摘要： A stackable tower planter includes a planter bucket having an open top and a hollow interior defined by a side wall and a bottom wall. The planter bucket includes a plurality of irrigation conduits that are disposed along an inner surface of the side wall. Each irrigation conduit has an open top end and an open bottom end that is disposed above the bottom wall of the planter bucket for delivering water to a water reservoir space located along the bottom wall. The stackable tower planter further includes a soil tray disposed within the hollow interior along a bottom of the planter bucket, with the water reservoir space being located below the soil tray. A water tray is coupled to a top edge of the planter bucket. The water tray has a plurality of drain openings that are fluid communication with a plurality of hollow bosses that are located along an underside of the water tray. The hollow bosses are inserted into the open top ends of the plurality of irrigation conduits to fluidly connect a top water collection space of the water tray with the water reservoir space.

摘要： A tray for supporting floral arrangements has a base with a periphery, an interior section within the periphery, and an open section within the interior section. An exterior sidewall and an interior sidewall are respectively attached to and disposed around the base's periphery and interior section. The interior sidewall is spaced inwardly from the exterior sidewall and forms a channel between the interior sidewall and the exterior sidewall. An angled flange is attached to the exterior sidewall. A platform with a flat top and a curved perimeter is attached to the interior sidewall's distal end. The interior sidewall is tapered from its proximal end to its distal end and surrounds a hollow space within the interior section of the base. Multiple trays are stacked in a nesting arrangement with one tray's platform extending through another tray's open section into its hollow space.

摘要： The present disclosure provides an improved self-watering planter which makes use of osmotic forces by including a vertical support which is at least partially perforated or porous, and which doubles up as a reservoir for a set of tiered planter platforms. The soil held by the planter platforms comes into contact with the porous or perforated outer wall of the support, the dampness of the soil thus determining the rate at which water is able to leak out from the support to the platforms. The planter is constructed such that the reservoir of the vertical support extends above the height of the highest platform, so that gravitational and osmotic forces are all that is required to power and regulate the supply of water to housed plants.

摘要： The present disclosure is directed to improved vertical farming using autonomous systems and methods for growing edible plants, using improved stacking and shelving units configured to allow for gravity-based irrigation, gravity-based loading and unloading, along with a system for autonomous rotation, incorporating novel plant-growing pallets, while being photographed and recorded by camera systems incorporating three dimensional/multispectral cameras, with the images and data recorded automatically sent to a database for processing and for gauging plant health, pest and/or disease issues, and plant life cycle. The present disclosure is also directed to novel harvesting methods, novel modular lighting, novel light intensity management systems, real time vision analysis that allows for the dynamic adjustment and optimization of the plant growing environment, and a novel rack structure system that allows for simplified building and enlarging of vertical farming rack systems.
