50+ greenhouses · 2,000+ sensor nodes · 99.7% uptime
A practical automation system for growers who need fewer manual rounds, faster response, and better records.
Growing Shouldn’t Depend on Being There Every Hour
The best growers know their plants. But even the best can’t watch every zone at once.
Manual checks are always behind
Temperature, humidity, CO2, and soil moisture may only be checked a few times each day. A 2 AM anomaly waits until morning.
Equipment is scattered
Fans, irrigation, curtains, pumps, and lights across many greenhouses turn basic control into constant walking.
Night and bad weather are blind hours
Cold fronts, storms, and humidity spikes often arrive exactly when no one is there to respond.
Decisions rely on memory
Without complete records, every season depends too much on recall instead of repeatable environmental evidence.
One System That Watches, Thinks, and Acts
A wireless and wired environmental monitoring and automation platform for commercial greenhouse operations.
YenGear deploys I/O modules across greenhouse zones to collect temperature, humidity, light, CO2, and soil moisture readings. Cloud rules then trigger connected equipment such as fans, vents, shade curtains, irrigation pumps, grow lights, and heaters.
You monitor everything from phone or desktop, with historical records that help every growing cycle become more consistent than the last.
Wired Ethernet
WiFi
4G LTE
One Platform from Sensor to Action
YenGear combines greenhouse zone sensing,
WiFi or wired connectivity, cloud rules, mobile control, alerts, and historical records in one operating system.
Everything Your Greenhouse Needs in One Platform
Monitor the crop, control the equipment, alert the right people, and keep records without switching systems.
Real-time monitoring
Track temperature, humidity, light, CO2, and soil moisture across zones with dashboard refreshes.
Automated control
Run rules such as temperature-triggered fans, dry-soil irrigation, shade curtains, or grow lights.
One-tap group control
Open vents, start irrigation, or switch grouped equipment across greenhouses from one phone screen.
Multi-channel alerts
Send app, SMS, or email notifications with the greenhouse, zone, reading, and alert level.
Historical records
Store readings, equipment actions, and alerts for reports by day, week, month, or growing cycle.
Flexible networks
Mix WiFi and wired Ethernet modules, then manage both deployment styles in one platform.
Tailored for What You Grow
Each crop has its own environmental language. YenGear lets your rules reflect that reality.
Vegetables
Ventilation, fan, drip irrigation, and CO2 rules for tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers.
Flowers
Light, shade, supplemental lighting, temperature, and humidity control for roses and lilies.
Seedlings
Tighter temperature, misting, humidity, and gradual light ramping for nursery work.
Mushrooms
CO2, humidity, fresh-air intake, fogging, and strict temperature-band alerting.
Why Growers Choose YenGear Over Generic IoT
The difference is not just connectivity. It is whether the system speaks the daily language of greenhouse work.
| Generic IoT platform | YenGear smart greenhouse solution |
|---|---|
| Sensors, protocols, dashboards, and logic often require IT configuration. | Mount modules, connect zones, name equipment, and use growing rules your team understands. |
| Automation builders are written for industrial engineers. | Rules read like greenhouse practice: if temperature is high, open vents and start fans. |
| Multi-greenhouse management may require separate dashboards or enterprise tiers. | Greenhouses, crop groups, zones, alerts, and group control share one operating view. |
| Reports often start as raw data exports. | Environmental records are organized for growing-cycle review and audit preparation. |
How a 50-Greenhouse Vegetable Operation Stabilized Yield
From clipboard rounds to one-tap control, the story is about giving growers their time and consistency back.
The operation: 50 greenhouses across 8 hectares, growing tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers for regional supermarket chains.
The challenge: Morning rounds took three workers more than four hours, winter night drops caused annual cold-stress losses, and group equipment changes required long walks.
The deployment: 85 I/O modules across 50 greenhouses, with temperature and humidity sensors, soil moisture probes, light sensors, mixed WiFi and wired networking, and mobile staff training.
“Now I check my phone, not my clipboard, and my yields prove the difference.”

Recommended Modules
Use Y201 & Y301 serial I/O modules to connect sensor inputs
and relay-controlled greenhouse equipment to the wider automation system.
Y201-G Mini 4G DTU
Bridges serial devices to cellular networks and supports nationwide 4G connectivity, wide-range power input, and four transparent Socket channels.
Y301-880 I/O Module
8DI + 8DO for zones with more switch inputs and relay-controlled loads such as pumps, fans, curtains, or lights.
Questions Growers Ask Us
Straight answers for installation, networking, rules, outages, certification, scale, and pricing.
How long does installation take?
Most deployments finish in 2-4 days with zero disruption to growing operations. Modules mount on existing structure, then sensors and network settings are configured.
What if our greenhouses do not have WiFi?
We can use wired Ethernet where cabling exists or add industrial WiFi access points after a site survey.
Can non-technical growers change rules?
Yes. Rules are built around practical conditions such as temperature, soil moisture, light, and equipment actions, and common rules are pre-configured during setup.
What happens if the internet goes down?
Modules continue local measurement and pre-configured automation. Buffered data syncs to YenGear IoT Cloud when the connection returns.
Can it support organic or GlobalG.A.P. records?
Environmental history reports can be exported by date range, which helps simplify audit preparation and buyer documentation.
Can one system handle 50+ greenhouses?
Yes. You can create greenhouses, zones, crop groups, different rules, team access, and group controls from one account.
How does pricing work?
Pricing depends on greenhouse count, zones, sensors, and control points. YenGear provides a fixed-scope quote after a brief site assessment.
