Abstract

1292802 Insect or plant watering apparatus INTERIOR GARDENS Ltd 19 Sept 1969 [20 Sept 1968 44881/68 Headings A1B AID A1E and AIM Apparatus for conveying water and nutrients to naturally planted or potted plants comprises a container, the water in which reaches near to the roots of the plants along a plurality of cords via capillary action, the cords being tightly fastened through apertures in the container wall. In the first embodiment (see Fig. I) the container comprises a flexible pipe 11, preferably polythene having pairs of diametrically opposed holes 13 through which are tightly threaded lengths of asbestos or nylon cord, one for each pair of holes. Pipe 11 is connected to a water supply 14 and may comprise a branched or loop pipe system and is preferably buried beneath the soil near the plant roots. An electrically insulated heating element can be incorporated along the length of the pipe. Some of the cords may be wound around the pipe to create a humid atmosphere for the growing plants. In the second embodiment (see Fig. 4) the container comprises a flat bottomed ground resting container 41 with a central tube 44 attached to the base, a lid 42 and capillary cords 47 tightly threaded through apertures 46 in the container bottom. The plant to be nutured grows up through tube 44 its roots being proximal to the buried cords 47. The apparatus may also be used to supply breeding insects with soluble nutrients.
