Freight Farms Allow Anyone to Grow Food Anywhere in Recycled Shipping Containers ~ The Boston-based founders of Freight Farms have found an urban farming solution that can work anywhere and for just about anyone. These amazing recycled shipping containers are outfitted with climate and system controls that allow even the most inexperienced person to grow virtually any kind of produce at any time of year. A subsistence farmer? Grab one shipping container. The neighborhood green-grocer? Why not grab a few? In any case, pesticide and herbicide-free freight farms can be stacked anywhere, creating an scalable, sustainable solution to our pressing food challenges. Freight farms have numerous benefits. In addition to being very easy to implement, they increase the amount of fresh food available in any given city, enhance the local economy, and keep food miles to an absolute minimum.
You must use the 1980s optical pipes and omni-directional sunlight collectors and sunlight dispersers that were already well developed in the 80s. Solar energy storage must be reliant either on Thomas Alva Edison's Iron-Nickel batteries or using a magnetically levitated-stabilized flywheel storage that uses a magnetic clutch to turn an external simplified double-pole dynamo to generate D.C power for the U.V-free pink magenta artificial lighting.
The flywheels will be spinned by a contact-free induction A.C motor powered by a single pole dynamo which is built-in in the double-pole dynamo.
As for growing the crops they must combine several hydroponic technologies and non-hydroponic technologies in a single system. like the original non-circulating Wroclow hydroponics developed in Poland during the 50s and Cold War era, the Bengal hydroponics developed in the late 40s and early 50s, the Mittleider method developed in the 50s and 60s,
In 1929, W. F. Gericke developed the water culture-based hydroponics method.
In the late 1920s and early 1930s some unknown inventor developed the HYBRID SOIL-HYDROPONIC SYSTEM in which a bed of mesh supported soil is used to grow a perennial pasture grass and then a perennial living mulch in order to take advantage the the 10,000 year advantage of soil cultivation wherein a farmer can make a mistake and the crops will still survive and produce a crop for SOIL IS A POWERFUL NUTRIENT REGULATOR AND BALANCER and the same inventor combined it with water culture containing dissolved rock dust powder to saturation point and adding an inch or two of undissolved rock dust powder at the bottom of the water culture tank to act as an emergency supply just in case the rock dust supply was cutoff then all he has to do is add water periodically as the plants consumes and transpires it into the air.
The same power sources as mentioned can power the Peltier Effect-based condensers to convert plant transpired water into condensed liquid water to be recycled again.
These shipping containers must be sandblasted with a dry ice sand blasting machine to remove all rust and dirt, then air blasted and vaccum cleaned. The electrostatically sprayed with a zinc-silicon-tin 80/10/10 galvanizing alloy to ensure all metal surfaces are galvanized, and then painted with a marine grade industrial strength-militarily hardened tough epoxy paint primer used in military life-support systems and contains colloidialized silver atomic particles.
