Embodiment Construction

[0060] A first embodiment provides a soilless system for high density plant growth comprising:

[0061] Greenhouse type structure;

[0062]At least one elongate support member arranged substantially vertically in said greenhouse type structure, said support member having:

[0063] a body having a flow passage defined therein; and

[0064] a plurality of vertically spaced plant-containing receptacles disposed at an angle to the vertical axis of the body, the receptacles being in fluid communication with the flow channel;

[0065] a fluid supply system in fluid communication with the flow channel for supplying a fluid flow to the flow channel; and

[0066] A fluid collection system for collecting residual fluid that has flowed through the flow channel.

[0067] The greenhouse type structure may include a flux enhancing mechanism that increases the amount of visible light in the structure. The light flux enhancing mechanism may be in the form of a light transmissive material ...

Abstract

According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a soilless system for high density plant growth, said system comprising: a greenhouse type structure; at least one elongate support arranged substantially vertically in said greenhouse type structure A member, the support member has: a body having a flow channel defined therein; and a plurality of vertically spaced container tubs for receiving plants therein arranged at an angle to a vertical axis of the body, the The container barrel is in fluid communication with the flow channel; a fluid supply system is in fluid communication with the flow channel for supplying fluid flow to the flow channel; and a fluid collection system is used to collect the fluid that has flowed residual fluid through the flow path.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a low-carbon emission, soilless high-density plant growth system and method. Background technique [0002] Traditional farming involves methods in which plants are planted in soil in rows, fertilized, irrigated, and allowed to grow naturally until they reach the growth stage at which they are harvested. [0003] This traditional method of farming has various limitations and disadvantages, such as the low density of plants per square meter and thus the large area of ​​land required for cultivation, and the relatively high carbon emissions, which result from tractors and / or machinery used and excessive inappropriate use of petrochemical-based substances such as synthetic fertilizers, herbicides and / or insecticides. [0004] Over time, for example, traditional systems / methods have been modified by covering plants in channels made of materials that protect plants from insects and the natural Either there is little effect in minim...
