KITCHENER, Ontario, Nov. 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- James E. Wagner Cultivation Corporation (“JWC” or the “Corporation”) (TSX VENTURE: JWCA), is pleased to announce that it has filed an application for a patent on its next-generation aeroponic technology, named GrowthSTORM™ Dual Droplet System. The Corporation believes that its technology represents a material advancement in the field of aeroponics, presenting a more ideal environment for advanced indoor cultivation of agricultural products.

JWC believes that its GrowthSTORM™ System offers significant advantages over other cultivation techniques and the Dual Droplet modification is a further advancement over existing GrowthSTORM™ technology. Through the use of two separate nutrient solutions, delivered through two distinct systems and housed within a single enclosure, the GrowthSTORM™ Dual Droplet System achieves a better balance of air and water at the root zone, and a more controlled delivery of nutrients. This results in significant improvements in plant health, in all measurable categories. JWC plans to use the GrowthSTORM™ Dual Droplet System in its existing cultivation facility, JWC 1, and the new full-scale production facility, JWC 2. Additionally, the GrowthSTORM™ Dual Droplet System will be made available to other agriculture companies in Canada, under a licensing arrangement, for use in the commercial cultivation of cannabis and other crops.

“We believe that the GrowthSTORM™ Dual Droplet System is a substantial advancement in the field of aeroponic technology. Our unique approach establishes a new benchmark for aeroponic cultivators and firmly establishes JWC as one of the foremost aeroponic companies.” Nathan Woodworth, President and CEO.
