Abstract: An urban greenhouse designed for improved crop production is an enclosed space with a frost cover, mesh cover, liner, drain valve, mulch, and structural framework for gardening. It includes a roll up pipe, CO2 enhancement of the ambient air around the plants, an insulation board, and an irrigation system.

Abstract: The disclosed invention is a greenhouse suitable for growing crops and edible pants which can be used for personal or commercial uses. The embodied invention includes supporting framework and for an inner and outer cover which allows for use in colder environments. A two cover-adjustable system allows the cover to expand as crops grow.

Abstract: The embodied invention is a framework and expanding cover for a crop row that is designed to provide an enhanced crop growing environment. The framework design utilizes a top and bottom cover with affordable materials that are suitable for large scale production. The design also includes an irrigation, fertilizer, and CO2 injection system that provide an enhanced environment for plants to grow. The entire system is reducible to a small package to better facilitate use in a broad variety of environmental and personal situations.

Abstract: The embodied invention is directed toward capturing air sources that contain higher concentrations of CO2 and directing the air to a controlled crop growing environment where a crop will be able to benefit from the higher amounts of CO2. The air is preferably filtered for dust, monitored for CO2 levels, and a mixer is used to control the CO2 level to a desirable amount.

Abstract: The embodied invention utilizes a lined and domed furrow to provide for crop germinating and growth. The dome and soil lining provide for moisture control in the soil. The lining is an impermeable material, and bottom surface incorporates slits to allow plant roots to grow into the soil. The domed covering is a permeable material that covers the furrow by utilizing a domed shape wire frame spaced at intervals. A polyacrylate coating is optionally applied to the furrow cover. A drip irrigation system provides water to the soil mixture inside the lined furrow. The soil mixture includes a water absorbing polymer and an additional planting mediums. A light provides for warming the soil in the furrow to lengthen the growing season. The furrow geometry is shaped by a machine. The furrow shape will alter as the plant grows, in particular, the dome will expand.

Abstract: A structural cooling system is disclosed, which includes an evaporative cooler suitable for cooling a body of air in an upper, enclosed chamber of a structure, such as an attic, and a series of vents or ducts, particularly around the perimeter of the building, for applying the cooled air selectively to high heat-gain portions of the exterior of the structure. An interior cooling system, which may include an air-conditioning unit, is suitable for cooling the interior of the building, but will require only reduced capacity, because of the cooling effect on the structure's exterior.
