Compact Fogponics Planters

The Pod by Greenfingers Utilizes the Dominaero Propagation System

— November 21, 2012 — Eco
The Pod by Greenfingers is an urban agricultural project that utilizes the Dominaero propagation system designed by Fogponics, a name that is also used to describe the innovative process. A system based around aeroponic nutrient delivery technologies developed by NASA and tailored for the agricultural community, it eliminates water-born pathogens, reduces algae growth and uses a 'dry fog' nutrient delivery system to produce the healthiest, largest root system in record time.

By redesigning the planter that results in all of that good stuff, the Pod by Greenfingers, which was founded by four New Zealand industrial design students (Adam Ben-Dror, Nick Johnston, Casey Lin and Robert Skenea) for a school project, will appeal to modern gardeners.
Trend Themes
1. Compact Planters - Compact fogponics planters are disrupting traditional gardening methods by utilizing a dry fog nutrient delivery system and aeroponic nutrient technologies.
2. Urban Agriculture - The Pod by Greenfingers taps into the trend of urban agriculture by providing a solution for growing plants in limited urban spaces using NASA-developed aeroponic propagation system.
3. Fogponics Technology - The innovative fogponics technology developed by Fogponics offers disruptive opportunities for revolutionizing nutrient delivery systems in the agricultural industry.
Industry Implications
1. Gardening and Horticulture - The compact fogponics planters are set to transform the gardening and horticulture industry by improving plant growth efficiency and reducing water-born pathogens.
2. Urban Design and Architecture - The urban agriculture trend, facilitated by compact fogponics planters, presents new opportunities for integrating green spaces and sustainable food production into urban design and architecture.
3. Agricultural Technology - The Fogponics' aeroponic nutrient delivery system offers disruptive innovation opportunities in the agricultural technology sector, enabling efficient plant propagation and improved root system development.
