Claims21
A method for improving plant growth, said method comprising:
- (a) providing a kit having a plant with at least one portion of the plant contained by at least one of a bag and pot filled with a growth media, and including an active polymer forming the at least one of the bag and pot;
- (b) touching at least one part of the active polymer to the plant;
- (c) growing said plant;
- and
- wherein the active polymer comprises one or more minerals suspended, embedded, or otherwise incorporated in a polymer matrix, the active polymer is operable to absorb light, convert the absorbed light into infrared light, and emit the infrared light, and wherein the one or more minerals comprises silicon carbide present in a ratio of at least 3:2;
- wherein said plant exhibits improved growth compared to a control plant grown without said active polymer.

A method of growing a plant or plant part thereof comprising:
- providing a kit in a form of a plant surrounded by growth media with an active polymer material containing the plant and growth media;
- positioning the plant or part thereof touching the active polymer material, wherein the active polymer material is operable to absorb light, convert the absorbed light into infrared light, and emit the infrared, and wherein the one or more minerals comprises silicon carbide present in a ratio of at least 3:2, and
- growing the plant, wherein said plant exhibits improved growth compared to a control plant grown without said active polymer.
