Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bottom water supply pot for horticulture, in which plants are less likely to cause root rot, water in a water storage section can be reliably supplied to the end, and water can be easily replenished in the water storage section of an outer pot.
SOLUTION: By using a water absorbing rod 3 made of felt or resin which is hard to absorb water, it is prevented that water is supplied too much to a plant, a polypot 7 in which a plant is planted is fitted into an inner pot 2, and a water storage unit 5 and a polypot 7 are fitted. By creating a space between them, it is possible to prevent root rot, and by bringing the water absorption rod 3 into contact with the bottom surface of the water storage section of the outer pot 1, the water in the water storage section 5 can be reliably supplied to the end, and the outer pot can be supplied to the end. By making 1 transparent or translucent so that the water level of the water storage unit 5 can be visually confirmed from the outside of the outer pot 1, water can be easily replenished to the water storage unit 5 without removing the plant from the outer pot 1.

Description

The present invention relates to a horticultural pot using a bottom water supply system.

The bottom water supply method is very rational because it can supply as much water as the planted plant needs, and if the capacity of the water storage section is increased, long-term watering becomes unnecessary and the labor of irrigation can be saved. It can be said that it is a water supply system. In the conventional bottom water supply type pot, a method of sucking up water by using a water absorption string is adopted for water supply. When using a water-absorbing string, there were cases where the plant sucked up too much water and caused root rot, or the water-absorbing string stuck to the bottom of the pot and could not supply water well. (See Patent Document 1).

The present invention aims to develop a bottom water supply type horticultural viewing pot that can reliably supply water to plants in the water storage section, can easily supply water without getting your hands dirty, and is resistant to root rot. be.

The present invention is configured by combining an outer pot 1, an inner pot 2, and a water absorbing rod 3. For water supply, a water absorbing rod 3 made of felt, synthetic fiber, or synthetic resin, which is a material that is less likely to absorb water than a water absorbing string, is used. The inner pot 2 is a conical pot with a bottom, and has a slit 8 on the foot 6 side. A water absorbing rod 3 is inserted into the bottom of the polypot 7 in which the plant is planted, the polypot 7 is fitted into the inner pot 2, and the inner pot 2 is further fitted into the outer pot 1 to be fixed. The outer bowl 1 is made of transparent or translucent resin or glass, and has three pairs of protrusions 4 on the inner bottom. The problem is solved by making the water absorbing rod 3 come into contact with the bottom surface of the water storage portion of the outer pot 1 in a state where the outer pot 1 and the inner pot 2 are fixed.

By using the water absorbing rod 3 which is hard to bend instead of the water absorbing string, it is possible to prevent the water absorbing string from sticking to the inner wall of the outer pot 1 and not being able to absorb water until the end. Since water is gradually supplied to the roots of the plants inside the polypot 7 by the capillary phenomenon through the water absorbing rod 3, there is less concern about root rot. By bringing the water absorption rod 3 into contact with the bottom surface of the water storage portion 5 of the outer pot 1, water is supplied into the polypot 7 until the water in the water storage portion 5 is completely exhausted. Even if the outer pot 1 and the inner pot 2 are not fixed to each other, they are supported by the foot of the inner pot 2 and the water absorbing rod 3, and a space can be secured between the water storage part of the outer pot 1 and the plant. The roots of the plant do not come into direct contact with the water in the water storage section 5, so there is no concern about root rot. Further, since the inner pot 2 is supported by the three pairs of protrusions 4 on the inner bottom portion of the outer pot 1, there is no concern that the inner pot 2 is laterally displaced and tilted. For water supply, the inner pot 2 is not pulled out from the outer pot 1, the root of the plant is directly irrigated, and the water flowing out from the bottom of the polypot 7 is stored in the water storage section 5. By doing this, water can be easily supplied without dripping water or getting your hands dirty when watering. Since the outer bowl 1 is made of a transparent or translucent material and the water level of the water storage unit 5 can be visually confirmed from the outside, there is no need to worry about overfilling the water.

A water absorbing rod 3 is inserted into the bottom of the polypot 7 in which the plant is planted, the polypot 7 is fitted into the inner pot 2, and the inner pot 2 is further fitted into the outer pot 1 to be fixed. As shown in FIG. 3, the inner pot 2 may be a simple one in which a water-resistant sheet-like material such as resin is rolled into a conical shape. The water level of the water storage section is set so that there is a space between the pot supported by the three pairs of protrusions on the inner bottom of the outer pot 1, the foot 6 of the inner pot 2, and the water absorbing rod 3, and the water storage section 5. , Hold down to a position lower than the position of the pot. By installing the water absorption rod 3 so as to come into contact with the inner bottom portion of the outer pot 1, the water absorption rod 3 is gradually supplied to the inner pot 2 by the capillary phenomenon until the water in the water storage unit 5 is completely exhausted.
