The Lazyframe
by LAZYSCROG technologies
From the moment we created the Lazyscrog, one question had us captivated:
How can we get it outside?
Sure, the Lazyscrog works wonders inside the tight confines of a grow tent, but the world of horticulture extends far beyond those reflective nylon walls.
The question acquired even more urgency when a simple enhancement to the Lazyscrog saw it equipped it for the cultivation of a variety of popular food crops.
So we thought long and hard about how we might bring the Lazyscrog out of the grow tent and into our gardens, our greenhouses. Perhaps even our fields.
Months went by. All kinds of hare-brained schemes were conceived, only to be quickly abandoned. Everything seemed so complicated, when all we needed to find was a means of putting a pulley system above a few plants.
When the solution finally came to us, in the form of the Lazyframe, it didn't take us long to realise the applications. One by one, the possibilities revealed themselves, until we finally understood the staggering implications of what we had conceived.
And then we had to go and have a cup of tea and a bit of a lie down.
Choose Your Weapon
Since the dawn of agriculture, farmers have been engaged in endless war. Be it slugs or snails, rabbits or rats, there is always something to fight.
And not just those pesky critters. The spectre of extreme weather has been haunting farmers since we first began planting grass for food.
Great storms. Widespread flooding. Devastating wildfires. Once upon a time, these events were mostly the stuff of ancestral lore, epic battles with Mother Nature, woven into our grandparents’ fireside tales. Now, crop-destroying cataclysms seem to punctuate our news feeds with alarming frequency.
So what are farmers to do? Roll over and accept their lot? Write off these expensive defeats as an inexorable cost of tilling the earth of an overheating planet?
Here at Lazyscrog, we’re determined to help them fight back, with the help of the Lazyframe, our revolutionary Elevated Growing Platform, featuring a range of modular crop-protection measures that can be tailored to counter a variety of specific environmental threats.
Why Lazyframe?
Air Gap Your Crop
The Lazyframe brings all the good stuff of raised bed farming, with a twist.
In addition to the myriad benefits of precision soil control, improved drainage and aeration, not to mention natural weed and pest control, our unique, Elevated Growing Platform allows your plants to live their lives utterly unbothered by events on the ground.
​
Even when it floods.
Active Crop
Defence Measures
From rain and hailstorm sensors, to automated protective screens, the Lazyframe's range of modular crop defence measures will ensure your crops are protected, no matter the threat.
Natural Weed
& Pest Control
The Lazyframe's elevated beds significantly reduce pest intrusion and weed growth, creating a more controlled and manageable growing environment.
​
This approach minimizes the need for chemical pesticides, fostering a healthier, more natural growth process.
Targeted Irrigation
The Lazyframe's modular, solar-powered irrigation system optimizes water usage, ensuring efficient hydration directly to plant roots.
​
With its range of modular add-ons and sensors, the Lazyframe can take the worry out of watering.
Modular & Scalable
Gardens. Greenhouses. Agricultural fields.
​
The Lazyframe's modular and scalable design allows for customizable and adaptable growing spaces, regardless of the scenario.
​
​
Flood Mitigation
The Lazyframe's unique Elevated Growing Platform offers unparalleled protection from the growing risk of floods.
This is particularly valuable in areas prone to heavy rainfall, ensuring continuous, healthy plant growth even in the most challenging weather conditions.
Extend Your
Growing Season
The soil in the Lazyframe's elevated beds warms up more quickly in the spring and stays warm longer into the fall.
This can extend your growing season, allowing for earlier planting and potentially more harvests in a year.
Precision Soil Control
Growing in the Lazyframe's elevated beds offers complete control of the soil content, allowing for easy customization and fine-tuning.
This ensures your plants receive exactly what they need, from nutrients to pH balance, for healthier, more robust crops
