 active channels simultaneously.
Advanced drainage that prevents waterlogging and mold pressure
- The channel design allows water to flow through completely and return to your reservoir. Roots never sit in standing water, which keeps mold pressure low and root health high across your entire rack.
Easy to clean and built for constant commercial use
- Food-safe plastic construction creates a smooth, soil-free surface that rinses quickly between cycles. Clogging is rare. Cleaning is fast. The same channel runs cycle after cycle at commercial volume without degrading.
Full 72" coverage with no gaps
- The channel covers the complete length of a CPR grow slot end to end. No partial coverage, no gaps, no uneven moisture zones at the edges. Every inch of the channel surface is productive.
Pairs with reusable grow mats to eliminate soil costs across the entire rack
- The 9"x72" channel is designed to work with our reusable grow mats. One mat fits one channel precisely and lasts 65 to 70 cycles. At 54 active channels per rack, switching to reusable mats cuts your annual growing media cost to near zero across your entire operation.
