A tray for a vertical growing system for growing plants having opposed first and second side walls, a first open end and second open end opposed to the first end defining a perimeter of the tray; and a raised region disposed within the perimeter of the tray wherein at least one side wall is configured with a downward sloping outer face to direct fluid from the tray to an adjacent gutter. The tray forms one side of an enclosed plenum which directs forced air to growing mediums supported by each tray via holes formed in each tray. A bottom side of the tray includes ribs and valleys exposed to an interior of the plenum where such ribs and valleys contribute to substantially constant air velocities emanating from each hole in each tray along an entire length of the plenum.

A plant pot and tray system, the system comprising: a plurality of plant pots, each plant pot comprising a bottom, which includes a plurality of apertures, a lower step extending outwardly and upwardly from the bottom, four sides extending upwardly from the lower step, an upper step extending outwardly from the sides, a rim extending outwardly from the upper step, a slot in opposing sides of the rim and a reinforcing block on the upper step adjacent to each slot; and a tray, the tray comprising a plurality of receptacles, the plurality of receptacles defined by a base, a raised lip above the base, which defines a central aperture in each receptacle, at least one of four sides that extend upwardly from the base, and a central divider that extends upwardly from the base.

An extendable plant tray assembly comprising a plurality of plant holders in a grid structure, wherein in a first direction said plant holders are movably connected through an extension system arranged to move said assembly between a retracted position and an extended position, the assembly including at least one grid structure element holding a plurality of plant holders in a second direction transverse to said first direction, wherein the plurality of plant holders are arranged on the at least one grid structure element in a staggered manner, alternating a plant holder with a plant holder receiving space, wherein the extension system comprises extendable connection members which are configured to connect at least two grid structure elements, and wherein the extendable connection members are detachably connected to said at least two grid structure elements.

The present disclosure relates to a flowerpot structure, including a flowerpot body. The flowerpot body includes an inner pot and an outer pot that are detachably matched, the inner pot includes a pot opening and a compressible pot body, an upper end of the outer pot is detachably matched with the pot opening, the outer pot is detachably mounted with a pot holder, and the outer pot can be unfolded into a sheet-like structure. The flowerpot of the present disclosure achieves a reduction in transportation volume by using its detachable structure. No matter whether a single flowerpot is or a plurality of flowerpots are transported, the packaging volume during transportation can be reduced by disassembly and compression.

A pot (10) for a plant. The pot (10) may include an inner pot section (12) adapted to receive the plant, an outer pot section (14) adapted to receive the inner pot section (12) and a water collection vessel (16) adapted to be removably fittable between an inner base (32) of the inner pot section (12) and an outer base (18) of the outer pot section (14). The vessel (16) includes a substantially enclosed body (50) with a vessel aperture (52) arranged to align and fit with a drain aperture (44) of the inner base (32) in a fitted condition so as to enable substantially sealed fluid communication therebetween.

A hanging plant water saucer support assembly includes a support ring and a plurality of support assemblies. The support ring is designed to hold a water saucer by an outer rim thereof. Each of the plurality of support assemblies includes an elongated member, a first connecting device positioned at a first end of the elongated member and detachably connecting the support ring and the elongated member, and a second connecting device positioned at a second end of the elongated member and designed to detachably connect to a hanging plant to suspend the support ring and a water saucer held thereby from a hanging plant adjacent a bottom portion thereof to catch water.

A carrier tray for carrying multiple plant pots includes a plurality of sockets for receiving plant pots, where the sockets include a first set of planar areas, arranged alternately and with a second set of planar areas, with a concertinaed section provided between each planar area of the first set and of the second set. The first set of planar areas are of variable geometry and can be urged from a first, kind angle to the vertical when the socket is unfulfilled, to a second, smaller angle to the vertical when a pot is inserted into the socket.

Hydroponic systems for growing plants, and a corresponding process for line production of the hydroponic systems are provided.

A plant pot assembly includes a pot portion having at least one sidewall extending upwardly from a sidewall bottom section to an upper rim and a dividing structure that is spaced between the sidewall bottom section and upper rim. The dividing structure, bottom section, and the at least one sidewall define a basin cavity. A drain aperture allows fluid to flow from a plant's soil into the basin cavity. A basin portion includes a basin floor, a basin front, a basin back, at least one basin sidewall, and an elevated portion for plugging the drain aperture. The at least one sidewall defines an opening in the basin cavity whereby the basin portion may be removably inserted into the basin cavity. A watering accessory for directing water towards the roots of a plant is configured to be removably attached to the upper rim of the pot portion.
