ok - apparently they have someone working with them that can put it into words better than me. That is what i was trying to say -

BENEFITS
Up to 95% reduction in water use.
Up to 70% reduction in fertilizers.
Increased growth rate.
Increased biomass.
Increased photochemical content.
Sterile production.
Eliminates need for mediums.

combine that with state of the art environmental controls and you have the perfect growing system. It is crazy - it is essentially just the plant growing in the air with a mist of water and nutrients - nothing is wasted - it is just growth - when we are talking medicine and cloning and growing plants from tissue culture - we might as well go full on scientific with it

take all that above - without mediums there are no more pots, no more medium handling - no more clean-up, no dirt is good. There is no need for anyone to handle water or nutrients - controllers can do all of that with precision.

Like I said before - I hope this is the future for Canopy Growth - Research and Development into the ultimate in cannabis production and the large scale production automated aeroponic production. The thing with Indoor Harvest - their technology will work for any high value produce, it is a fact that cannabis is going to be a really good fit for aeroponic farming in the beginning - if it doesn't make sense for cannabis it won't make sense for anything

It would be great to learn they are expanding this research partnership soon - I would like to hear about a large build out with many independantly programmable pods to work with - they could accelerate their R&D with many different pods working with slightly different variables to look for optimizations -
