Frequently Asked Questions

What does the acronym AMPL™ stand for?

AMPL™ stands for AgricUltra Micro-environment Production Layers.

Is the AMPL™ Platform suitable for hobbyists?

Many efficiencies of the AMPL™ Platform are only feasible at scale or in the context of controlled environment research. An AMPL™ Platform would most likely be cost prohibitive for a home grower. For Cannabis specifically, the number of plants that can legally be grown in most countries does not equate a canopy size that would require an AMPL™ Platform.

Can I grow different plants in the same AMPL™ Platform?

Yes. However, once an AMPL™ Platform’s HVAC components are sized for a specific plant only plants with equal or less environmental requirements should be grown in that platform.

How much does an AMPL™ Platform cost?

AMPL™ Platform costs vary based on the crops to be grown and the setpoint conditions.

Can I use other manufacturer lights in an AMPL™ Platform?

The AMPL™ Platform can be used with lights from other manufacturers, only limited to LED fixtures with similar form factors (linear Rail style below 4’ in length), passively cooled (no internal fans) and wide angle of incidence.

Will AgricUltra™ help me develop a UVB+A+Visible lighting strategy?

Yes. More information regarding UVB+A+Visible lighting recipe development can and will be provided.

Can I see the AMPL™ Platform in real life?

Multiple AMPL™ Platforms will be coming online in 2021. Once finalized we will be able to give qualified people facility tours.

How many AMPL™ Platform layers can be stacked on top of each other?

The number of AMPL™ layers is determined by crops to be grown, style of growing and facility limitations.
