Sustainability
Energy Usage
Peak usage: When your plants are fully grown, Vext 2.0 uses up to 50 kWh per month—this is the most energy-intensive stage.
Smart savings: Energy use is lower when your plants are young or during lower light cycle settings. The cabinet also adapts lighting and fan speed based on plant needs and external conditions.
Water Usage
Young plants: When your Vext is full of seedlings, the system uses about 1 liter of water per week in total.
Mature plants: As your greens grow, they’ll require more hydration—expect usage to rise to about 1 liter per day.
Efficient delivery: Water is converted into a fine nutrient-rich mist using an ultrasonic fogger, so every drop goes straight to the roots with minimal waste.
Vext Pods
Sustainable materials: Vext pods are made from coco coir (a byproduct of coconut processing) and responsibly sourced peat.
Nothing goes to waste: The coco coir is collected after coconuts are used for food or oil, turning leftovers into a powerful growing medium.
