Cultivation assembly
A cultivation assembly has a container, at least one first engaging structure facing outside of the container, and an engaging member. The engaging member is configured to connect the container of another cultivation assembly side by side. The engaging member has two second engaging structures facing opposite directions. Each one of the two second engaging structures is capable of engaging with one of the at least one first engaging structure. The container of the cultivation assembly is capable of being connected to the container of another cultivation assembly side by side via the engaging member and without wasting a lot of labor to move the container.
Stackable grow pot system
A stackable grow pot system including a plant pot having an inner volume, a plurality of side-walls, and a base including a selectively removeable disc. The selectively removeable disc is configured to be removed to allow plant roots to extend through an aperture. The plant pot is stackable. When stacked, the plant pot provides for volume expansion for growth of a plant and the plant roots through the aperture into a second-plant-pot. The device allows for quick and efficient transplanting.
MULTI-FUNCTIONAL POTTING VESSEL WITH GROWTH AID THEREIN
The present disclosure is related to improved potting vessels, and more specifically to an improved multi-functional textile vessel. The vessels disclosed include novel textiles, including composites of natural and synthetic materials, and microencapsulated growth aid. In a preferred embodiment, Aloe Vera is microencapsulated in a textile vessel to enhance plant growth and yield. The disclosed vessels further provided novel mixing systems and on-board tie-down systems that enhance the overall efficiency of planting processes.
Containment and Transportation System
Methods and systems are described herein including a containment system to contain a portion of a plant including a root structure and soil within a rigid wall pot. The containment system may be configured to permit the roots of the plant therein to traverse a wall of the containment system. The containment system may be configured to support the root and/or soil of the plant once removed from the rigid wall pot.
Whole plant gas exchange chamber using pressurization and ventilation of separated canopy and root zones
A whole plant gas exchange apparatus employs a chamber having a first region for accommodating a growth medium and a root system of a whole plant, and a second region accommodating a canopy of the plant. The regions are separated by a barrier, except for an opening through which the stem of the plant is accommodated. An air source supplies incoming air to the second region through an intake. An air outlet conveys outgoing air from the second region to a gas sensor for analysis of the outgoing air after photosynthetic interaction with the plant canopy. A vent communicates the first region of the chamber to an ambient environment outside the chamber. A resulting pressurized state of the second region is used to exhaust air from the first region through the vent in order to isolate this exhausted air from the analyzed canopy air.
CONTAINER AND PROCESS
A plant pot, blank for making a plant pot and a process for making a plant pot is provided. The blank and plant pot includes a support disposed a distance from the base wall of the plant pot to support a nesting container.
Metal Planter Assembly
The present invention discloses a collapsible metal planter. The planter has a plurality of wall sections. Each wall section side portion has a first end portion and an opposing second end portion. The end portions are angularly disposed inwards. Each first end portion has a first edge with a V-shaped notch positioned in vertical orientation. Each second end portion has a second edge with a V-shaped notch positioned in vertical orientation opposite to that of the first edge notch. The first edge notch and second edge notch form a square orifice when the first end portion of a wall section is placed in abutment with the second end portion of an adjacent wall section. The square orifice is receivable of a fastener to secure the adjacent wall sections together.
CULTIVATION ASSEMBLY
A cultivation assembly has a container, at least one first engaging structure facing outside of the container, and an engaging member. The engaging member is configured to connect the container of another cultivation assembly side by side. The engaging member has two second engaging structures facing opposite directions. Each one of the two second engaging structures is capable of engaging with one of the at least one first engaging structure. The container of the cultivation assembly is capable of being connected to the container of another cultivation assembly side by side via the engaging member and without wasting a lot of labor to move the container.
Reusable potting systems and methods
A potting system and method are provided in which a flexible pot side includes two sets of bottom panel apertures, each set receiving tabs from a bottom panel. The potting system is assembled by positioning mutually engaging panel mesh structures on the bottom panels while folding the flexible pot side so that a plurality of first lacing apertures aligns with a plurality of second lacing apertures, and then inserting a pull lace through the aligned apertures to mechanically interlock them. Additionally, the pot system may be easily disassembled by disengaging the pull lace from the lacing apertures which causes the pot side to unbend and allows the bottom panel tabs to disengage. The pot system may then be reassembled by reengaging the bottom panels, repositioning the lacing apertures and inserting the pull lace.
