Partnering mirrors and reflective material with growing lights to enhance plant growth for maximizing indoor plant production

摘要

Agribusiness like most markets is very competitive. In particular, agricultural products that have a short shelf life create an added pressure to sell and ship more quickly. By using mirrors and other reflective material, the cost of production is reduced, while improving the quality and quantity of plant production. This process of using mirrors and reflective material improves plant growth and production beyond other indoor or outdoor growing systems. This process may be the most efficient system by growing plants in a sterile, pesticide-free, and easily accessible facility, significantly reducing labor costs. By controlling every facet of the growing process, commercial production can occur in virtually any kind of outdoor weather conditions, while making best use of land and natural resources, potentially affecting agribusiness globally. Because this process has national and global consequences, the use of mirrors and reflective material for plant production needs to be patented.
