School Hydroponics System Grow Rack - STEM Education

The only classroom hydroponic system where all 120 students grow their own plant at once. A single tower lets a class watch — our rack lets every student participate, track their own crop, and collect their own data. It arrives fully assembled and pressure-tested: plug it in, add water, and grow.

Why students stay engaged all year: harvests in 7–15 days

The #1 reason classroom growing programs fizzle is students losing interest while they wait weeks for a crop. This system solves it. Students grow microgreens ready to harvest in just 7–15 days — a fast, motivating win — while their full-size fruit and vegetable crops mature in parallel. Continuous engagement instead of a month of waiting. Tower systems can't do this; they're built for slow, full-size crops only.

More versatile than a tower

Grow microgreens, fruiting and vegetable starters, and full-size crops on the same rack. Our full-spectrum LED array supports edible plants of every kind — not the leafy-greens-only lighting that limits vertical tower systems. One rack covers seed-starting labs, microgreen experiments, culinary programs, and full harvest cycles.

Serves an entire class — up to 120 students per rack

• 5 Tier / 4 Tray: holds up to 120 individual student microgreen trays (4 trays × 30) — enough for multiple class sections to each grow their own crop
• 4 Tier / 3 Tray: holds up to 90 student trays
• Each tray also accommodates 5 1020 mesh-bottom trays or 60 student 6-cell trays — assign one growing level per class period
• Footprint: approximately 48"W x 30"D x 76"H — fits neatly in a classroom, library, or lab
• Best for grades 5–12 for access, per-student grow space, and production capacity

Fully automated — it grows itself

A customized full-spectrum LED array tuned for edible plants, paired with energy-efficient fan arrays for high output and low energy use. The self-watering system runs on automatic timed light and watering cycles — just keep the tank filled. Cycles come calibrated to the included microgreens and can be customized to your school's goals, with professional development and program support included.

Everything's included

Trays, seeds, growing media, domes, fans, basins, pumps, timers, and a full-year, NGSS-aligned K–12 curriculum — everything you need to run this STEM production lab out of the box. Ideal for experiments, culinary programs, agricultural and entrepreneurial education, STEM engagement, and after-school programs.
