A method for receiving, over a computer network, from a plurality of devices installed in an indoor farming module, a plurality of data associated with at least one of: a water level in a watering reservoir, a pH level in an irrigation system, a temperature in the indoor farming module, a humidity level in the indoor farming module, a carbon dioxide level in the indoor farming module, and a power relay status, filtering the received plurality of data on a remote computer based on a filtering field, displaying, in a plurality of panels, the filtered data received from the plurality of devices; configuring a plurality of schedules for the plurality of devices, wherein the plurality of schedules comprise at least one of an irrigation schedule, a lighting schedule, and a data collection schedule, and sending the configured plurality of schedules to one or more controllers of the indoor farming module.

Techniques for collecting information about plants on a per plant or near per plant basis and promulgating remedial courses of action are disclosed. A horticultural operation receives plant information such as a plurality of images corresponding to a plurality of plants respectively, wherein at least one of the received plurality of images is an image of interest containing an identified plant, an identified artifact, and is associated with an identified issue of the identified plant corresponding to the identified artifact. The image of interest is displayed to workers in the horticultural operation along with the identified issue of the identified plant corresponding to the identified artifact.

An approach for controlling light exposure of a light sensitive object is described. Aspects of this approach involve using a first set of radiation sources to irradiate the object with visible radiation and infrared radiation. A second set of radiation sources spot irradiate the object in a set of locations with a target ultraviolet radiation having a range of wavelengths. Radiation sensors detect radiation reflected from the object and environment condition sensors detect conditions of the environment in which the object is located during irradiation. A controller controls irradiation of the light sensitive object by the first and second set of radiation sources according to predetermined optimal irradiation settings specified for various environmental conditions. In addition, the controller adjusts irradiation settings of the first and second set of radiation sources as a function of measurements obtained by the various sensors.

Described herein are methods, compositions, products, and processes that utilize bioceramics in traditional agricultural and hydroponic systems. The bioceramics are utilized in powder form, as films, as aerosols, as water based treatment systems, or in solid forms. The methods and bioceramic compositions described here are also used for growing a Cannabis plant. One or more cannabinoids within the plant can be used in therapeutic compositions for the treatment of glaucoma, AIDS wasting syndrome, neuropathic pain, cancer, multiple sclerosis, chemotherapy-induced nausea, and certain seizure disorders.
