A vehicle system includes a chassis, a plurality of wheels coupled to the chassis and supporting the chassis for rolling on a surface, and a riding platform coupled to the chassis. The riding platform is for supporting a user behind the chassis when the riding platform is in a downward pivoted state. A linkage connects the riding platform to the chassis for selective pivotal motion relative to the chassis between an upward pivoted state in which the riding platform is pivoted into a position to allow a user to walk behind the chassis and a downward pivoted state in which the user may ride or step on the platform.

Embodiments disclosed herein describe systems and methods associated with light mounting systems. Embodiments may include lighting shelves that are configured to be mounted to a fixed structure, such as to a wall or supports within a room via a cantilever design that is mounted to strut channels. The lighting shelves may be anchored at only a single end to the strut channels, and the lighting shelves may protrude away from the strut channels. The lighting shelves may have a sufficient width and length to cover an entire region of interest below the lighting shelves, which may enable to lighting shelves to uniformly distribute light to plants.

Carts for supporting indoor growth of plants, modular plant growing systems including the carts, and methods of growing plants indoors are disclosed herein. The carts include a support frame, a plurality of light sources, an electrical input structure, an irrigation water distribution manifold, and an irrigation water collection manifold. The modular plant growing systems include a racking system and the carts. The methods include positioning a plurality of plants, positioning at least one flood tray, positioning a cart, fluidly interconnecting a water source, electrically interconnecting an electrical outlet to an electrical input structure, and promoting growth.

A trolley comprising a plurality of rectangular and elongated shelves comprising a plate providing a surface for carrying goods, such as potted plants and flowers, and hooks, and a plurality of posts provided with a series of openings, such as slots, receiving the hooks. The hooks extend in lateral direction and a series of openings is provided in precisely one side of the posts or in precisely two and opposite sides of the posts.

A plant support assembly for facilitating the growing of plants includes a plate and a frame that is octagonally shaped. A net is coupled to and extends inwardly from the frame. A plurality of rods is coupled to and extends between the plate and the frame. Each rod comprises a plurality of nested sections so that the rod is selectively extensible. A plurality of rollers is coupled to a lower surface of the plat. The net is configured to support stems and leaves of a plant that is growing from a container that is positioned on an upper surface of the plate. The rollers are configured to roll on a horizontal surface to selectively position the plate.
