Abstract: A growing system and/or plant support structure may include one or more feet supporting at least one or more uprights, on which a plurality of plants and/or grow boards for growing plants may be positioned. A nutrient delivery system may be positioned between opposing uprights to provide nutrient supply to a root zone of plants, which nutrient delivery system may be positioned adjacent each opposing upright in an interior chamber of the plant support structure. A light system may be positioned between two adjacent plant support structures such that it simultaneously provides light to the exterior surface of the two plant support structures. A collapsible light may be positioned adjacent plants and plant support structures for improved access to the plants or plant support structures while allowing variable and controllable light distribution beneficial to control of adjacent plants and plant structures.

Abstract: The subject invention is directed to a method for producing a raw material or materials that can be used by themselves or in combination with other ingredients to make glass of high quality at high efficiencies and short production times. The raw materials are capable of high reactivity in a glass melting furnace and therefore will allow glass to be produced either at lower temperatures or shorter residence times at the same temperatures as compared with known methods.

Abstract: The invention is an improved method for manufacturing fiberglass. In the method of the invention, quartz is replaced in whole or in part by silica containing raw materials. The use of silica containing raw materials as a replacement for quartz results in significant energy savings and a reduction in defect producing components in the glass.
