Readings you can trust
Soil moisture accurate to ±2% without drift, plus nutrient strength (EC) and temperature, built to stay honest in salty hydro media and dry field soils alike.
Growbud · Sense · Decide · Water
Drift-free root-zone sensing, and irrigation decisions made on the farm, not in someone else's cloud. Start with one sensor and the free app, then grow into rooms, benches, and whole fields.
The problem
Timers can't react to what's happening at the roots. Plants get over- or under-watered between manual checks, whether you run a 500-acre field or a 20-zone greenhouse.
Your watering is only as good as your readings. Most probes lose accuracy in salty, heavily fertilized media, and every decision made on a bad reading is a bad decision.
Remote fields, basements, and outbuildings often have no WiFi or cell. Cloud-only systems go blind exactly where your crop is, and where automation matters most.
The loop
A closed loop that lives on your site, from probe to pump, and keeps running when the internet doesn't.
Soil moisture accurate to ±2% without drift, plus nutrient strength (EC) and temperature, built to stay honest in salty hydro media and dry field soils alike.
Growbud Edge makes watering decisions on-site. No internet? No problem: irrigation keeps running even where coverage never reaches the crop.
One system from probe to pump. Sense, decide, and move water on the same platform, or hook into the irrigation, feeding, and building gear you already own.
The hardware
Buy a single Dro or Vero, pair it with the free app, and prove the readings before you commit to a full deployment.

Intelligence
Growbud learns your crop: it predicts dry-downs before they happen, spots stress in leaf photos, and folds every reading into one clear watering call, on-site, in real time.
Knows your beds are drying down hours before they do, so watering starts on time, not after the wilt.
Photos of your crop reveal stress, deficiency, and disease before the soil numbers move, and that evidence flows straight into watering and feeding decisions.
Soil, climate, and crop photos come together into one signal you can act on. No juggling dashboards or spreadsheets.
Survey tool
A single Dro is not just a starter purchase. It's a portable survey tool for finding wet spots, dry ridges, EC buildup, and the right permanent sensor locations before you buy a full kit.
Start with one DroPlace one Dro in the field, bed, or container you want to benchmark.
Walk high, low, wet, and dry zones to compare VWC, EC, temperature, and humidity.
Use the map of readings to decide where permanent sensors and controls belong.
Applications
Free app
Pair a single sensor, review live readings, and graduate into gateways and controllers when the site needs continuous monitoring or automation.
Available on mobile & web
Monitor your sensors, configure alerts, and analyze trends from any device. Free for all Growbud sensor owners.
