Abstract

Described herein are techniques for a hybrid distributed hydroculture system. A set of growing profiles (605) is stored, wherein each growing profile (605) defines a set of growing parameters for a type (200,201,202,203,204) of plant. Data is received that is indicative of a growing profile (605) being associated with a plant growing unit in communication with the computing device. A set of growing parameters is transmitted from the growing profile (605) to the plant growing unit so that the plant growing unit can execute the growing parameters to grow a plant that is planted in the plant growing unit. Sensor data is received from the plant growing unit indicative of data from one or more sensors locally installed at the plant growing unit. The set of growing parameters is customized based on the sensor data from the plant growing unit to customize the parameters for the plant environment.
