Abstract: A method, a system and a converter plate for use in a system for growing plants comprising a converter plate having a generally flat circular portion having a central portion having a first thickness and an outer circular portion that is thinner than the first thickness and a plurality of hollow wicking cup legs extending from the central portion and the hollow wicking cup legs having open tops where the hollow wicking cup legs join the central portion. At least one of the hollow wicking cup legs having a base portion having an opening therein to promote the wicking of water through capillary action when the converter plate is in use. Surrounding the central portion is an outer ring that is of thinner thickness than the central portion. The outer ring includes cutting guides to facilitate the cutting of the outer ring to reduce the diameter of the converter plate.

Abstract: Our integral user configurable sniper rifle stock comprises a wide forearm and a relatively narrow carry portion extending rearwardly from the forearm. An action mounting portion extends rearwardly from the carry portion. An angled relatively vertical, stippled grip extends rearwardly and downwardly from the receiver portion. An open rear stock portion extends rearwardly from the grip. The carry portion is narrower and thinner than the forearm. The action mounting, grip and rear portions are generally as wide as the carry portion. The forearm comprises a forend having an angled base and a flat serrated base portion extending rearwardly from the forend. A "T" channel rail is disposed within the angled base to mount a bipod. The folded legs of a bipod lie along the barrel. The grip defines a weight receptive cavity. A trigger guard extends from the receiver portion to the grip. The rear stock portion comprises upper and lower braces with a butt extending vertically between rear extents of the braces.
