The irrigation evaluation system segments the turf site into irrigation management units, where each of the irrigation management units includes at least one sprinkler head. Qualities of the turf are measured to generate collected data points. The data points are used by the irrigation evaluation system to compute a value for the turf in each of the irrigation management units. The values can then be used to identify irrigation management units having common characteristics. The values can be used to define irrigation management zones for controlling the irrigation system.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2021Publication date: April 14, 2022Applicant: The Toro CompanyInventors: Van Willis Cline, Kathleen Sue Rice, Troy David Carson

Publication number: 20220110278Abstract: A plant medium composition and methodology of application of the medium as it pertains to the micropropagation of Cannabis and related plant species is described that yields two to four-fold increase in the number of biologically functional nodes from axillary shoots thereby allowing for exponential amplification of such plant species. The compositions comprise basal plant media supplemented with: (i) one or more cytokinins, and (ii) one or more gibberellins and/or brassinolides. This achievement in exponential shoot growth of these plant species represents a marked step forward in the Cannabis industry as it pertains to commercial micropropagation of a recreationally and medicinally important plant whose extracts are the subject of numerous clinical trials.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2021Publication date: April 14, 2022Inventors: David S.
