US Patent:

20060053691, Mar 16, 2006

Filed:

Sep 12, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/224491

Inventors:

Edward Harwood - Ithaca NY, US
Travis Martin - Chicago IL, US

International Classification:

A01G 31/00

US Classification:

04706200A

Abstract:

A system and method of aeroponic farming includes depositing seeds in a flat containing micro-fleece cloth and placing the flat within a growth chamber. The upper side of the flat is subjected to light of the proper frequencies to promote growth in plants. A nutrient solution is sprayed onto the micro-fleece cloth and the developing root mass of the plants, while controlling temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide within the growth chamber. The plants are harvested resulting from the seeds at a desired stage of growth. The growth chambers can be stacked on each other and/or located side by side to save space within a facility, and to permit sharing the subsystems which control the nutrient solution, temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide for the growth chambers.
