Grower Saves Countless Hours with the Mobile-Mee 20 Gallon

Agriculture

TLDR: A Casco, Maine cannabis grower, Nutraleaf, adopted the Mobile-Mee 20 Gallon Fogger, a specially designed agricultural spraying equipment by MeeFog, for integrated pest management, cutting IPM labor by countless hours while treating every inch of the plant canopy without damage.

Integrated Pest Management for Cannabis Growers

Nutraleaf, an indoor cannabis grower in Casco, Maine, needed a more efficient way to manage its Integrated Pest Management (IPM) process. Traditional spraying methods required significant labor and time to cover plants throughout the growing facility.

MeeFog provided the Mobile-Mee 20 Gallon Fogger, a mobile high-pressure fogging system designed to apply water-based solutions with fine droplets. The system helped Nutraleaf reduce application time while providing more consistent coverage throughout the plant canopy.

This commercial greenhouse fogger allowed the grower to treat plants faster with less manual effort. Its fine fog droplets reached plant surfaces effectively, helping the team save countless hours during routine IPM applications.

Customer Profile

Nutraleaf is an indoor cannabis grower in Casco, Maine. The company focuses on producing cannabis in a controlled growing environment where effective plant care and efficient processes are essential. Their primary goal was to reduce the labor hours required for its IPM program while maintaining consistent plant health across its canopy.

Nutraleaf’s adoption of the Mobile-Mee 20 Gallon Fogger has transformed its approach to integrated pest management for cannabis, saving valuable time and labor while ensuring optimal plant health.

“Every inch of the plant gets saturated and treated without damage and the Mobile-Mee helped cut down the Integrated Pest Management labor by countless hours.” — Mike, Grower at Nutraleaf

The Challenge

Treating an indoor cannabis crop for pests traditionally relies on conventional agricultural spraying equipment, which takes considerable time to apply solution evenly across dense plant canopies.

Getting full coverage, down into the leaf canopy, without over-wetting or damaging the plants added further time and labor to each treatment cycle. For Nutraleaf, this meant IPM was consuming far more labor hours than they wanted to commit to it.

The Solution

Nutraleaf turned to the Mobile-Mee 20 Gallon Fogger, an industrial-quality, high-volume, high-pressure fogging system built for use with any water-based solution. This system disperses a thin, uniform layer of solution very quickly using industrial spray nozzles, with micro-fine droplets that permeate deep into the leaf canopy rather than sitting on the surface.

Because the fog reaches the plant this thoroughly, it treats effectively with minimal waste and without over-wetting or damaging the crop. This lets a single operator cover large areas in far less time than conventional sprayers require.

Technical Details

20-gallon and 5-gallon tank sizes
Cart-mounted 2,000 PSI pump
10-micron average droplet size
Multi-nozzle sprayer, 50-foot hose
Stainless steel impaction-pin nozzles
Plug-and-play 120V power
Works with any water-based solution
Industrial quality, long service life
Creates up to a 20-foot-long plume

What Was the Strategy MeeFog Used

The Mobile-Mee was deployed as a portable fogger sprayer rather than a fixed installation. It allowed Nutraleaf’s team to move it through the indoor grow space and treat the plant canopy directly.

Its high-volume output and 20-foot plume meant one operator could apply a thorough, even treatment across large areas in a single pass.

Key Outcomes

Substantially reduced the time required for IPM applications
Saved countless labor hours during plant treatment processes
Improved consistency of solution coverage across plants
Reduced the effort required for large-area applications
Provided a faster alternative to traditional spraying methods
