The marijuana police confiscated was valued at $100‚000.In South Florida a pound of marijuana goes upwards of $4‚000. And there is a high demand for marijuana grown in hydroponic labs‚ which produce plants with a higher level of THC‚ the agent that produces hallucinations.Fojo said police officers arrested Sandy

What is green chemistry? According to McGraw-Hill (2003)‚ green chemistry is “the use of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate substances hazardous to human health or the environment.” On a simpler note‚ this new approach to botanic life is making a large impact on nature and the environment. The improvements made by researchers studying green chemistry have been beneficial to the ecosystem because they are helping rid the atmosphere of any substances or chemicals at risk of damaging

Does wind speed affect the opening of stomata? I am exploring the effect of wind speeds in light and dark environments on transpiration. If the wind speed is high enough during the night time will this cause the opening of stomata and transpiration‚ even though it is against the plants bioloical clock to do so? I’ve got 3 different wind speeds on the fan and I’m keeping the temperature constant in both light/dark environments. Wind speed does not normally cause stomata to open. Indeed‚ high

Everyone knows that all things cost money‚ even the prohibition on marijuana! It costs the U.S. government about 13.7 billion dollars to keep the prohibition on marijuana. Marijuana is classified as a hallucinogenic drug and is considered a schedule one drug; some of the most dangerous drugs such as heroin‚ molly‚ acid‚ and many more. This drug category suggests that these drugs have no medical purpose even though marijuana is legal medically or recreationally in 28 states including D.C. Marijuana

FISH FARMING Fish farming is the principal form of aquaculture‚ while other methods may fall under mariculture. Fish farming involves raising fish commercially in tanks or enclosures‚ usually for food. A facility that releases young (juvenile) fish into the wild for recreational fishing or to supplement a species’ natural numbers is generally referred to as a fish hatchery. Worldwide‚ the most important fish species used in fish farming are carp‚ salmon‚ tilapia and catfish

Malthusian Theory in relation to the Caribbean According to Chinapoo et Al (2014)‚ Thomas Malthus’s Theory (1798)‚ claims that population growth is determined by certain natural laws and food supply was the main limit to population. He argued that population increases faster than the food supply and compared the way in which each increases. Malthus ’ theory of population can be used to explain the dynamics of the relationship between population and resources in less developed territories. Since the

technology used in production is highly innovative and ecological as the water used in the fish production is treated by a biofiltration system‚ to convert the ammonia from the fish into nitrates. These nitrates are then used as a fertilizer for the hydroponic lettuce production. This system has environmentally sustainable advantages through combining the production. The system is minimizes water use and loss whilst the vegetables are able to fully utilize the wastewater of the fish instead of being discharged

a reproducible and self-sustaining aquaponics system based on $100‚000 initial investor input. A functioning model will be created to prove the viability of a self contained and symbiotic relationship that combines hydroponic vegetable production with aquaculture production. Hydroponics is the farming of vegetables using only water and loose fill media instead of soil. Aquaculture is the farming of fish in a controlled and sustainable environment. Putting these two systems together provides a source

Northumberland Community Gardens believe that “No family should go without food”‚ and that communities should come together to help prevent hunger all over the world. We strive to remedy this social problem‚ by building natural powered and solar powered‚ hydroponic produce gardens‚ that make fruit and vegetables available to low income families; all year long. First off‚ there is a very strong need for a community garden‚ due to the high rate of poverty and lack of community resources; in Northumberland County
