Phototron Holdings Inc. (OTCBB: PHOT) zoomed in price 69.4% to 83 cents Tuesday, on the launch of a new hydroponic grow system for medical marijuana. Shares totaled 4,950, slightly higher than the daily average of 3,669.

The company, based in Woodland Hills, California, is the designer, manufacturer and seller of the PHOTOTRON Hydroponic Indoor Grow System, announced the launch of its newly designed Pro LED Phototron Grow System.

Phototron Board Chairman Craig Ellins was quoted in a June 28 press release as saying, “Our new patent pending Pro LED Phototron offers huge benefits to the home grower. Powered by energy efficient LED light, the unit delivers the equivalent of 1,000 watts of growing power while consuming only 320 watts of electricity. It saves energy, and drastically reduces heat.

“The unit contains both blue and red LED lighting,” Ellins continued. “Blue LED’s provide optimum light for the growing, while red LED’s shift bud formation into high gear. These features are important for the cultivation of medicinal herbs such as medicinal cannabis (medical marijuana) and chamomile.”

Traditional hydroponic growing can be highly complex and very expensive, requiring gardeners to assemble tents, buckets, containers, pumps, water chillers, fans, hoses, and reservoirs. The Phototron Pro LED delivers the high-efficiency growing that users expect from hydroponics without the high costs and complexity.

Phototron Holdings, Inc. designs and manufactures indoor mini-greenhouses capable of growing herbs, vegetables, flowers, fruits and terrestrial plants stronger and faster than traditional farming methods.

Greenshift Corp. (GERS) shares rise amid favorable patent news

Greenshift Corp. (OTCBB: GERS) saw its shares climb 100% to two-100ths of a cent, on word of another patent. Volume for the stock totaled 32 million shares.

The Alpharetta, Georgia-based waste management company announced Tuesday that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) has issued a notice of allowance for patent application number 12/559,136, titled “Method of Recovering Oil From Thin Stillage” (the “’136 Patent Application”).

According to Tuesday’s news release, the new notice of allowance is the second allowance issued by the USPTO on this particular application. To further strengthen its legal position, GreenShift previously requested the USPTO to withdraw the earlier allowance and review all of the materials submitted by all of the defendants in GreenShift’s current patent infringement litigation, including ICM, Flottwegg, and Westfalia in support of their invalidity arguments. The USPTO issued the new notice of allowance for the ‘136 Patent Application in spite of everything raised by each and every defendant, including ICM.

GreenShift believes that the allowance of the new patent by the USPTO is further substantial confirmation of the validity of GreenShift’s patents, and significantly increases the strength of GreenShift’s legal position in asserting its claims of infringement of its corn oil extraction patents.

The release quoted David Winsness, GreenShift’s Chief Technology Officer, as saying “We are aware of no practical method to recover corn oil from stillage that is not covered by our patents, including processes involving ‘staged’ recovery of oil from emulsion layers, recovery of oil following cold fermentation, and use of chemical additives.

“We welcome and expect innovation; however, we also expect any and all use of our technologies to be lawful.”

GreenShift Corporation develops and commercializes clean technologies that facilitate the more efficient use of natural resources.

About Penny Stocks

The term "penny stocks," also known as micro-cap equities, micro caps, small caps, pink sheets, refers to shares in a company that trades for less than $5.00. Most penny stocks trade on the OTCBB market and the pink sheet electronic quotation service. Penny Stocks can be very volatile and can see gains as much as 500% in a day. Volatility in penny stocks is also dangerous because penny stocks can come down as quickly as they go up. If you trade penny stocks based on stock picks, make sure to always do your due diligence on the companies you're considering, use stop loss orders, and book your profits when you are in a position to do so.
