- 42.9% yield increase (beds)
- 15.1% yield increase (pots)
The Context and Challenge for R*******
Z*** has always been engaged in eco-friendly living and sustainable solutions. While cultivating cannabis, he keeps in mind that the excess use of resources such as water and nutrients can impact the environment. Increasing cannabis crop yield should not come at the detriment of Mother Nature and therefore, Z*** is open to solutions that can help lower costs for cultivations while enhancing sustainable farming practices. ZOECORE provides solutions to all these factors.
The Solution
ZOECORE is a chemical-free device that has a proven track record of crop yield increase with fruit trees, row crops, greens, and other traditional agriculture crops. The technology was designed to enhance the plants’ ability to uptake water efficiently allowing more water to be taken up by the plant and less water passing through the soil. Additionally, this enhancement allows for more efficient nutrient
transfer resulting in more vigorous growth and greater yields. As a result, ZOECORE was installed on four cannabis farms for the first time in order to validate the technology for cannabis. R******* was one of the first adopters of this technology. R******* who participated in this case study received free trial service.
The Pilot
The ZOECORE unit was installed adjacent to the water source and powered by a portable gas generator. For both beds and pots, all the cannabis plants before the orange lines represent the control group with untreated water. All plants behind the orange line represent the treatment group with ZOECORE treated water. Thanks to this setup, it was easy to identify the effects of ZOECORE at harvest time.
The Results
After 4 months of treatment with ZOECORE, the control group in the pots weighed on average 511.9 grams whereas the ZOECORE treatment group in the pots weighed on average 589.4 grams, which represents a 15% crop yield increase. The Cannabis grown in beds, however, saw greater yield increase with a total weight of 1138.8 grams on average; the ZOECORE treated Cannabis has a 43% increased yield compared to the control, which weighed just 797.1 grams on average.
The stated production rates are based on controlled tests and may vary depending on individual farm conditions, climate, and implementation methods.
Using the ZOECORE machine increased yield 143% compared to the control group, so very clearly there is a financial advantage to using it. I imagine it paid for itself in the first round.
