Increase Your ROI by Investing in Automated Garden Technology

Home / Increase Your ROI by Investing in Automated Garden Technology

Automation is the process of replacing human (or animal) power with machine power. Designed to increase the productivity, efficiency and profitability of manufacturing, automation has been widely adopted since the industrial revolution and has given rise to technologies that enhance transportation, communication and information systems. Even in our own industry, automated technology has had a major impact on how we tend the garden  – the thermostat, for instance, has quickly become an indispensable piece of the indoor garden. Without it, growers would have little control over day and night time temperature.

However, now that our industry has begun to radically progress, automation has moved beyond simple temperature control. In fact, all aspects of the garden have the potential for automation. Want to learn more about increasing your ROI in the garden? Let’s take a look at some of the industry’s most popular automation equipment. 

TrolMaster Environmental Control Systems

TrolMaster manufactures the industry’s best environmental control systems. The Hydro-X (HSC-1), for example, is a complete, professional-grade environmental system that allows growers to customize every environmental aspect of the garden. The Hydro-X can do it all – with over 12 modules available to control HVAC systems, mini-split AC’s, dehumidifiers, humidifiers, CO2, irrigation pumps and lighting, TrolMaster made sure that no part of the garden would be excluded from automation. However, the most powerful feature of the HSC-1 is the device’s ability to monitor your garden in real-time. Just connect to TrolMaster’s smartphone app to access data and control your garden from a distance. 

If you’re looking to bring your garden into the future, consider the TrolMaster Hydro-X Pro Control System (HCS-2). The Hydro-X Pro builds on all the great features found in the Hydro-X by introducing a 10″ touch screen and web-based software. Expand your automation by attaching up to 50 sensors and up to 50 separate control modules to a single Hydro-X Pro.

LightRail Light Movers

LightRails are light movers that increase light penetration by essentially doubling the coverage produced by a single fixture. Not only will using a LightRail decrease energy consumption and heat in the garden but there are also some major photosynthetic benefits. As the manufacturers of LightRail argue, moving your lights allows for more intense light coverage in low-light sections of the garden, reduces hot spots and helps more leaves absorb more light energy. LightRail has a wide range of products, including variable speed motors, rails, accessories and replacement repair kits. 

AutoPot Watering Systems

AutoPot Watering Systems combines the best of both hydroponic and traditional gardening techniques into a simple, easy to install, self-watering system. Many advantages, not to mention a reduced workload, come with automating your garden with an AutoPot watering system. As opposed to more traditional methods of gardening, there are amazing benefits to expect from switching to a small or large AutoPot system, including standardized self-watering technology, enhanced control and increased savings on water, liquid nutrients and electricity.  

Dosatron Dosing Technology

Dosatron water-powered, non-electric chemical injectors are the easiest, most reliable way to accurately inject chemicals into water lines. Dosing injectors work using volumetric proportioning, ensuring that the chemical mixture remains the same regardless of variations in pressure and flow. At scale, dosing technology is essential. Not only can growers expect to save time by avoiding mixing, measuring and buffering chemicals, but they can also anticipate cleaner, more consistent results. Plants love a consistent feeding schedule. That’s why large-scale operators have chosen to opt for automated garden technology that allows them to fully stabilize unique fertilizer recipes. 

CenturionPro Trimming Solutions

Growers have the most to gain by automating a harvest. While the benefits of hand-trimming cannabis are clear, it is an expensive and time-consuming task. That’s why more producers than ever are automating harvests with CenturionPro trimming solutions. Adopting automated solutions for automation’s sake, without first identifying how they improve operations, will result in expenses that fail to enhance your grow. However, strategically identifying where costs can be saved and implementing specialist solutions improves both quantity and quality. This enables growers to attract new cannabis audiences now, with the capacity and consistency to satisfy and retain these customers in the future. This is just one example of why large-scale operators have chosen to rely on CenturionPro for all their trimming needs.

Futurola KnockBox Rolling Machine 

Once your product is harvested, there is one automated device that will continue to add value to your crop – Futurola’s KnockBox. Having the ability to fill and pack 300 pre-rolled cones in 90 seconds, the Futurola KnockBox is the ideal solution for producers and distributors looking to standardize a value-added product. With customizable add-ons like filling kits and variable cone sizes, Futurola promises a completely consistent and standardized dutch cone – every single time. 

From lighting systems to harvesting equipment, GreenPlanet Wholesale has automated garden technology that will help increase the productivity and profitability of your operation.
