The success of CEA depends on precision, yet one of the most critical elements remains complex and costly for many growers: nutrient dosing. Manually calculating and adjusting nutrient recipes for high-value crops, especially within intricate closed-loop hydroponic systems, leads to inefficiencies, wasted resources, and yields that fall short of their potential.
Growers are increasingly focused on maximizing return on investment, but current dosing methods often involve guesswork or time-consuming manual calculations. Farmers and researchers need an integrated solution that shifts nutrient management from reactive to proactive, while keeping costs under control.
This is where GrowDose comes in. It is a dedicated software platform built to eliminate complexity and boost profitability in nutrient delivery. GrowDose automatically produces accurate dosing calculations that generate the exact recipe and quantity required for each nutrient, removing manual error and ensuring crops get what they need for optimal growth. Its cost-optimization algorithm identifies the most economical combination of fertilizers to meet a target recipe, helping reduce operational spending. The platform also integrates with existing sensors and automatic fertigation systems to support real-time adjustments and minimize labor.
