Cannabis Joins the Internet of Things. Now it’s Easy for Everyone to Grow
Boulder, Colorado (PRWEB) June 15, 2016 -- Today, after three years in development, gro.io launched the world’s first app- controlled, intelligent hydroponic system.
gro.io’s automated growing platform combines a powerful computer with sensors, valves and pumps, making it easy for everyone to grow hydroponically.
“While both attitudes and laws around marijuana are changing rapidly, most people still view growing their own as a difficult and time-consuming process,” said gro.io Founder Doug Slemmer. “We’re going to change this. Our smart, fully integrated hydroponic system minimizes the time, complexity and knowledge required to grow just about anything.”
The gro.io platform is:
Simple: A mobile app makes it easy—even for novice users— to have great grows.
Smart: 10+ sensors monitor everything from pH and nutrients to temperature and leaks.
Automated: Pumps, valves and algorithms ensure plants have optimal growing conditions.
Connected: Users receive text and email alerts keeping them connected to their grows.
Pre-sales opened today via the gro.io website. Prices for the gro.io hub start at $999.00.
gro.io’s team is based in Boulder, Colorado. Founder Doug Slemmer first attempted to grow cannabis to help his wife overcome the nausea she was suffering as a result of cancer treatments. His frustration with current solutions and passion for technology led him to develop a smarter and more connected platform for growers.
