Abstract: A method for producing a dry preformed plant growth substrate and to a dry preformed plant growth substrate. The dry preformed growth substrate includes a solid substrate body having a top surface, a bottom surface and an outer surface extending between the top surface and the bottom surface around the solid substrate body, seeds arranged inside the solid substrate body, and the solid substrate body including in a dry state at least one plant-derived component and an adhesive component forming a mixture in a form of a solid substrate body, and the solid substrate body further including natamycin.

Abstract: A method for placing seeds inside a growth substrate by a seed insertion device including the steps of: arranging the seed insertion device in contact with the growth substrate such that a tip of the seed insertion device penetrates through an outer surface of the growth substrate; creating a growth pocket inside the growth substrate with the seed insertion device; supplying seeds to the growth pocket of the growth substrate via the seed insertion device; removing the seed insertion device from contact with the growth substrate; and closing the growth pocket by elastic force of the growth substrate for forming a closed growth pocket such that the seeds remain in the closed growth pocket inside the growth substrate.

Abstract: An indoor garden device including a frame; at least two trays each having an upper surface and at least two plant containers; and at least one liquid vessel for containing liquid, the at least one liquid vessel is arranged to provide liquid to the plant containers. Said at least two trays are supported removably and separately on the frame.

Abstract: A system for indoor plant cultivation is disclosed. The system is low cost, simple system that may be used for example at homes, in restaurants, and in schools to grow vegetables and flowers.
