What your monitoring service can include
Your proposal defines the monitoring plan, system setup and review programme. Equipment, inclusions and responsibilities are agreed before work starts.
Setup & handover
Specified equipment, installation responsibilities, commissioning checks and user guidance.
Review programme
Agreed data access, alerts, review frequency and agronomic-support responsibilities.
Agree the practical details.
Confirm these arrangements in your proposal before setup.
Equipment and existing sensors
Confirm supplied hardware, sensor quantities, placement and substrate-specific calibration or checks. Existing sensors can be considered after compatibility, condition and data access are assessed.
Installation, commissioning and handover
Identify who installs, configures and maintains each component. Agree site access, power, connectivity checks, commissioning criteria and user handover before setup.
Connectivity, readings and alerts
Agree the connection method, recording and transmission intervals, outage handling and alert recipients. Updates depend on the equipment and network; continuous observation is not guaranteed.
Platform, data and recurring costs
Confirm accounts, data access, retention, export options and ownership arrangements. Identify hardware, setup, platform subscriptions, connectivity and ongoing support charges in the proposal.
Agronomic reviews and maintenance
Agree the review frequency, reporting format, response arrangements, sensor checks and maintenance responsibilities. Interpretation is provided within the agreed support scope.
Monitoring or automated control?
This service describes monitoring and decision support. Irrigation or climate-control integration requires a separate compatibility assessment and an explicitly agreed scope.
A connected growing intelligence system
Connect substrate knowledge, selected sensors, data and agronomic interpretation around the measurements your decisions require.
- 01
Sense
Selected root-zone, climate, irrigation and plant measurements.
- 02
Connect
A compatible gateway transfers readings from the growing area.
- 03
Visualise
Review current readings, historical trends and agreed alerts.
- 04
Interpret
Assess patterns alongside crop stage, substrate and water quality.
- 05
Act & review
The grower makes changes and follows the response.
Sensor compatibility, connectivity, platform access and support are confirmed for the proposed system.
Sensor Products for Professional Growers
Choose the measurements that answer your growing question. Final models and availability are confirmed during system design.
Root-zone sensors
Water content · EC · Temperature
Moisture, electrical conductivity and temperature probes help track conditions around the roots.
Greenhouse environment
Climate · Light · CO₂
Air temperature, relative humidity, CO₂ and PAR sensors provide context for crop demand.
Plant monitoring
Leaf temperature · Stem change · Weight
Leaf-temperature, stem-diameter or plant-weight measurements can help interpret crop response.
Irrigation & drainage
Input volume · Drainage volume · Timing
Flow meters and drainage measurements help compare water supplied with water leaving the system.
Water quality
Feed solution · Drainage solution
EC, pH and, where relevant, dissolved-oxygen probes monitor selected solution characteristics.
Gateway & platform
Wireless collection · Trends · Alerts
Compatible data collection and a connected dashboard bring selected measurements together.
Sensor choice, placement and calibration depend on the substrate, crop and measurement method.
Connect what enters the system with what happens around the roots.
Root-Zone Intelligence
Track moisture, temperature and EC trends in representative growing zones. Interpret changes in the context of substrate structure and crop stage.
- Follow wetting and dry-back patterns
- Compare zones and probe positions
- Review EC using the specified sensor method
Bulk EC, pore-water EC and laboratory extract EC are different quantities. Confirm the sensor method and substrate calibration before comparing readings.
Irrigation Intelligence
Review irrigation timing, input volume and drainage alongside root-zone readings to assess how the programme matches crop demand.
- Compare water input and measured drainage
- Review timing, frequency and dry-back
- Assess feed and drainage EC together
Readings support grower decisions. Automated irrigation control is a separate, explicitly agreed scope.
Real-Time Data. Smarter Decisions.
Bring current readings, historical trends and agreed alerts into one view. Explore the illustrative patterns below.
Illustrative dashboard · synthetic data
Irrigation rises and dry-back patterns can help frame a review of timing and substrate conditions.
Sensors
Selected measurements from the growing system.
Data
Trends, observations and agreed alerts.
Interpretation
Review in crop and substrate context.
Grower decision
Use the findings to inform practical changes.
Illustrative chart only. Measured variables, calculated indicators and interpretation are distinct; update frequency, alerts and access depend on equipment and connectivity.
Coirology Agronomic Intelligence
Data becomes useful when it is interpreted in the context of your crop and growing system.
Understand the context
Review crop stage, substrate, water quality and growing conditions alongside the sensor record.
Turn patterns into questions
Identify irrigation or root-zone patterns worth investigating and agree practical adjustments.
Review the response
Follow the effect of changes at an agreed review frequency, with clear support responsibilities.
Connect monitoring with your next question.
Material investigation and designed trials can be commissioned separately when the monitoring raises a new question.
Investigate the substrate
Use SubstrateLab to investigate material properties or substrate concerns.
