Introducing  pPods™

The pPod™ is the perfect enclosure for growing a wide variety of herbs and vegetables in any location, especially where plants can be damaged by wind, storms, pests, or freezing.

The pPod is a versatile growing enclosure with two flexible front sliding access panels - no swinging doors or lids. Open the top as seasonal plants get tall and to allow more sun or high temperature relief. Open the bottom to access lower plants, planters & irrigation.

The Standard pPod™ is 24 inches wide x 24 inches deep at the base x 32 inches high at the back -
large enough for 4 commercial 1020 trays.

This low-profile aerodynamic design withstands high winds and storms on balconies and roof tops and the double-wall plastic panels provide excellent insulation and diffuse sunlight to help provide a more uniform growing environment.

pPods can be assembled easily in minutes. Disassembly is just as easy, making pPods portable and easy to store. The target retail pricepoint for a single Standard pPod is $180.

Attach multiple pPods side-by side with no walls between each pPod segment to economically create larger Expanded pPod enclosures. pPods can also be attached back-to-back to double the size of a single pPod enclosure. This configuration is very stable in potentially windy locations such as rooftops and is highly recommended for Alta pPods located away from a wall.

By adding expander units, there is no limit to the number of pods that can be added on to a row of Expanded pPods.

As well as allowing more plants to be grown in a pPod environment, expanding pPods provides more room for larger plants to spread out. The greater volume also helps to keep all the enclosed plants warmer during cold weather.

Also in development is the Alta pPod - a 60 inch high pPod with a larger base designed to accommodate larger plants such as tomatoes, dill, and cannabis.

pPods will soon be available with an optional heated irrigation system for year-round growing and as a foundation for hydroponic systems. The irrigation system circulates water at 78 degrees F through the tray beneath the plants for even temperature control and comes with a diversion valve that switches the circulating water to a drip watering system for greater irrigation control and convenience. This system is designed to keep a fully exposed Standard pPod from freezing with outdoor temperatures as low as 0 degrees F.

Grow light options will also be available, including top mounted high intensity lights and mounting along the curved frame for side lighting.

An automatic front panel positioner is being developed to make sure pPod segments are properly vented in hot weather and closed when temperatures drop.
