SprigRig System

SprigRig™

Advanced Automated Growing System

Zone-based intelligent growing with AI monitoring, astral scheduling, and modular hardware control.

In Development

Development Status: SprigRig™ is currently in active development. The features described below represent our development roadmap and planned capabilities. We're building and testing prototypes, and the system is not yet available for purchase. Check back here for progress updates.

Overview

SprigRig™ is being developed as a comprehensive zone-based intelligent growing system featuring dynamic dashboards, astral scheduling, AI-powered monitoring, and modular hardware control. Designed for home growers and commercial operations alike, this versatile platform will support soil growing, hydroponics, NFT, and aeroponics—making it suitable for everything from small-scale indoor gardens to professional cultivation facilities.

Planned Features

  • Zone-Based Management: Multiple independent grow zones with customizable dashboards based on grow method and installed hardware
  • Guardian AI: Continuous environmental monitoring with tiered alerts, plant health analysis via computer vision, nutrient deficiency and pest detection
  • Astral Scheduling: Sync lighting schedules with sunrise/sunset times for natural photoperiod simulation
  • Recipe System: Pre-built recipes for common crops with phase-based growing and automatic environmental target adjustment
  • Camera Integration: Timelapse capture, manual documentation, multi-camera support per zone with AI health analysis
  • Automated Fertigation: Industrial pH/EC probe support (4-20mA, 0-10V), peristaltic pump control, recipe-driven nutrient dosing with trend analysis
  • Environmental Control: Lighting, irrigation, HVAC, and aeration automation with environmental triggers and variable speed control
  • Modbus Sensor Hubs: Custom STM32-based sensor hubs with industrial-grade inputs for professional monitoring
  • Analytics Dashboard: Historical visualization, multi-sensor overlay charts, statistical analysis, CSV/JSON export
  • Cross-Platform App: Flutter-based interface runs on Raspberry Pi, desktop, and mobile devices

Supported Grow Methods

Soil Growing

Traditional soil-based cultivation with automated irrigation and monitoring

Hydroponics

DWC, drip, and ebb & flow systems with reservoir management and autofill

NFT Systems

Nutrient Film Technique with precise flow control and monitoring

Aeroponics

High-efficiency root misting with cycle timing and pressure control

Outdoor Gardening

Automated irrigation valves with weather-aware scheduling for outdoor beds

One Controller, Multiple Zones

SprigRig™ is designed to manage multiple growing environments from a single controller. Each zone operates independently with its own schedules, sensors, and automation rules—all accessible from one interface.

Zone 1: Propagation Tent

Indoor seedling tent with heat mat control, humidity monitoring, and grow lights on a timer

Zone 2: Backyard Greenhouse

Temperature-triggered ventilation, automated drip irrigation, and environmental logging

Zone 3: Outdoor Garden

Soil moisture-based irrigation valves for raised beds and in-ground plantings

This flexibility means you can start small with a single zone and expand as your growing operation develops—without needing additional controllers.
