Moreover, according to one form of the cocoon cultivation case according to the present invention, the fungus bed block is a shiitake cultivation medium in which fruit bodies are generated due to the spread of mycelia of shiitake mushrooms. it can.

According to the cultivation case for straw of the present invention, the flow of air from the outside world does not substantially affect the internal space, and accordingly, the humidity can be suitably maintained. Moreover, it is a simple form without the structure of a ventilation fan or the like.
For this reason, the fruit body of the camellia sprouted from the fungus bed in artificial cultivation of straw can be suitably grown, and a particularly remarkable effect is achieved that an inexpensive case for cultivation of straw can be provided.

Hereinafter, an example of the best mode of the case for cultivation of straw according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view showing a case for cultivation of straw according to the present invention. 2 is a perspective view showing the overall shape of the case of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the shape of the fungus bed. Hereinafter, shiitake cultivation cases will be described.
Numeral 10 is a case for cultivating persimmons, which contains a fungus bed block 30 in which a mycelium of persimmon is spread in a medium mainly composed of vegetative materials such as sawdust, and germinated from the fungus bed block 30. The required closed internal space 12 in which the fruiting body 33 can be grown is formed. As shown in FIG. 1, one fungus bed block 30 is accommodated in the internal space 12.

In this embodiment, a case main body 16 having a bottomed container shape and a lid 17 for opening and closing the upper surface opening of the case main body 16 are provided by a case constituent material 15 such as a wall material forming the internal space 12. The internal space 12 is formed by being closed by the lid portion 17.
The depth dimension of the case body 16 is set to be longer than the height dimension of the bacteria bed block 30. Since the case body 16 is thus deeply provided, the air in the case body 16 is not easily ventilated even when the lid 17 is opened. Therefore, even if the lid portion 17 is opened and closed, the humidity in the internal space 12 can be suitably maintained.
In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the lid 17 is opened and closed in a door shape by a hinge 18. Reference numeral 19 denotes a hook portion, which is a constituent member that can be engaged with both the case main body portion 16 and the lid portion 17 to lock the closed state.

Reference numerals 20a, 20b, and 20c are breathable portions that can breathe and can maintain humidity, so that the fruit body 33 is preferably grown, and the flow of air from the outside world substantially enters the internal space. It consists of gaps or small holes that are so small that they will not be affected.
The air permeable portion 20a is a small gap portion generated in a portion where the case main body portion 16 and the lid portion 17 are fitted. The air permeable portion 20b is a small hole provided in the lid portion 17 into which the end of the handle 21 is fitted. Further, the air permeable portion 20c is a gap portion generated in the portion where the hinge 18 is provided. In addition, the form of the air permeable part 20a, 20b, 20c is not limited to this. For example, other forms such as a filter form are conceivable, and at least one form among them may be provided.

That is, the container shown in FIG.1 and FIG.2 is a box which does not have special airtightness but creates a closed space to such an extent that airflow from outside does not enter. According to this, regarding the growth of the fruit body 33 of the cocoon, the cocoon cultivation case 10 is provided with appropriate ventilation conditions.
This case is suitable for cultivation of cocoons because it is better for the growth of cocoon bodies 33 to have no air flow. In other words, it is preferable to provide a space where there is minimal ventilation for supplying oxygen and no airflow. In addition, the higher the humidity, the better the oxygen, but it needs to be breathable. This has been clarified by the inventor through artificial cultivation of persimmon for many years, and the present invention has been made based on the characteristics of the persimmon.

In addition, all or part of the case constituent material 15 such as a wall material forming the internal space 12 of the present embodiment has transparency that transmits light. In addition, the transparency is good to have transparency so that the inside can be suitably visually recognized from the outside. That is, it does not require high transparency. Moreover, a colored transparent state may be sufficient. According to this, it is possible to suitably observe or appreciate the growth of the straw, including the case where the straw is cultivated in a general household.
Moreover, irradiation with light is also an important requirement for the growth of the fruit body 33, and the growth can be favorably promoted. By appropriately irradiating light at an appropriate time, the mycelium is changed from vegetative growth to reproductive growth to generate fruit bodies 33, and the shade is colored. The intensity of the light may be such a light amount that light entering through the window during the day indirectly illuminates the room. In addition, in order to promote the growth of the fruit body 33 of the cocoon, it may be sufficient if light can be transmitted, and there may be a case where the transparency is not necessarily required to visually recognize the inside.

Moreover, it is good for the case component 15 to be provided with the material which does not have air permeability. Specifically, it may be provided by a plastic material. Transparency can be easily obtained by using a plastic material. In addition, the plastic material is suitable because it is waterproof.
As the plastic material, polypropylene, polyethylene or the like can be used. Further, it can be produced in large quantities and at low cost by a molding apparatus such as an injection molding apparatus.
In addition, as a non-breathable material, for example, a glass material or a corrugated cardboard whose surface is coated with a plastic film can be used.
Thus, high humidity can be suitably maintained by being comprised with the material which does not have air permeability.

Moreover, it is good for the case inner surface formed of the case structural material 15 to be provided in the smooth surface which is easy to dew condensation. The condensed moisture stays in the case and circulates in the internal space 12. According to this, the humidity of the internal space 12 can be maintained at a high level close to 100%, and the growth of the fruit body of the cocoon can be favorably promoted.
By the way, in the case of fungus bed cultivation, the fungus bed block 30 contains sufficient moisture. For this reason, in the case of cultivation in the case 10 for cultivation of cocoons in which the entry and exit of air is restricted and high humidity can be maintained, the supply of moisture is not required in principle for the period during which the fruiting body grows. In the case of this embodiment as well, it is not necessary to supply moisture later as long as the lid portion 17 is not frequently opened. Therefore, cultivation management is extremely easy, and can be easily grown even in ordinary households.

As shown in FIG. 3, the shape of the fungus bed block 30 of the present embodiment is a kamaboko shape in which a cylinder is divided in half. The fungus bed block 30 has a width of 130 mm, a height of 65 mm, and a depth of about 75 mm, and is suitable for use in the cultivation case 10 for strawberries provided with a width of 210 mm, a height of 140 mm, and a depth of about 160 mm. Is housed in.
According to this, the internal space 12 is a substantially minimum space in which the child entity 33 can be preferably grown. For this reason, moisture can be dissipated and rapid temperature changes can be prevented, even the flow caused by air convection can be suppressed, and the fruit body 33 can be suitably grown. Here, in order to make the internal space 12 preferably the minimum space, the height dimension is equal to the horizontal dimension (width or depth) in accordance with the form of the stably placed fungus bed block 30. Or it is preferable that it is short. This is because the child body 33 extends in all other directions except the lower side. As described above, if the internal space 12 is set to the minimum space, the conveyance and management can be suitably performed.
In addition, the shape of the fungus bed block 30 and the case 10 for cultivation of straw is not limited to this, and may be a square or a columnar shape. However, in order to stably place these shapes, in this embodiment, the horizontal dimension is set longer than the height direction.

Reference numeral 40 denotes a tray, which is formed in a basin shape so that it can receive water as well as the microbial bed block 30 is placed therein, and is provided in the internal space 12. According to the tray 40, there is an advantage that the position of the fungus bed block 30 in the internal space 12 can be easily changed in accordance with the growth of the cocoon.
Further, as shown in FIG. 4, a cooling agent may be disposed between the tray 40 and the bottom 16 a of the case main body 16. According to this, it is possible to cool the internal space 12 in a hot season, and it is possible to prevent the growth failure of the cocoon due to high temperature. As this cold-retaining agent, for example, a cold-reserving agent pack 42 in which a superabsorbent polymer containing water is sealed in a plastic bag may be used by freezing.
Furthermore, legs 22 may be provided on the bottom surface 16b of the case main body 16 in order to reduce the ground contact area with the surface to be disposed and to improve the cold insulation.

The fungus bed block 30 of this embodiment is a shiitake culture medium in which the mycelium of shiitake mushrooms spread and the fruit bodies 33 are generated, but the present invention is not limited to this.
The fungus bed block packed in the cultivation bottle may be a target to be accommodated in the cocoon cultivation case 10 of the present invention. What is necessary is just to put the cultivation bottle into the case 10 for cultivation of straw and to grow the straw.
Also, a plurality of types of bags may be put in one case. For example, shiitake mushrooms, flat mushrooms, nameko, maiko, etc. may be selected as appropriate and packed in one case. According to this, it is possible to enjoy by observing or appreciating the growth process of various kinds of cocoons.

Next, a shiitake cultivation method using the koji cultivation case 10 described above will be described.
Place the fungus bed block 30 on which the fruit body germinates in the cocoon cultivation case 10, close the lid 17, and in principle leave it in a place where it is not exposed to direct light. Harvest when it becomes. Usually it can be harvested for about a week, although it depends on the cultivation temperature. Note that the fruiting body 33 shown in FIG. 1 is in the middle of growth, and fills the internal space 12 by the harvest time.
The fruit body of shiitake mushroom can be cultivated if the temperature changes in the range of 5 ° C to 25 ° C, but the optimum temperature is in the range of 10 ° C to 20 ° C. In addition, even if it becomes 5 degrees C or less, if it is a fixed range, even if growth stops, a mycelium will not be killed. Therefore, it can be cultivated indoors except in summer. In summer, if placed in a refrigerator, damage due to high temperatures can be prevented, and growth can be appropriately suppressed. Moreover, it can be suitably cultivated indoors by appropriately using the above-mentioned cryogen.
Normally, it is not necessary to supply water, but if the inside of the case has dried, a little water may be put into the bottom of the case. Further, when the fruiting body becomes larger, the lid portion 17 may be opened occasionally for ventilation.

Next, another embodiment (Example 1) of the case for cultivation of straw will be described with reference to FIG.
This case 11 for cultivation of straw is in the form of a transparent bucket. Even in this configuration, the internal space 13 and the air permeable portion 50 described above are provided, the case component 55 of the main body portion 56 and the lid portion 57 is transparent, and the fungus bed block 31 is provided in the internal space 13. Contained.
This embodiment is different from the embodiments described in FIGS. 1 to 4 in that the cultivation case 11 for strawberries has a substantially cylindrical inner space 13 and the fungus bed block 31 is cylindrical. However, the basic configuration is common and produces the same effect.

  The present invention has been described in various ways with preferred embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and it goes without saying that many modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. That is.
