Abstract

A cultivator device which may be used for the continuous or essentially continuous cultivation of a hydrophilic crop such as cress, primarily in the home, comprises an open-topped container for an aqueous growing medium, the container having rollers mounted for rotation at each of its two remote ends. A strip of water- absorbent material, arranged in use to contact water in the container, is disposed between the rollers and is movable between the rollers by rotation thereof. At least a portion of the path of the strip between the rollers is adjacent the open top of the container and the container includes means disposed below the strip to support the strip when wet along at least part of the length of that portion of its path. The material of the strip has a tear strength such that the strip is movable between the rollers without tearing when in a wet condition. <IMAGE>
