Zusammenfassung:INSULATED SHIPPING CONTAINERS MODIFIED FOR HIGH-YIELD PLANT PRODUCTION CAPABLE IN ANY ENVIRONMENT A system for generating high-yield plant production, the system comprising: at least one modular container (102), the container (102) being configured to be integrated with a plurality of other modular containers (102) to expand the system horizontally or vertically to fit a space; a growing system (200) housed within the container (102), the growing system (200) comprising: a germination station (202) configured to nurture a plurality of seeds until the seeds germinate into a plurality of plants (404), a plurality of vertical racks (304) coupled to the ceiling of the modular container (102) and configured to hold the plants (404) so that the plants (404) grow radially outward from the axes of the vertical racks (304), a lighting system (206) coupled to the ceiling of the container (102) and configured to provide artificial light for the plants (404), an irrigation system (1800) configured to provide a nutrient solution to the plants (404), a climate control system (204) configured to control environmental conditions inside the container (102), and a ventilation system configured to provide the plants (404) with airflow in at least two different directions; and a monitoring system (600) coupled to the growing system (200), the monitoring system (600) configured to monitor and control at least one of the germination station (202), irrigation system (1800), climate control system (204), ventilation system and lighting system (206) in order to maintain a set of conditions prescribed by a user. The monitoring system (600) is configured to provide the user with real-time alerts from the growing system (200). The monitoring system (600) is configured to allow the user to control at least one of the germination station (202), irrigation system (1800), climate control system (204), ventilation system and lighting system (206).
