Garden Robots: I always kina lose my mind a little when I think about this product because my inner techy wants one of these so badly. FarmBot is an open-source CNC gantry and drivetrain system that mounts to a raised bed or similar infrastructure. It comes with an interface so that you can program (drag & drop) the FarmBot to plant, weed, water, fertilize and monitor your garden. If you like tech you’ll love this – Watch their video.
@ZiggityZig there was a test in England of a very small, fully automated farm. Like locked and no humans.. I read an article about it I now (of course) can't find.
@Camerondotca I would really like to see that test. I'm going to see if can find it. Thanks for sharing.
@Camerondotca Great follow-up article, the hands-free hectare, I'm setting up a google alert to follow this story. Thanks again for posting it.
@ZiggityZig all good. My brain is a mess of half remembered crap, trivial and bizarre links. So I'm glad to have used it for something useful.
