The Commercial Advantage

Every square foot matters. Our system can house up to 40 plants in the same 2' × 2' spacing traditionally used for one plant—then scale across your greenhouse footprint.

The Math is Undeniable

More plants per square foot

One plant per 2' × 2' (~0.25 plants/sq ft) vs up to 40 plants in the same footprint; yielding up to 3,900% more plants per square foot.

Going Vertical vs. Traditional Greenhouse

Same agronomic story, different physics: more growing positions per patch of floor, less water per pound, and harvest timing that can beat soil when the system is tuned.

Metric	Traditional bench spacing	Forge ~5' vertical tower
Yield velocity vs soil	Baseline (soil or bench)	Up to 30% faster
Planting density (same 2' × 2')	1 plant (~0.25 per sq ft)	Up to 40 plants (~10 per sq ft on the same 2' × 2' footprint)—up to 3,900% more plants per sq ft
Floor space per plant (that plot)	~4 sq ft per plant	~0.1 sq ft per plant — up to 97.5% less floor space per plant
Water vs traditional farming	Baseline	Up to 90% less
Per-plant harvest weight vs soil	Comparable per plant with appropriately sized grow buckets for the crop (hydroponic vs soil). *15 cup (72°) and multi-gallon (180°) buckets are coming soon. Our standard grow buckets (36°) are 8" tall × 5" deep × 4" wide supporting approximately 4-6 cups of media.

Fleet Management Powered by AI

Smithy, your personal Plant Coach AI, isn't just a timer. The Smithy management platform gives you a commercial-grade dashboard designed for greenhouse operators managing dozens of towers.

At a Glance Reporting
See historical trends, chart your chemistry, and let AI remove the guesswork across your fleet of hydroponic systems.
Automated Precision
AI adapts to your plants needs, adjusts watering or lighting schedules, helps diagnose any issues you may encounter, and makes suggestions based on reservoir chemistry and your crops needs.
Predictive Alerts
Get notified before problems happen. Early detection of disease, nutrient imbalances, or equipment issues.
Yield Analytics
Detailed data on every crop cycle. Optimize varieties, timing, and techniques based on real harvest data.
