Abstract: Growing systems may include a number of modular growing chambers adapted to be configured in a stacked arrangement with each growing chamber surrounding a corresponding portion of the plant. The grow chambers may be selectively added or removed during plant growth, such that different sections of the growing plant may be influenced differently using aeroponic, hydroponic or other growing techniques. The grow chamber stack may be portable and provided with integrated or independent lifting devices to assist an operator in adding or removing chambers from the stack. Three growing processes may be facilitated using such systems. These include a process for producing assorted product from a single plant for simultaneous harvest, a process for producing an extended harvest of a desired size product from a single plant, and a process for extending the productive life of a plant and provide for multiple, continued, and perpetual harvest.

Abstract: An adjustable height plyometric apparatus is disclosed having a platform component, a set of base leg components, a base component to which the set of base leg components are fixedly secured, and one or more optional sets of upper leg components for attachment to the base leg components or another upper leg component. The platform component is configured to be simultaneously raised or lowered relative to the base leg components in an unlocked state and to be selectively secured thereon at any one of a selection of vertical heights in a locked state. The upper leg components are attachable to the base or other upper leg components for increasing the selection of vertical heights. Each of the upper leg components may be inserted within a respective leg receiving opening in a top surface of the platform component for attachment with a respective base or other upper leg component disposed therein.

Abstract: A multifunctional utensil configured for eating, cooking, and cleaning is disclosed. The utensil is comprised of a first part and a second part, and includes a spoon on one end of a handle and a fork on the other end of the handle, with additional unique features that enhance cleaning functionality. The multifunctional utensil may include a substrate portion that is relatively rigid, and a soft edge portion that runs down the length of at least a segment of the handle's edge and around the spoon's edge. The soft edge portion is configured to be conformable to surfaces of a food vessel. The soft edge portion may be over-molded onto the rigid portion resulting in a utensil that consists of both rigid and soft elements.
