The 90 Gallon tank supplies nutrient-rich water to the cultivation Area. UrbanPONICS app monitors and manages the water’s nutrient concentration and pH balance.
GUTTERS:
Recirculating gutters drains collecting water from the bottom most row of Dual Pore modules drains water back into the Cultivation Tank, where pH and nutrients are automatically rebalanced and water is recycled.
STREAMLINED & ACCESSIBLE NUTRIENT TANK DESIGN:
The Seedling and Nutrient Tanks are integrated into Nursery Station vertically
to maximize the length of the worktop and seedling troughs.
Easy push-to-open given the grower immediate access to the tank’s interior for refilling,
cleaning and troubleshooting.
BUILT-IN CAMERAS:
See the seedlings, saplings and maturing plants with multiple cameras which provide a 140 deg. Birds-eye view, visible at all times in the UrbanPONICS app.
BUILT-IN SOUND SYSTEM :
At the end of the day, farm work should be energizing and fun. Built-in speakers bring music, podcasts, and radio into the farm for the grower and plants to enjoy.
LED Illumination:
Multiple indirect LED bar provides additional light for the worktable, perfect for intricate work, like seeding, sapling and plant transfers.
The brightness is adjustable using a light-dimming knob.
NUTRIENT-RICH: Careful sensing and dosing ensures all plants receive a full spectrum of balanced nutrients, including key macro and micro nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, sulphur, magnesium and more
CRISP & FLAVORFUL: The UrbanPONICS GrowPOD gives plants consistent access to water and nutrients until the very moment they are harvested. Since most crops are consumed just hours after harvest, there is no time for nutrient degradation or wilting, resulting in superior quality greens.
LONG LASTING: Greens harvested from the farm barely spend any time in transit, meaning that – even if not consumed immediately- they are fresh enough to last a minimum of two weeks in refrigerator.
