An innovative planting system developed by a company based in Chengdu, Sichuan province,enables urban households to grow fresh produce at home. The smart planting pod employs soilless cultivation technology and AI to automatically manage plants’ water, light, nutrient supply, and overall growth conditions.

The 1.5-meter-tall pod consists of a planting zone, light column, and water tank, which work together to provide plants with simulated sunlight, irrigation, and nutrients. Despite occupying just 0.25 square meters of floor space, the device can grow up to 30 different plants simultaneously, Compared to traditional farming methods, the hydroponic system increases yield by over twentyfold while reducing pests and diseases and eliminating pesticide residues.

To date, nearly 200 units of the smart planting pods have been sold.
