Grow up, not out.
Stacked tiers under spectrum-tuned light turn a small footprint into a year-round farm. Configure a rack in 3D and read its yield, water, energy, and unit economics — live.

Stacked systems can produce many times more per m² than open field — leafy greens commonly cited at up to ~10×, with controlled-environment facilities reporting on the order of ~11.7 kg/m²/yr. Extreme multiples are best-case, not typical.

Controlled environments can mature crops ~25–50% faster and lift yields by roughly ~30–35% versus soil, enabling year-round continuous production.

Photosynthesis is driven by PAR (≈400–700 nm); plan to crop DLI targets — leafy greens commonly ~12–17 mol/m²/day. Spectrum-tuned LEDs have shown ~28–40% energy savings while sustaining ~2–3× yield/m² in reported vertical operations.
