A gravity-driven plant cultivation system includes: (a) a frame; (b) a plurality of vertically stacked conveyor assemblies mounted to the frame. Each conveyor assembly includes at least one gravity conveyor extending along a conveyor axis. The conveyor axis slopes downwards relative to a horizontal plane from a frame upstream end to a frame downstream end of the frame. The system further includes (c) a plurality of plant cultivation trays rollingly supported on each gravity conveyor and urged to translate along a respective conveyor axis toward the frame downstream end via gravitational force.

Provided are methods for growing and shipping sprouts and microgreens in the same container, growing while in shipment using moisture provided in a water-absorbent layer, with optional added beneficials, and including methods for producing sprouts and microgreens for consumption, and for pharmaceutical/nutriceutical use, comprising growth of sprouts in retail-ready containers, the container comprising a moisture-retaining layer of agar media or the like providing water for growth and obviating the need for irrigation during sprout growth. In certain aspects, media is supplemented with beneficial organisms or additives such as probiotic microbes, vitamins (e.g., B12), cofactors, nutrients, and other items (e.g., phytochemicals, natural colors, and antioxidants) which promote the growth of the beneficial microbes on the product, and/or which become incorporated into the product. In certain aspects, added beneficial microorganisms are selected to compete/antagonize human pathogens such as Listeria, Salmonella, enterohaemorrhagic E. coli, Yersinia, and/or spoilage organisms (e.g., Erwinia, Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas).

A transplanting device and method to eliminate seedling replanting stresses and reduce transplanting time, allowing several seedlings to quickly and efficiently go into the ground at one time in one fluid motion. The generally rectangular box has a sliding drip plate, supported above the box floor, creating an open region, allowing for water drainage and retention through the plurality of drain holes. The first short side and the opposing second short side are detachable and removable from the generally rectangular box. An alternative method provides an open top and open end slide tray in which a plurality of sliding drip plates are arrayed and separated into a plurality of plate spaces, having a plurality of seedling plants. A pair of slide handles is used to easily remove and identify the seedling plants.

A flexible greening system integrated with water into fertilizer includes a vegetation fixing assembly, a vegetation growth layer and a water supply assembly. The vegetation fixing assembly is configured to connect to a building. The vegetation growth layer is provided on the vegetation fixing assembly and is configured for planting of green vegetation. The vegetation growth layer includes a substrate layer for vegetation growth and a drainage layer provided below the substrate layer. The water supply assembly is configured to supply the water to the green vegetation, and is provided with a drainage pipe communicated with the drainage layer.

In order to climatically optimise and keep as flexible as possible a sealed climate cell for plant cultivation in a plurality of layers which are arranged one over the other and which each have at least one plant cultivation container and a lighting platform arranged thereabove, it is proposed that a first climate system of the climate cell has at least one air bag, which runs in the height direction, is arranged within the climate cell, and is designed to supply air to the individual layers in the first cultivation region.

An automated crop production system for controlled environment agriculture that includes a horizontal-to-vertical grow tower interface between a vertical grow structure that includes vertical grow towers and associated conveyance mechanisms for moving the vertical grow towers through a controlled environment, and a processing system that performs one or more processing operations—such as harvesting, cleaning and/or transplanting—on the grow towers in a substantially horizontal orientation. The present disclosure also describes an automated crop production system for controlled environment agriculture that selectively routes grow towers through various processing stages of an automated crop production system.

The word vase is an actual word or multiple words together or date or phrase or name or numbers used as a vase to put plants, or flowers, or tree inside.

The vase is an actual word made of ceramic, wood, concrete, crystal, plastic, metal, stone or any other material that is formed and used as a flowerpot. The phrase “plant hope” “Plant love” “Plant inspiration” “Plant education” are examples of how the word vase is utilized. Plant anything in direct correlation to the vase are all trademarks in conjunction with the design of the word vase. It is an actual buildout of a word that is being used to hold a plant or flower or tree inside. The vase can be made in any language and any font and any size of the vase in conjunction with a word, name, multiple words together, date, or number.

Horticulture systems and methods are disclosed. The systems include an air handling rack system comprising frame supply and return plenums, an input diffusion assembly physically supported by and fluidically coupled to the frame supply plenum, and a plant support tray assembly physically supported by and fluidically coupled to the frame return plenum. The input diffusion assembly is configured to direct a supply airflow flowing through the frame supply plenum downwardly from an underside thereof. The plant support tray assembly is positioned below the at least one input diffusion assembly to form an environmental cultivation chamber therebetween. The rack system is configured to direct the supply airflow through the environmental cultivation chamber from the input diffusion assembly to the plant support tray assembly past one or more plants positioned on a support side of the plant support tray assembly and into the frame return plenum as a return airflow.
