Individual lighting, watering, and airflow controls on every level mean each crop gets exactly what it needs, regardless of what's growing above or below it. Mistakes don't cascade. Harvests don't surprise you.

Turn-Key Installation & Training
Prefabricated materials ship directly to your grow site. Our team installs everything and trains your staff so your first harvest starts on the right foot.
Maximum Yield by Design
54 channels growing while 54 more are germinating means you're always harvesting at capacity. No downtime. No wasted space. Production runs on a cycle, not a guess.
Growing Support After Installation
We stay with you after the system is running. Troubleshooting, crop questions, workflow improvements — you're not on your own once we leave the grow site.

Benefits
Produces serious output in a small footprint
A 6ft × 8ft footprint generates 110 lbs per harvest and over 5,200 lbs per year. The vertical design maximizes every square foot of your grow space.
Automation cuts daily labor to a minimum
Watering, lighting, and airflow run on set schedules at every level. You focus on seeding, harvesting, and selling — not managing equipment.
Food safety built in, not bolted on
Fans, reservoir, grow channels, and drain channels are all designed for easy removal and regular cleaning. Commercial compliance isn't an afterthought.
Consistent harvests, reliable income
The same conditions every cycle means crops finish evenly and on time. Less crop loss, fewer surprises, and the confidence to take on wholesale commitments.
Reconfigurable as your operation grows
Simple, intuitive design means the rack can be disassembled and reconfigured if your grow location changes or your production layout evolves.
Who It's For
Commercial growers scaling up from a pilot system
You've proven the process on a StarterKit or AutoKit and demand has outgrown your current setup. The CPR is the system that takes your operation to full commercial volume.
Wholesale and restaurant suppliers
Your buyers need consistent weekly volumes they can rely on. The CPR's automated production cycle and high output capacity make those commitments possible.
Farms building a dedicated grow facility
If you're setting up a purpose-built space for microgreen production, the CPR is engineered for it — prefabricated for fast installation and designed to be the anchor of your operation.
Educational and institutional programs
Universities, culinary schools, and agricultural programs looking for a real commercial-scale system to teach students production at volume.

The AutoKit Pro is a standalone, pre-configured unit built for growers ready to run a serious operation independently. The Commercial Production Rack is a step beyond — a custom-configured, professionally installed system built for a dedicated grow facility. It holds 54 active + 54 germination channels simultaneously, produces ~110 lbs per harvest, and includes on-site installation and ongoing support. It's built for full commercial volume, not just consistent production.
High-yield, fast-cycling varieties work best for maximizing production. Radish (3.6 lbs/channel, 8–9 days), Mustard and Cabbage (2.3 lbs, 9–12 days), and Broccoli (2.2 lbs, 9–10 days) are strong performers. A mixed rotation of fast and slightly longer-cycle crops helps you maintain a consistent harvest schedule throughout the week.
The CPR uses approximately 60 kWh of electricity per day across all levels. Hydroponic operating expenses run approximately $1,500 per year. Exact water usage varies by crop variety and cycle schedule — contact us and we can provide a detailed utilities estimate based on your planned production mix.
Based on median harvest yields across common microgreen varieties, the CPR produces approximately 5,280 lbs of microgreens per year. Individual results will vary based on variety selection, harvest frequency, and crop rotation schedule.
The CPR is built to order and installed on-site. Lead times vary based on configuration and scheduling — contact us to begin your quote and we'll provide a timeline based on your requirements. All materials are prefabricated and shipped to your grow site, and our team handles professional installation and staff training.
Yes. The CPR includes a warranty on components and ongoing growing support after installation for troubleshooting. Contact us for full warranty details as part of your custom quote.
At 5,280 lbs per year, revenue potential varies based on your market and pricing. Wholesale microgreens typically sell for $8–$20/lb depending on variety and buyer. At $10/lb wholesale, that's a potential of $52,800+ annually from a single rack. Premium varieties, direct-to-restaurant pricing, or farmers market sales can push that considerably higher. Contact us and we can walk through a production economics model based on your specific market.
