Abstract

See full text

An integrated trellis machine for growing systems. The trellis machine comprises a framework which supports a shroud such that the shroud defines a growing area within the interior of the trellis machine. A nutrient delivery system supplies nutrients to vegetation as it grows within the growing area. A lighting system supplies light to the vegetation and includes a source of light which is housed within a casing. The casing is supported within the growing area and forms a conduit having ends which are open to the exterior of the growing area. A trellis is supported by the framework and located within the growing area between the nutrient delivery system and the source of light The trellis forms a barrier between the vegetation and the source of light and the trellis is shaped so as to redirect the growth of the vegetation as the vegetation grows.
