It´s that simple to enjoy a part of nature inside the house.
Origin
Yash Vyas, the Founder of Agro2o, had the inspiration while working in Dubai, where the idea of a smart garden connected well to the kind of terrain Dubai has. He figured out the concept of Hydroponics technology and wanted to align that in a way that plants of all kinds could grow easily. With a power team, Vyas worked on the minutest of details to not only make a product but also make sure it reached audiences.
A Combo of Nature & Tech
Agro2o has combined both nature and advanced technology in harmony to achieve the convenience of growing plants without worrying about open space, sun light, a busy schedule, or not having a green thumb.
The agtech startup is aiming to make Hydroponics accessible and affordable to everyone, whether it is an individual or an institution or commercial farming. In a normal garden setting, it is necessary to have a garden space in order to grow plants, but with Agro2o Smart Garden, users only have to decide where to put the system.
A Faster Garden
When we grow a plant in our home it takes a lot of time to grow, but with Agro2o, plant growth rate is around 4-5 times faster, because of their soil less technology. Also, plants that require sunlight can also be grown indoors.
Agro can grow 12 plants at the same time by using intelligent nutrient dosing, automated watering, Spectrum-adapted LEDs (LED that grow lights have a spectrum adapted to photosynthesis). Full-spectrum LED grow lights are a good choice because they give all the light needed without overheating concerns, and with Agro´s newly made technology, these plants can be easily controlled by smartphones.
