GroLab PRO - Combo Kit (Complete Set)
NOTE! All GroLab products have a longer delivery time!
GROW CONTROLLER AUTOMATION SYSTEM | Starter kit + SoilBot + TankBot
GroLab PRO Kit is the most complete automation kit available. Fully controls and automates climate, lighting, irrigation, pH correction, nutrient dosing and all tasks related to tank management.
This kit provides the necessary tools to create security systems to react to any problems and/or indicate these problems in time.
What do I get with a GroLab PRO Kit?
The GroLab PRO kit comes with:
Starter Kit | GroNode | PowerBot | |||
SoilBot | |||||
TankBot |
It also includes a USB pen that contains the GroLab-software, instruction manuals and video tutorials.
GroLab Software is always under development. When a newer version is available, it will be updated automatically. The same happens for all included modules, this means that your GroLab PRO Kit will have access to all the improvements the GroLab development team will be making in the near future. | |
One GroNode can support up to 4 PowerBots, 4 TankBots, 4 SoilBots and 4 UserBots. You are free to divide them among 4 different rooms with two different grows each. Whenever you need a new grow, clone or bloom room, you can simply expand your GroLab system by adding the desired additional modules. |
What does the GroLab PRO Kit control? - Sample configuration
The GroLab PRO kit gives you precise control over your lights, and allows you to configure the growing days from 18h/6hto 12h/12h with one click.
The temperature and humidity probe allows you to control ventilation, reducing the consumption of this device and optimizing the climate in your grow room.
Connecting two water pumps to the PowerBot allows you to control irrigation. With the GroLab software, schedules can be created to feed each culture type with extreme precision.
Thanks to the SoilBot, you can control the substrate (both soil and hydroponics), constantly monitor it and make any desired correction. For example, you can set an alarm that activates timed drip irrigation when soil moisture levels drop to a minimum value, or even use a device to heat or cool the soil based on the SoilBot's temperature sensor. In hydroponics, you can use the substrate's moisture sensor to alert you if the bed becomes too dry, which means a pump could be broken.
TankBot ensures the perfect health of the nutrient solution, automatically adjusting the pH and delivering the right amount of nutrients with each refill. It can even refill a full tank on its own. Thanks to its ability to control solenoids, you can use TankBot as a creator of irrigation paths, where a single water pump feeds different crops at different times.
TankBot is also a powerful security tool because you can read any universal switch sensor, such as smoke or motion detectors. This allows you, for example, to lock down your entire room or system, and even send you an e-mail when, someone gets too close, or smoke is detected. All these procedures and options are fully customizable!
In this configuration there is still one output available in the TankBot. You are free to use it for any device you see fit, from a solenoid to a metering pump, or a power relay that controls lights, fans, etc.
GroLab offers data logging and data storage, these features ensure that all sensor/device information is collected and stored over time! Thanks to this and the data visualization functions, it is possible to do a detailed analysis of the life cycle of your plants, so you can maximize their growth and efficiency!
This is a schematic designed to show some of the capabilities of the GroLab™ Pro Kit, but you can rearrange the devices, or even replace them, with any other device you find useful, such as lamps, foggers, fans, heaters, dehumidifiers, dosing pumps, relays, etc.
Since a single GroNode supports up to 4 modules of each type, if at any time you need to add more sensors or devices (for example, to control another grow room), simply add the desired additional modules to expand your control.
GroLab Software
The GroLab Software is the control cabin of the system. The main purpose of this software is to allow you to fully configure the entire system, by providing all the tools to customize the settings of modules and devices to the functionalities of each growing system.
Track the progress of your crop(s) through IP cameras and a variety of data inputs, with graphs, historical data and trends. All sensors/actuators data can be easily exported to a friendly file for external in-depth analysis. Using a third-party device capable of logging data in the cloud, the GroLab system can periodically upload data to that device. Thanks to the remote control feature, this easy-to-use software allows you to continue to control and monitor your grow(er) as if you were there.
