CO2 GRO Inc. announced that the second phase of a CO2 Delivery Solutions system has been installed for a grape tomato Technology Trial in The Cucumber Man's 522,000 square foot Alberta greenhouse. Part two of this larger Trial is now operational on grape tomatoes with part one being announced as operational on April 28, 2022 for long English cucumbers. The Trial's goals are to increase both grape tomato and long cucumber fruit yield, reduce the spread of pathogens such as powdery mildew, which is often problematic for tomato as well as cucumber growers, and reduce the overall cost per unit of production thereby increasing overall margins.

According to Greenhouse Canada, as of 2019, Alberta's greenhouse crops industry was estimated to be 404 acres, 164 hectares, or 17.62 million square feet. Vegetables accounted for about 46% of the total greenhouse area, or 187 acres, followed by floriculture at 42%, or 170 acres, and tree seedlings at 12%, or 48 acres.
