Automated Supplement-Growing Appliances

The 'Spirugrow' Lets Users Keep Fresh Nutrients on Hand

— June 16, 2018 — Art & Design
Spirulina is a popular supplement that many health-conscious consumers are integrating into their daily diet, so the 'Spirugrow' is a new appliance that makes it possible for individuals to grow their own rather than purchasing store varieties.

The appliance boasts an automated operation that will grow the algae on a consistent basis to create 20 grams of spirulina on a daily basis, which is enough for a family of four to consume. The unit is capable of creating a continuous supply of the algae with minimal maintenance, which makes it ideal for active consumers who don't have the time to keep track of the growth cycles.

The 'Spirugrow' appliance speaks to the upstream approach that many consumers are taking by growing their own foods and supplements rather than opting for prepackaged varieties.
