A modular hydroponic grow box including a self-contained air filtration system is disclosed herein. The system includes a processor. The processor can receive data from one or several components of the system and can provide control signals to one or several components of the system. The grow box can include a housing. The housing can include: a reservoir portion; and a greenhouse portion. The greenhouse portion can connect to the reservoir portion via a grow tray. A top of the reservoir portion and the greenhouse portion define an enclosed volume. The greenhouse portion can include an inlet aperture and an outlet aperture. The inlet aperture can be obstructed by an inlet filter such that air flowing into the greenhouse portion passes through the inlet filter, and the greenhouse portion can be connected to a fan that can propel air through the inlet aperture and out of the outlet aperture.

A closed loop system for growing vegetation is provided. The closed loop system includes at least a first transport conveyor and a second transport conveyor. Each of the first and second transport conveyors includes a front end opposite a rear end. The present invention further includes at least a first transfer conveyor. A lighting system is positioned to emit light towards the first transport conveyor and a second transport conveyor. The present invention further includes at least one terrace structure. The first transport conveyor transports at least one terrace structure from the front end to the rear end, the first transfer conveyor transfers the at least one terrace structure from rear end of the first transport conveyor to the front end of the second transport conveyor and the second transport conveyor transports the at least one terrace structure from the front end to the rear end.

The disclosure relates to technology for hydroponics. An aspect includes a hydroponic system comprising a tray having a drain opening in a bottom of the tray. The hydroponic system comprises a water re-circulation system configured to re-circulate water containing plant nutrients through the hydroponic system. The water re-circulation system is configured to provide the water containing the plant nutrients to the tray. The tray is configured to convey the water along the bottom the tray to the drain opening, the drain opening configured to drain the water from the tray. The hydroponic system comprises different types of removable growing structures that are configured to provide corresponding different vertical distances between a top of a hydroponic growing medium and the bottom of the tray.

The present invention relates to an indoor aquaponics assembly which includes a base, an aquarium positioned above and supported by the base, a planter positioned above the aquarium, an aquarium conduit and a planter conduit. The planter is provided with at least two through holes facing towards the aquarium, one being adapted for a water drainage tube to pass through for draining water from the planter to the aquarium, and one being adapted for a tube of a pump to pass through for pumping water from the aquarium to the planter. The present invention aims at reducing the time and efforts required for caring and maintaining the aquarium and the plants.

A hydroponic growing system is presented. The system can include multiple growing trays in a vertical arrangement, where a pump supplies the top-most tray and each lower tray is supplied by the overlying tray, and where the plumbing elements for supply and drainage are arranged to one side of the system. The system includes variations to support different crop types within the same system, including removable growing structures for root vegetable, microgreens and supports for vining crops. The system can monitor and adjust the nutrients and other features of the systems water profile to concurrently group multiple crops in differing developing stages.

A plant planting device and a plant planting method. The plant planting device includes at least one plant growing tank, the at least one plant growing tank includes a tank body and a tilt member which is obliquely provided at a bottom of the tank body, configured to support a plant and includes at least one flow guiding element provided on the tilt member; the at least one flow guiding element is arranged to guide liquid for growing the plant to flow from an end to an other end of the tilt member, and the end and the other end of the tilt member are relatively tilted with each other.

A hydroponic tray for agricultural use. More particularly, the hydroponic tray allows control on fluid flowing there through. The tray includes an inlet end for the ingress of fluid and an outlet end for the egress of fluid, a trough extending continuously between the inlet end and the outlet end along which, in use, the fluid flows, and at least one fluid regulator device extending transversely across the trough, wherein each fluid regulator device comprises a sluice panel adapted to allow a predetermined rate of fluid flow there through and a control panel moveable relative to the sluice panel to vary the rate of fluid flow through the fluid regulator.

A modular commercial plant cloning system and method for stimulating root growth from a plant stem. The system includes a supporting frame, a light source, a fluid reservoir, and a cooling element. The supporting frame further includes a plurality of mounting points for securing a plant holding device tray at a desired height and spacing within the supporting frame below the light source. The plant holding device tray houses a plurality of plant holding devices that the plant stems are placed in during the cloning process. The lower end of the supporting frame includes the fluid reservoir, wherein the fluid reservoir further includes a cooling element therein. Additionally, the fluid delivery system helps transport fluid from the fluid reservoir to the sprayer nozzles which are configured to distribute fluid across the plant stems disposed within the plant holding device tray.

An indoor gardening appliance includes a liner defining a grow chamber and a grow module rotatably mounted within the grow chamber for receiving a plurality of plant pods. A grow module is provided for receiving pods within apertures of the grow module, which includes locking tabs configured for slidably engaging with slots, which are defined in each pod. The grow module and the pods have complementary tapered interfaces that form a seal when the locking tabs are slidably engaged with the slots.

Plant incubation apparatuses are provided. In some embodiments, the plant incubation apparatus may comprise a housing defining an upper chamber and a lower chamber; a partition positioned between the upper and lower chambers; and a plant-retaining opening extending through the partition that receives and supports a plant therein such that roots of the plant are positioned in the lower chamber and a remainder of the plant is positioned in the upper chamber. In some embodiments, the plant incubation apparatus may comprise at least one sensing device collecting data indicative of at least one of a plant property and an environmental parameter within the apparatus. Also provided are related methods.
