My background is in pharmaceuticals and orthopedic implants, and I've always been a tinkerer at heart. I designed the system because I was using a fixed ScrOG with 3 or four different strains. The fixed ScrOG made plants hard to manage. This makes them portable and individual. Easier to take care of. EDIT: added background info

This is a great question, thanks! It is designed for one plant and can be used over and over. Imagine a room full that are all portable on wheels, rolling from veg to flower room. etc. Prices are on the website. Vegetation time and flower time are no different than growing like it normally grows (like a xmas tree). It just doubles the yield in about half the space it normally takes. Harvest is a breeze.

I just wanted to make one more point here. There is a trend toward vertical farming for commercial food production as well as commercial cannabis production. Population growth, urbanization, cost per square foot of space and desire for efficiency are the drivers. The cost of space in Denver has gone through the roof as demand for cannabis cultivation space has grown. With the advent of powerful LED lighting that burns cool, growers are thinking in terms of using vertical space (several layers high). So reducing the height of the plant is critical to get more plants into the available space, ie cubic feet, cubic meters. My white widows were 29" tall from floor to top of canopy. You can stack a lot of those is a 30' tall facility. You can also move them and manage them unlike a free growing plant.
“A 90,000-square-foot facility is really 150,000 of growing space,” says Hardej. quoted from this article
