Methods for producing a canola variety comprise crossing canola variety 46M34 with another canola plant. Methods for producing a canola plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into 46M34 through backcross conversion and/or transformation, and to the canola seed, plant and plant part produced thereby are described. Canola variety 46M34, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, plant parts and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of canola variety 46M34 are disclosed.

Disclosed herein is a high growth, high density, closed environment growing system and methods thereof. A method of accelerating plant cell growth in a growing system may include adjusting the lighting in accordance with an identified plant growth stage.

Exemplary embodiments described in the application are directed to planting container potting insert devices and methods of use that simplify the potting of a plant in a planting container having an interior volume that exceeds the volume required by the root material and supporting soil associated with the plant. Exemplary embodiments include a plant receiving and supporting component, and an associated suspension assembly for suspending the plant receiving and supporting component within the interior volume of a planting container of interest. The plant receiving and supporting component may be in the form of a mesh bag.

In some examples, a system for filtering and distributing fluid in a planting device comprises a first receptacle and a second receptacle. The first receptacle includes a first filter and a second filter. The second receptacle includes a first aperture and a second aperture. Fluid can enter the second receptacle through the first aperture and drain from the second receptacle through the second aperture to the second filter in the first receptacle. The system may include a pump configured to pump fluid from the first receptacle through the first filter to the first aperture of the second receptacle. Moreover, the system may include barriers that at least partially obstruct fluid flow between the first aperture and the second aperture. Each of the barriers includes a plurality of perforations located along a width of the barrier; each of the plurality of perforations allows fluid to flow through the barrier.

This multiplant bioactive composting pot of chosen shape, size, and material has a central composting chamber (1) with two or more outer plant chambers(2) separated by a partition (4) forming soil loaded plant and waste loaded composting parts. Each plant chamber has water drain hole (6) on the side, an inside a stem support insert (7) and is filled with soil. The compost chamber is pre-coated with composting microbes. The compost chamber has a lid (3)in rainy& snowy areas. The waste is composted in few days. The plant roots grow into partition holes (5) and suck up this nutrition for faster growth and more yield. Any excess water is drained out by hole (6) in the soil part. Series of these pots form an organic garbage garden to add nutrition and clean up air too.

A method of improving the growth of plants belonging to the family Cannabaceae sensu stricto by providing a plant nutrient solution about the plant roots and a gas mixture circulating about the plant shoot; by selecting the gas mixture and plant nutrient solution temperature independently of the other; and providing a plant nutrient solution to gas mixture temperature differential of approximately 0 F. or of at least approximately 15 F. during different phases of plant development, in order to change the plant development to improve a desired plant organ for industrial, scientific, and medical purposes. Infection of plants by Pythium, Fusarium, Verticillium, and Rizoctonia are treated or prevented by selecting a gas mixture temperature that is approximately 65 to 85 F. and a plant nutrient solution temperature that is approximately 35 to 65 F.

The invention provides seed and plants of melon hybrid SV3394MF and the parent lines thereof. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of melon hybrid SV3394MF and the parent lines thereof, and to methods for producing a melon plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another melon plant, such as a plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of such plants, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.

A consumer product for supplementing carbon dioxide is provided with delayed activation control in the form of a clamp. A bag, having a top and a bottom seal and a filter, contains a mycelial mass prepared under sterile laboratory conditions using aseptic techniques. The bag may be selectively clamped at various locations on its exterior. During manufacturing, the mycelial mass is sealed away from the air exchange portal by the clamp. The manipulation delays the optimized carbon dioxide generation and extends the product shelf-life significantly. The fungi are utilized on-demand by removal of the clamp and carbon dioxide flows from the product. Consumers will place the product near indoor plants. The precise clamping method delays the expiration of the product for storage and shipping optimization. The clamp is relocated to the top of the bag in order to provide a hanger for the carbon dioxide generator above plant level.
