Abstract: A system for growing vegetation that includes a plurality of zones, each zone having environmental conditions that vary from environmental conditions in other zones, at least one zone sensor measuring environmental conditions in each zone, a local database operative to store sensor measurements from the zone sensors, a remote database operative to receive and to store a subset of the sensor measurements stored in the local database, and a remote computing device operatively connected to the remote database. The remote computing device operative to receive information regarding movements of batches of vegetation through the plurality of zones and, using the received information, associate sensor measurements of the environmental conditions the batch of vegetation is subjected to as it move through the zones. A timeline for a batch of vegetation can be created that indicates the environmental conditions the vegetation is subjected to moving through the zones.
