Cannabis Cultivation Automation

A bad day in flower kills the harvest

Cannabis is unforgiving in flower — wrong VPD pushes mildew, wrong RH at week 6 invites bud rot, a stuck dehumidifier on a weekend ruins a month of work.

Per-stage targets, per-room differences

Clone, veg, flower, dry, and cure each have distinct T/RH/CO₂/VPD profiles. Hand-tuning every room every phase is hours per week — and assumes the operator notices the drift.

No remote visibility for multi-room facilities

A typical commercial grow has 2–10+ flower rooms plus a veg room, dry room, and cure rooms. No single dashboard means no one sees the slow drift until product quality suffers.

State cannabis programs expect records

METRC, BioTrack, and other state seed-to-sale systems track plants. Environmental records — temperature, humidity, light cycles — are increasingly required at inspection. Paper logs are an audit risk.

On-edge PID + VPD control per room

Pi-side PID loops drive AC, dehumidifier, humidifier, exhaust, and CO₂ valves for each room independently. VPD is computed locally so targets follow the canopy state, not just the wall thermostat.

Multi-room dashboard with stage-aware targets

See every room — veg, every flower room, dry, cure — on one screen. Sparkline trends per signal. Recipe automation drives the stage transitions (veg → early flower → late flower → dry → cure).

Threshold alerts before product is at risk

Configure narrow alert windows per room per stage. Anomaly detection on rolling baseline catches failing AC compressors, stuck dehumidifiers, and CO₂ regulator drift before they hit the canopy.

Audit-grade environmental records

Every reading logged with a tamper-resistant timestamp. Per-room daily, weekly, and full-cycle PDF reports for inspections, internal QA, and lot-level traceability.
