MULTIGROW
MULTIGROW
MultiGrow is an all-in-one, multiple grow area controller. It runs up to 8 different growing zones, managing climates, reservoirs and irrigation schedules.
Ease of use. Sophisticated control. Effortlessly manage delivery of nutrients and control consistency of humidity, temperature, and light. Our system lets you control multiple greenhouse, tunnel house, hoop houses, indoor growing rooms’ climate compartments with fertigation and/or hydroponic dosing of multiple tanks. Monitor root and aerial environments and receive alerts via rule-based systems for alarm conditions.
The MultiGrow controller is a modular system that can control the climate of up to 8 growing zones or warehouse compartments in addition to managing other functions, such as fertigation, hydroponic dosing and environment monitoring.
The MultiGrow is fully customizable and configured to your needs. The products are time-tested and proven in greenhouses, protected cropping, warehouses, and grow rooms. Manage climate control in multiple growing zones effortlessly with the MultiGrow environment controller.

Outputs & Inputs
Output modules
Our modules have 10 relays which can be used to directly drive devices such as dosing pumps and switch on larger equipment. Can be set up for automation but also has full hardware override – meaning that you can always take control.
Inputs
RS485 to communicate with controller
Power input 12/24V (AC or DC)
Outputs
10A relays
Output voltage matches input voltage
Limitations
The MultiGrow can connect to up to 32 of any particular module simultaneously. 32 output modules would provide up to 320 individual outputs, and you could also connect 32 nutrient probes and 32 environment sensors at the same time. The mix of these modules depends on how you grow, what you grow, and what other equipment you have. Your Autogrow dealer will help guide you through these decisions
One MultiGrow can control up to 8 compartments
The modules are all connected via an RS485 daisy chain. The maximum total length of this chain is 1.6km. Expansion options are available beyond that.
