Apparatus and Method for Transforming Bottles Into Grow Light Terrariums

摘要

The present invention is an apparatus, which makes it easier to implement bottle based terrariums using a grow light, by employing multiple side clip pairs, ideally shaped to interface with the curvature of the bottle, that join the upper and lower sides of a cut bottle, and a cable feeding mechanism that allows the grow light's height to be adjusted, while blocking moisture from dissipating through the mouth of the bottle, comprised of a slitted plug with a channel for the cable. The grow light also features control circuitry to set and adjust automatic lighting thresholds and methods to determine ambient lighting levels.

主权项

1. A terrarium assembly kit for use with two roughly cylindrical terrarium halves with similar diameter and corresponding edges, a top half having a narrow opening opposite its corresponding edge, the kit comprising:
a. at least one joining clip; b. a stopper sized to fit in the narrow opening, the stopper further comprising an axial channel and a slit extending therefrom to a perimeter of the stopper; and c. a light source operatively attached to a cable, the cable having a diameter such that the cable may be inserted into the axial channel; wherein the two terrarium halves are joined by placing the corresponding edges inside the at least one joining clips and the terrarium is sealed by placing the stopper inside the narrow opening of the top half with the cable positioned in the axial channel in a manner to leave the light source inside the terrarium.
