  • Patent number: 5035077
    Abstract: A modular self contained efficient horticulture growth chamber. Insulated panels form a sealed chamber having a grated sub-floor. An algae tank grows algae below the sub-floor. Trays are adjustably stacked and have mesh bottoms holding nutrient enriched gel. A broad spectrum light source is positioned on the south wall. A flow controlled irrigation misting system is timed in sequence with the light source. The chamber maintains a constant 68 to 78 degree Fahrenheit temperature with high humidity. Power is provided by a photovoltaic panel permitting installation in remote locations. The growth chamber and system provides high yields with little space and in locations not normally conducive to efficient growing.
