Automating the growing process of cannabis ruderalis involves a variety of strategies. The most common methods include using sensors and automated controllers to monitor environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, CO2 levels and nutrient levels. Sensors are placed in various locations throughout the grow space which allow for precise control over the environment. Automated controllers can be programmed to turn off/on fans or lights, adjust watering systems and regulate nutrient levels depending on the specific needs of each strain. Growers can use hydroponic systems that automate irrigation cycles and provide an efficient way to feed plants with nutrients directly into their root zone. Utilizing greenhouses or other enclosures can help create ideal environments by controlling external factors such as wind speed and rainfall amount. With these strategies in place, growers are able to maximize yields while minimizing labor costs associated with manual tending practices.
