GrowOff in education
Growing food is a natural gateway to understanding more about nature and learning through doing.
“With the GrowOff we have access to locally produced greens that haven’t been transported around the globe. And who doesn’t get inspired by having greenhouse where you can pick whatever you like?“

How it works
1. Insert cassette
The GrowOff cassettes are pre-seeded and covered with a film that helps the seeds to germinate. When the cassette is inserted, The GrowOff recognizes the crop and starts watering
2. Peel off film
When the seeds have sprouted after 3-5 days, it’s time to peel off the film. We’ll give you instructions on how and when in our app and through a light on the GrowOff.
3. Harvest your greens
After 20-50 days depending on crop type it’s time for the best part: Harvesting!
