VERTICAL INDEXING OF GROW TOWER SEGMENTS

VERTICAL INDEXING OF GROW TOWER SEGMENTS

A plant support structure (2400) comprises segments (2402), which each include at least one plant (2408) site. Each segment (2402) may have a first end portion (2404) and a second end portion (2406). The first end may have a first opening, and the second end may slidably nest inside the first openin...

Zusammenfassung:A plant support structure (2400) comprises segments (2402), which each include at least one plant (2408) site. Each segment (2402) may have a first end portion (2404) and a second end portion (2406). The first end may have a first opening, and the second end may slidably nest inside the first opening of an adjacent segment (2402) to enable an increase of distance therebetween. The first opening may be larger the second opening. Spacers (2450) or couplings between segments (2402) may be used to slide the segments (2402) apart. Each segment (2402) may include a path for a nutrient solution to flow to the at least one plant (2408) site in the segment (2402).
