Shilajit: Nature’s Secret to Energy and Vitality

The creator of the universe has created thousands and thousands of resources and things for the good and improvement of man in the world. It is impossible to count them, so it is not enough for us to mention their features and benefits. The dark substance that magically emerges from the mountains is Shilajit.

What is Shilajit ?
Silajit or Shilajit is a black colored mineral with a strong smell and a bitter taste that comes out of very high mountains. It comes out of mountain crevices and freezes. After coming out, it gets mixed with stone fragments and mud etc. From there, the scrap is brought into the houses and later cleaned and made edible in various ways. Since ancient times in Gilgit-Baltistan, Shilajit has been used for diseases and weakness. Along with many properties and benefits, Shilajit is a special gift from nature and for this Shilajit is also called the sweat of the mountains. Nowadays, Shilajit capsules, tablets and powders are available in the market, but only a small amount of Silageet is used. Therefore, it is better to buy and use Shilajit in clean condition. Shilajit is becoming more expensive and rare day by day. The reason for this is the treatment of natural resources like all other natural resources by human beings and the cessation of its production due to climate change on the planet.

Shilajit Brands ? 
A brand is a label provided by the government. But what is the guarantee that the shilajit in it is genuine? The price of genuine shilajit is about 160,000 per kg, while branded shilajit is available for 60,000 per kg, which is strong evidence that it is fake. Shilajit collected from an altitude of 7-8 thousand feet in Gilgit-Baltistan of Pakistan, Hindu Kush of Afghanistan and Kashmir is 131,000 per kg in Kashmir, while the price of shilajit from Nepal and Uttarakhand is 15,000 per kg.

About of Shilajit :
The Himalayan and Karakoram mountain  ranges located in Gilgit-Baltistan, Zanskar in Kargil, Kolhai Thajawas Glacier and parts of China. in Pakistan-administered Kashmir are believed to be the special habitat of the silajit. And especially where glaciers are found and there is snow year round. It emerges miraculously from the crevices and cliffs of the high mountains of these regions. It is not yet known what it is made of, but it is rich in sweat from the mountains. One impression is that there are hot springs and sulfur. The smell is also there, it is usually found in the surrounding area. In Gilgit-Baltistan, the people who go to graze cattle on the mountains or those who are keen hunters, bring the silage to the market. And it is not possible for ordinary people to have access to raw Silajit because it requires the art of climbing dangerous and deadly mountains and special knowledge of places where Shilajit is found.

How to Grow Saffron in a Controlled Environment: A Complete Guide

Indoor Saffron Farming: Profitable, Sustainable, and Scalable

Growing saffron in a controlled environment, like a greenhouse or indoor facility, involves creating optimal conditions for the plant's growth and flowering. This includes controlling temperature, humidity, lighting, and nutrient availability, allowing for saffron cultivation in areas where it might not traditionally thrive. 

More detailed look at the key aspects of controlled environment saffron cultivation:

Temperature:

Saffron requires a cold period for flower development, typically around 5-15°C (41-59°F) during the dormant phase, followed by a gradual increase to 15-20°C (59-68°F) for flowering.

Humidity:
Moderate humidity, around 50-70% during vegetative growth and 40-60% during flowering, is crucial to prevent mold and ensure healthy growth.

CO2:
Elevated CO2 levels (400-600 ppm) can enhance photosynthesis and growth, potentially leading to higher yields.

Lighting:
Saffron is photoperiod-sensitive, requiring 12-14 hours of indirect light per day during the vegetative phase.

Ventilation:
Proper ventilation is essential to prevent the buildup of excess CO2 and other gases, while maintaining consistent but not overly strong airflow. 

2. Hydroponics and Aeroponics:
Nutrient Solution:
Saffron corms can be grown in a hydroponic system, where they absorb nutrients from a water-based solution. 

Aeroponics:
Another method involves growing saffron using aeroponics, where plants are suspended in the air and their roots are misted with nutrient-rich water. 

Nutrient Management:
The nutrient solution needs to be carefully formulated to meet the plant's specific needs, including essential minerals like nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and micronutrients. 

3. Advantages of Controlled Environment Cultivation:
Year-round Production:

Controlled environments allow for saffron cultivation regardless of the season or climate. 
Increased Yields:

By optimizing environmental conditions, it's possible to achieve higher saffron yields compared to traditional farming methods. 

Reduced Water Usage:
Hydroponics and aeroponics systems can use significantly less water than traditional soil-based cultivation. 

Space Efficiency:
Vertical farming systems can maximize space utilization, allowing for more saffron production in a smaller area. 

Protection from Pests and Diseases:
Controlled environments offer protection from pests and diseases, minimizing the risk of crop loss. 

4. Challenges:
High Initial Investment:

Setting up a controlled environment saffron cultivation facility can be costly.

Energy Consumption:
Maintaining optimal environmental conditions requires energy, which can impact the overall cost of production.

Expertise Required:
Successful saffron cultivation in a controlled environment requires specialized knowledge and experience.
