The present invention relates to mixtures comprising a solid carrier comprising an urease inhibitor and a further solid carrier comprising a nitrification inhibitor such as 3,4-dimethyl pyrazole phosphate (DMPP) or 2-(3,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl) succinic acid (DMPSA), to a method for improving the nitrification-inhibiting effect, or for increasing the health of a plant using mixtures of at least one compound I and at least one compound II; to the use of mixtures comprising compounds I and compounds II for increasing the health of a plant.

An aeroponic planter for use in-ground includes a top strip for receiving plugs that are designed for holding plants. The planter has a rooting chamber capable of enabling aeroponic growth of plant roots, the rooting chamber having a base with a drain. A drain chamber mounts at the base of the rooting chamber for receiving liquid from the rooting chamber. At least one anchor mounted on each of the rooting chamber and the drain chamber for securing the aeroponic planter in soil. In an alternate embodiment, the at least one anchor is integral with the top strip.

Disclosed is a shelf light for plant growth having vertical stand with a plurality of wooden partitions vertically arranged in parallel at intervals and wooden vertical rod connected between adjacent wooden partitions, and lighting unit on top of vertical stand. Wooden partition on topmost end vertically is constructed as light holder for arranging lighting unit; power box powering lighting unit is mounted on another wooden partition below light holder; power box is provided with plug connecting wire accessing to electricity, with side wall configured with USB-A, USB-B and USB-C interfaces and top surface configured with wireless charging pad. The utility model, a framework entirely formed by connecting all-wooden materials, has firm structure, with functions of plant growth light, USB power docking station and wireless charging pad, so as to provide green decoration for home environment while compounding use of charging base stations, resulting in strong functionality and high space utilization.

T-slot interconnects that include a body portion and two orthogonally elongated interlock tabs positioned on opposed sides of the body portion are used for building T-bar structures, including grow-light canopies. In operation, the elongated interlock tabs are placed into T-channels of the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars. The T-slot interconnects are then rotated to secure the elongated interlock tabs within the T-channels of the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars and, thereby, secure the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars together through the T-slot interconnects.

The present invention relates to the use of novel nitrification inhibitors of formula (I), which are N-functionalized alkoxy pyrazole compounds. Moreover, the invention relates to the use of compounds of formula (I) as nitrification inhibitors, i.e. for reducing nitrification, as well as agrochemical mixtures and compositions comprising the nitrification inhibitors of formula (I).

An integrated modular and scalable fogponics crop growth system for cultivating a crop includes an upper growth chamber housing a leafy portion of a crop, a lower growth chamber housing a root portion of the crop, a nutrient tank and dispenser, and an environmental system. The nutrient dispenser is coupled to the nutrient tank holding a nutrient mixture for sustaining the crop. The dispenser atomizes the nutrient mixture into a nutrient fog using a booster pump and a high pressure pump capable of generating approximately 800 PSI to 1500 PSI. The high pressure pump is operatively coupled to a nozzle configured to dispense the atomized nutrient fog, substantially between 6 microns and 15 microns droplet size, into the lower growth chamber. Temperature and humidity are separately controlled in the leaf area.

The invention relates to a particulate urea-based blend composition comprising a urea-based compound in particulate form and one or more components in particulate form, selected from the group of nitrates, phosphates, sulphates and chlorides, and a urease inhibitor of the type phosphoric triamide, and a magnesium sulphate, wherein the urea-based blend composition is further characterized in that it comprises an alkaline or alkaline-forming compound, selected from the group of calcium oxide, zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate, and mixtures thereof. The composition according to the invention has improved properties for reducing ammonia loss by urease activity in the soil and is in particular suitable as a fertilizer. The invention further relates to a method for the manufacture of said urea-based blend composition, as well as to a composition of kit of parts comprising an amount of a) magnesium sulphate; b) a urease inhibitor of the type phosphoric triamide, preferably N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (nBTPT); c) an alkaline or alkaline-forming compound, selected from the group of calcium oxide, zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate, and mixtures thereof, and d) optionally, one or more anti-caking and/or moisture-repellent and/or anti-dust compounds.

Nitrification inhibitors and uses of same to prevent nitrate leaching or nitrous oxide emissions as well as increase pasture or crop production. The nitrification inhibitors and formulations including same may be used for direct or indirect application to soil or pasture.

The present disclosure relates to a plant cultivating apparatus. The plant cultivating apparatus according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a body configured to have a cultivation chamber therein, a water storage configured to be disposed in the body and store water, a water supply bed configured to be disposed at one side of the cultivation chamber and have a water supply flow path receiving water from the water storage, and a cultivation port configured to be seated on the water supply bed and receive water from the water supply flow path, in which the cultivation port includes a suction member disposed in the cultivation port and suctioning water stored in the water supply flow path, and a medium disposed above the suction member, receiving water from the suction member, and storing nutrients required for plant growth.

A growth system includes growth trolleys each having at least one carrier configured to support products for growing, and a growth hub including equipment facilitating growth of products from a group comprising fluid supply, nutrient supply, and the like. At least one of the growth hub and the growth trolleys is displaceable relative to the other of the growth trolleys and the growth hub to furnish at least one growth facilitating function to products in at least one of the trolleys, when the at least one of the growth trolleys is adjacent to the growth hub.
