Greenhouse and Agriculture Monitoring

Pre-harvest climate control

EDGE Essential monitors ambient temperature and humidity at canopy level, with a built-in display and automatic VPD calculation in LF Cloud, so you can manage transpiration across greenhouse zones, detect mold and fungal risk early from temperature and humidity trends, and verify ventilation and HVAC performance in grow rooms. EDGE Air adds CO₂ sensing with instant alarms to hold the CO₂ level that vigorous growth needs.

Post-harvest protection

EDGE Thermo reads two external temperature probes from -55 °C to +125 °C (-67 °F to +257 °F) plus ambient temperature and humidity, for cold rooms, coolers and drying rooms after harvest. It raises alarms on cooling or ventilation failures and when facility power is disrupted, and comes in WiFi and cellular versions for remote barns, silos and storage facilities.

Irrigation, soil moisture and water use

The Agrimax soil sensor measures soil moisture content (MC), by capacitance, and soil temperature with a design that resists fertilizers and salts, so you irrigate only when crops need it and spot drought stress early. BLOCK Fluid Pressure sensors track pump performance and confirm drip-line pressure at the end of runs, and the Cellular Water Meter reports irrigation water use once a day with leak alarms.

Light for yield

The BLOCK Light Node tracks light intensity in lux and leaf temperature for yield modelling, verifies artificial lighting and shade-curtain performance, shows differences in light distribution across growing zones and supports supplemental lighting triggers. BLOCK Light is being retired, and there is no replacement yet.

One platform for the whole operation

Devices connect directly to WiFi or cellular with no gateway, and LF Cloud manages devices, data, alarms, users, reports and permissions in one app. Parameters monitored include temperature, relative humidity, equilibrium moisture content (EMC), dew point, soil moisture, CO₂, light intensity and barometric pressure, with VPD, mold risk, trends and automated reports built in, and data you can share securely with teams, partners or auditors.

Frequently asked questions

Can LoggerFlex monitor greenhouses and indoor farms without WiFi coverage?

Yes. Cellular models have built-in global cellular in addition to no-gateway WiFi, so they work in greenhouses, fields, and barns where WiFi is weak or absent. There is no gateway to install, which simplifies coverage across large or remote growing areas.

What conditions can it track for crops and livestock?

LoggerFlex tracks temperature and humidity and, through its analog and digital inputs, can read additional sensors for conditions that matter to growers and producers. Alarms warn you of frost, heat, or humidity problems before they damage crops or stress livestock.

How long will sensors run in the field before needing service?

The patented battery architecture (US Patent US11455877B2) on 4 AA batteries is rated for up to 3 years on WiFi models and up to 2 years on cellular, so devices can run through full seasons without frequent battery changes. Reporting frequency and temperature extremes affect runtime, but the design targets long, low-maintenance field deployments.

Can I monitor multiple sites and zones from one place?

Yes. All devices report into a single LF Cloud account, so you can monitor multiple greenhouses, storage buildings, or farm sites and set per-zone alarm thresholds from one dashboard.
