Disclosed is a hydroculture pot that can store an optimum amount of water at which a water level is appropriate for a depth of roots. A soil culture pot, having a supply and drainage hole that enables supplying and draining of water in a bottom portion, is used and a partitioning wall, vertically partitioning an interior of the pot main body in a watertight manner to store an optimum amount of water at which a water level is appropriate for a depth of roots of a spider plant, is disposed at an inner circumferential surface of a pot main body. An interior of the pot main body is filled with hydroculture soil and the optimum amount of water is stored in the pot main body so that the water level appropriate for the depth of roots of spider plant planted in the pot main body is a maximum level.

The invention refers to a decorative aggregate (10) adapted to be mounted to a surface (100). The aggregate (10) comprises a plurality of elements (1). Each element comprises a container (2) having a bottom wall (3) and side walls (4) delimiting a cavity (5), a filling (9) of a vegetative material disposed in the cavity (5), and a fastener (8) adapted to mount the element (1) to the surface (100). The invention also refers to an element of a decorative aggregate.

Assembly line grow pods, watering stations, and seeder components that include robotic applicators are disclosed. An assembly line grow pod includes a tray held by a cart supported on a track. The tray includes a plurality of sections. The assembly line grow pod further includes a watering component providing fluid and a robotic applicator including an articulating robot arm having one or more outlets that selectively dispense the fluid therefrom. The articulating robot arm is positioned to align the one or more outlets with a corresponding one or more of the plurality of sections such that the fluid is dispensable into each of the plurality of sections independently.

A new or improved modular plant display and storage system that reduces the risks of plants tipping over and of spillage of plant and soil (or other growing medium) out the top of the pot, as well as the risk of water (and soil/growing medium) seepage and mess from the bottom of the pot. The invention can house potted plants without the need to re-pot or transplant the plants into growing medium that sits within the modular structure.

The present invention relates to an integral component based modular tank system comprising multiple H-supports configured for connecting two end-caps, multiple lateral bars, liners and specifically designed linear seal for forming a modular tank of a desired length, with no limitation of length. The system is configured to connect consecutive single modular tanks to two end-caps configured to terminate the modular tank system at respective ends; multiple lateral bars configured to transmit horizontal mechanical force between the two end-caps through the H-supports, multiple liners configured to hold the intended content of the tank; and multiple linear seals consisting of an outer seal and an inner seal configured to hydraulically seal the liners and the end-caps to each other. The modular tank system further comprising optional provision of installing a 3-part interlocking bar system, horizontal supporting bars and sprinkler system for utilizing the tank as integrated green house system. The modular tank system is also utilized as aquaponics system by further incorporating floating or non-floating trays, piping assembly, pump and specifically designed reliable automatic siphon. Thermal insulation panels may also be fitted between the lateral bars of the modular tank system for minimizing heat exchange between the content of the modular tank system and the outside environment.

An automated modular plant growing system includes a rack structure with primary guiding tracks and secondary guiding tracks transverse to each other, and upper guiding tracks in parallel and above the primary guiding tracks. The automated modular plant growing system also includes a plurality of mobile modules detachably connected to the upper guiding tracks and to a nutrient solution supply system.

A horticulture tray support system including a plurality of horticulture trays. Each one of the plurality of horticulture trays defines a plurality of growing cells. A stand includes a plurality of vertical supports spaced apart along a length of the stand. A horizontal support extends along the length of the stand between at least two of the plurality of vertical supports. The stand is configured to support the plurality of horticulture trays above a surface that the plurality of vertical supports are seated on.

The present invention is a scalable and re-configurable system for indoor growing. The scalable and re-configurable system for indoor growing is comprised of a plurality of growing sleds, in which each growing sled has a plurality of plant stations. Plants are grown in receptacles on each plant station. The plant station is rotated by a drive system. Each plant station provides irrigation. Each plant station has a forced frame connected to the top of a plant support assembly. A forced frame is used to confine each plant to a known foot-print. This is necessary in indoor growing in order to make the production uniform and efficient.

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 the first end comprises a male extension and the second end comprises a female extension; wherein the male extension and female extension are configured to snap together between two adjacent trays.

A container for growing plants includes a bottom wall, a first side wall extending perpendicular to the bottom wall, and a second side wall extending perpendicular to the bottom wall and parallel to the first side wall such that the bottom wall, the first side wall, and the second side wall at least partially define a plant growing chamber. Furthermore, the container includes a lid configured to selectively occlude access to the plant growing chamber. Additionally, one of the bottom wall, the first or second side walls, or the lid includes a rail and another of the bottom wall, the first or second side walls, or the lid defines a groove such that the rail of the container is configured to be received within a groove of a first adjacent container and the groove of the container is configured to receive a rail of a second adjacent container.
