Solar Powered Smart Vertical Microgreens Growing System

🌱 Complete Indoor Farming Solution

The Smart Vertical Microgreens Growing System is a compact, sensor‑driven indoor farming solution designed to enable high‑quality, pesticide‑free microgreens production in a fully controlled environment. Unlike conventional systems that focus only on lighting or hydroponics, this system integrates production, environmental control, automation, and performance evaluation into a single unit – making it suitable for urban farming, research, and commercial applications. This approach addresses a key gap identified across multiple research studies, where no single system integrates growth, control, and post‑harvest considerations together.
