Cannabis Yield & Revenue Calculator:  Improving Cannabis CEA Profitability with Crop Steering & Microclimate Mapping

The difference between barely getting by and making enough revenue to scale your cannabis cultivation business can be a fine line. While sales & marketing are a challenge in any industry, supplying high quality potent cannabis consistently at scale poses an equal challenge for most commercial cannabis brands. Many people think the cannabis industry prints...

The Future of Crop Steering: Real-Time Substrate Maps for Enhanced Crop Steering & CEA Diagnostics

Understanding the importance of substrate conditions across cultivars and cultivation zones is crucial for commercial greenhouse and indoor cannabis growers seeking to enhance crop steering and optimize their Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) strategies. Microclimate mapping helps decipher variations in Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) and transpiration rates across plant canopies, but substrate mapping is equally vital...

Maximizing Crop Yields: The Key Role of Microclimate Mapping in Cannabis Cultivation

In the world of commercial cannabis cultivation, the importance of microclimate mapping cannot be overstated. Ensuring a homogeneous environment is the foundation for maintaining a consistent VPD (vapor pressure deficit), which directly influences transpiration rates, water and nutrient uptake, and ultimately, the overall health and uniformity of the plants. This significance is magnified when vertical...

Understanding VPD: The Key to Optimizing Your Cultivation Environment

As a cannabis cultivator, you know temperature and humidity are critical environmental factors in your grow room. But did you know it’s the relationship between temperature and humidity, known as VPD (vapor pressure deficit), that truly determines plant growth and health? By mastering VPD, you can optimize your entire cannabis cultivation operation for faster growth,...

Seizing Opportunities in a Challenging Market: The Grownetics Approach to Hyper-Efficient Cultivation

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. - Winston Churchill In the ever-evolving world of Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA), the limitations of conventional systems are becoming increasingly evident. Today’s market reveals the real challenges faced by CEA systems deployed in the wild, where cobbled-together components fall...
