In a previous article about weight measurement, we already explained a method for weight measurement. We do this using sensors that measure the plant's ascending stem. We also have more robust sensors that can measure a section of the crop thread. This way, you can easily measure 16 to 32 plants.

But you can also use wireless scales to measure weight. We initially developed these for measuring potted plants like hydrangeas. By placing several pots with drip irrigation on a scale, you get a good insight into the watering and subsequent evaporation per watering section.

Instead of walking around with hand scales every day and recording the weight, you now get real-time, 24-hour information about the weight trend. Especially with the long, hot summers we're increasingly seeing, this data is invaluable because it allows you to see exactly when extra watering is necessary.

Nowadays, the scale is also used to measure the substrate mats of tomato plants, among other things. Here, watering is naturally done in smaller doses, and thanks to the scale's accuracy, we can precisely measure watering and drainage. This also allows us to determine the plant's water uptake.

With smart algorithms, we can convert all this data into valuable information for you as a grower. We collaborate with various parties in the greenhouse horticulture industry to collaborate and make the information as valuable as possible. We do this by combining data insights with growers' years of experience to continuously optimize.

This way, we give you, as a grower, the tools to translate accurate data into concrete actions that will help you get the most out of your greenhouse.
