A foliage shredder that can shred inputted foliage matter into uniform sized particles without pulverizing the inputted foliage matter includes a housing, a shredding axle, a motor, a stand, a digital timer, a power cord, and a lid. The shredding axle is concentrically positioned within a cylindrical compartment of the housing and rotatably coupled to a rotor of the motor. A stator of the motor is externally connected to the housing and electrically connected to the power cord through the digital timer. The lid is terminally attached to the housing thus closing the cylindrical compartment. The cylindrical compartment functions as a container unit for the inputted foliage as the electrically powered shredding axle shreds the inputted foliage into uniform sized particles.

The invention is broadly in the agricultural field, more precisely in the field of industrial plant growth facilities. In particular, the invention concerns an industrial plant growing facility (100) for growing a variety of plants using predetermined growth conditions. Also, the invention concerns methods for growing plants in industrial plant growth facilities (100).

A reconfigurable butterfly conservatory includes a raised garden base that defines an inner garden area. The raised garden base includes holes for receiving complementary upright poles. The conservatory further includes a canopy structure that includes connectors for receiving the complementary upright poles, wherein the canopy structure includes an air vent and one or more first windows that can be opened and closed. The air vent includes a mesh layer that promotes chrysalis formation. The conservatory further includes a plurality of side walls that are configured for coupling to at least the canopy roof structure for suspending the plurality of side walls such that bottom edges of the side walls are positioned adjacent to the raised garden base to define a hollow interior space that includes the inner garden area. At least one side wall is formed at least substantially of a mesh material.
