Cory Roof, Ogallala Greens
Cory Roof, the CEO of Ogallala Greens, discusses the advantages of hydroponic growing for lettuce, greens, and other fresh produce. He shares his personal journey in starting a local produce business in Post/Slaton/Lubbock TX. He emphasizes the importance of nutrition and the challenges of obtaining fresh, healthy greens.
- Volunteering at a food bank in Los Angeles opened Cory’s eyes to the importance of good food.
- Cory's hydroponics journey started while working at Plenty, a hydroponics company in San Francisco, before returning to his hometown Slaton in West Texas.
- Hydroponic greens are grown in a water-based system with the root ball attached, offering maximum freshness and longer shelf life.
- The greenhouse temperature is carefully controlled to stay within the ideal range for lettuce growth, typically between 50 to 85 Fahrenheit.
- The amount of nitrogen in the water can increase the heat tolerance of the lettuce plants.
- Ogallala Greens began selling in April 2022 and has faced several setbacks due to a greenhouse structure being knocked down by wind.
- The business is growing and aims to serve not only Lubbock but also expand to Amarillo and Midland and, possibly, the Dallas metroplex.
