Description

The present invention relates to a seedling breeding body used for planting seedlings in a flower bed such as a roadside of a park or a road.

  Conventionally, in flower beds such as parks and road shoulders, seedlings are replanted as public works (greening works) depending on the season.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an outline of a process from conventional sowing to planting.
Generally, when planting seedlings on flower beds such as the shoulders of parks and roads, as shown in Fig. 4, mainly (1) sowing (seeds) → (2) raising seedlings → (3) It is necessary to perform a four-step work process of potting → (4) planting.

  In the sowing process, culture soil dedicated to sowing is used, and in the potting process, culture soil dedicated to potting is used. Culture soil dedicated to sowing is soil that has been sterilized and sterilized with a small amount of fertilizer, and culture soil dedicated to potting is a soil that has a large amount of fertilizer and good water retention and drainage, and is a durable root when planting. Can make soil.

  Among the above-described work processes, the potting process often requires special attention because it is necessary to prepare a dedicated plastic pot or the like or use a dedicated culture soil. In addition, the planting process is a work process in which the ground is dug with a transplanting iron, the seedlings are extracted from the potted pots, and the extracted seedlings are planted on the ground. For this reason, there are problems that it takes time to get used to this work and the work time is long. That is, when seedlings are planted in flower beds such as parks or road shoulders, there is a problem that it is difficult to reduce costs in terms of work time and labor in the fixed planting process.

  As a technique for solving this problem, Patent Document 1 discloses a seedling pot composed of a combination of two halved members whose combined state is maintained by a coupling means. The halved member is integrally formed with a half-shaped lid portion that closes the upper part of the opening, and a hole portion is provided in the substantially central portion of the lid portion to guide the seedling stem portion. Moreover, the said seedling pot is provided with the flange of fixed width substantially horizontally in the full length of the outer periphery of the upper end of a half member.

  In addition, a dent is provided in the upper end part of the seedling pot described in Patent Document 1, and rainwater is collected in the dent to supply moisture to the seedling (paragraph 0029). However, since the depression provided at the upper end is small and the flange provided at the outer peripheral edge of the upper end is substantially horizontal, rainwater may not be sufficiently collected in the seedling. In this case, there is a problem that, for example, when the amount of precipitation is low, water supplied to the seedlings is insufficient, and the seedlings cannot be protected from drying.

Also, when the seedling pot is embedded in the ground from above a sheet material such as a weedproof sheet laid on the ground at the site of the greening work, the outer peripheral edge of the upper end of the half member even if the sheet material breaks Since the flange provided on the sheet retains the sheet material, the exposure of the ground is prevented and the generation of weeds is suppressed (paragraph 0031). However, when planting using a seedling pot described in Patent Document 1 without using a sheet material on a flower bed where the ground is uneven, since the flange is provided substantially horizontally, after planting, the ground and flange There is a problem that weeds are generated in the lower part of the flange due to sunlight entering between them. That is, there is a problem that weeds generated in the vicinity of the seedlings cannot be prevented.

  Hereinafter, the seedling raising compost formation body which is embodiment of this invention is demonstrated in detail with reference to drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a seedling growing compost forming body 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1A is a perspective view showing an appearance of the seedling growing compost forming body 100, and FIG. 1B is a cross-sectional view of the seedling growing compost forming body 100.

  The seed and seedling growing compost forming body 100 includes a mulching material (mulching part) 10, a compost forming part (main body part) 20, and a cell part 30.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the appearance when the mulching material 10, the compost forming part 20, and the cell part 30 constituting the seedling growing compost forming body 100 are disassembled.
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing a cross section of the seed and seedling growing compost forming body 100 when the seed and seedling growing compost forming body 100 is installed on the ground.

  The mulching material 10 is a cylindrical paper member that is hardened in a plastic shape using recycled paper as a raw material, and portions corresponding to an upper end surface and a lower end surface have a mortar-like concave shape. Moreover, the circular hole 10a is provided in the part (middle part) equivalent to the bottom part of the recessed parts 11 and 12 which are mortar shape. That is, the mulching material 10 is a concave lens-shaped paper member in which a circular hole 10a is provided in the concave portion. The mulching material 10 is basically composed of a biodegradable material such as recycled paper, but is preferably one that can be printed directly on the surface 11 a of the recess 11.

  Since the concave portion 11 of the mulching material 10 has a mortar shape that opens upward, rainwater that has fallen on the surface 11a of the concave portion 11 gathers in the central hole portion 10a and flows into the hole portion 10a. In this way, rainwater that has fallen on the surface 11a of the concave portion 11 can be collected and used as moisture to be supplied to the seedling 40, so that water shortage of the seedling 40 is prevented. Moreover, since the mulching material 10 is before being decomposed particularly when the sapling 40 requiring moisture is small, the effect of preventing the seedling 40 from lacking moisture is high. In addition, as long as it is a shape which can collect the rain water which fell on the surface 11a of the recessed part 11 in the center hole 10a, you may make it be other recessed shapes, such as bowl shape other than a mortar shape.

  Since the concave portion 12 of the mulching material 10 has a mortar shape that opens downward, it prevents the sunlight from entering between the mulching material 10 and the ground, and prevents seeds of weeds from entering and fixing. To prevent. As a result, weeds can be prevented from occurring in the lower part of the mulching material 10. That is, it is possible to prevent weeds generated in the vicinity of the seedling 40. Further, it is possible to prevent dripping of the seedling 40 due to rain water. In addition, when the seedling growing compost forming body 100 is inserted into the ground, a space 12b is formed by the ground and the recess 12 as shown in FIG. For this reason, there exists a heat retention effect | action and the ground temperature of the vicinity of the seedling 40 can be kept near growth suitable temperature. Furthermore, since the ground is covered with the concave portion 12, evaporation of moisture from the ground is prevented, and drying of the soil in the vicinity of the seedling 40 (the lower portion of the mulching material 10) is prevented.

  Even if the seedling-growing compost forming body 100 is used without using a sheet material on the flower bed where the ground is uneven, the outer peripheral edge 12a of the recess 12 bites in accordance with the unevenness of the ground. The outer peripheral edge 12a is in close contact with the ground. For this reason, after planting, the sun light is prevented from entering the lower portion of the mulching material 10, and weed seeds are prevented from newly entering and fixing in the lower portion of the mulching material 10. In addition, as long as the outer periphery 12a of the recessed part 12 and the ground can be closely_contact | adhered, you may make it be other recessed shapes other than a mortar shape. Further, the mulching material 10 may have an appropriate flexibility, and the outer peripheral edge 12a of the recess 12 may be arbitrarily deformable according to the unevenness of the ground.

  On the surface 11 a of the recess 11, a silver coating portion 13 and an insecticide coating portion 14 are provided. Each of the silver coating portion 13 and the insecticide coating portion 14 is formed in a ring shape around the hole 10a. Further, a dropout prevention portion 15 is provided in the hole portion 10 a of the mulching material 10.

  The silver application part 13 is the part which apply | coated the silver which an aphid dislikes in a ring shape. The silver coating portion 13 is given a silver color by using a paint or ink that is less harmful to the environment.

  The insecticide application part 14 is a part where an insecticide is applied in a ring shape. When the seedling 40 is small, it is easily affected by pests. Therefore, by applying an insecticide to the insecticide application unit 14, the influence of the pests when the seedling 40 is small is prevented. The insecticide application unit 14 is coated with an insecticide that can prevent the effects of pests. Further, instead of applying the insecticide, the insecticide application unit 14 may be infiltrated with a pest remover such as wood vinegar.

  The dropout prevention part 15 is a part for preventing the dropout when the compost forming part 20 is inserted into the hole 10a. Specifically, the diameter of the hole portion 10a is made smaller than the diameter of the upper end surface 20a of the compost forming portion 20, and the dropout prevention portion 15 is provided with a pleated shape with a cut. Accordingly, when the compost forming portion 20 is inserted into the hole 10a, the compost forming portion 20 is in close contact with the hole 10a, and the mulching material 10 and the compost forming portion 20 are prevented from being separated. The compost forming part 20 can be joined.

  On the surface 11 a of the recess 11, a description of the name and nature of the flower related to the seedling 40 is printed. Or the photograph etc. which show the growth process of the flower regarding the seedling 40 are printed, the way of raising, the notes, etc. regarding the seedling 40 are printed. Thus, by displaying information about the seedling 40 on the surface 11 a of the recess 11, a person who has seen the seedling 40 can easily grasp the type of the seedling 40 and enjoy the growth of the seedling 40. Can do. In addition, when a plurality of types of seedlings are planted in one flower bed, the explanation is attached to each seedling, so that mistakes in planting can be prevented and management after planting can be facilitated. In addition, the advertisement information of the company can be written on the surface 11a. Thus, if the surface 11a of the recess 11 is used as a corporate advertisement, advertising revenue can be obtained. In addition, a part of surface 11a of the recessed part 11 can be used for description regarding the seedling 40, and the remaining part can be used as an advertisement.

  As the material of the mulching material 10, a solidified plastic material made from bark compost, chips, straw, fallen leaves, como, humus, charcoal, animal and plant residues, bark of conifers used for bark mulch, etc. is used (plant plastic) You may do it. Thus, as the material of the mulching material 10, biodegradable substances such as paper and bark compost, or substances that are decomposed by sunlight are used, so that the mulching after 3-6 months when the plant grows. The material 10 itself is decomposed and naturally returns to the soil. For this reason, when the seedling 40 is small, drying can be prevented, weeds can be prevented from being generated, and the growth of the seedling can be promoted. Since the plant is decomposed when it grows, environmental pollution can be prevented. . In addition, when the characters of the mulching material 10 cannot be printed due to the material of the mulching material 10, the paper is pasted on the surface 11a of the recess 11 and the characters or the like are printed on the pasted paper. To apply.

  The compost forming part 20 is a double-structured compressed culture soil mainly composed of bark compost, chips, humus, peat moss, charcoal, etc., having a conical shape with a pointed lower end (tip). The first forming part 21, the second forming part 22, the cell part storage part 23, and the expansion part 24 are configured. In addition, since the root of the seedling 40 is thin near the tip and grows and grows widely near the upper end near the leaf, the shape of the compost forming part 20 is preferably a cone or a triangular pyramid. However, the shape of the compost forming portion 20 may be any other shape as long as the shape is suitable for inserting the lower end portion into the ground. For example, a polygonal pyramid shape such as a triangular pyramid or a quadrangular pyramid, or a shape obtained by obliquely cutting the lower end portion of the cylindrical body may be used. In this way, when the shape of the compost forming portion 20 is changed to another shape, the shape of the hole 10 a of the mulching material 10 is matched with the shape of the upper end portion of the compost forming portion 20. The compost forming part 20 is formed by increasing the compression ratio as it proceeds from the upper end part side to the front end side. As a material for the compost forming unit 20, basically, a material that damages the growth of the roots of the seedling 40 is not used.

  Specifically, the material of the compost forming part 20 is a mixture of bark compost, chips, humus, peat moss, charcoal, etc. mixed with red soil (clay-based soil) and compressed. In addition, the mixing ratio of the 1st formation part 21 and the 2nd formation part 22 uses a mutually different ratio. In addition, a material that easily expands and a material that promotes root growth are used for the expansion portion 24 that serves as an anchor.

  Bark compost is an organic soil improver made by utilizing the action of microorganisms, mainly made from hardwood or coniferous bark. Peat moss is a horticultural and cultivated soil collected from a body stack in which herbaceous plants in cold areas such as moss are deposited.

  At the upper end portion of the first forming portion 21, a cell portion storage portion 23 for storing the cell portion 30 is provided. Moreover, since the 1st formation part 21 is a part close | similar to the germinated seedling 40, it must not increase fertilizer as a component of the 1st formation part 21, but it is rather than the cell part 30 so that the root of the seedling 40 may spread easily. Increase the amount of fertilizer and mix a small amount of soil such as red soil.

  The second forming part 22 is formed so as to cover the first forming part 21. Moreover, since the 2nd formation part 22 is a part which needs to stretch a strong root when the seedling 40 is becoming large, it is preferable to make culture soil close to normal soil as a main component. However, since the compression ratio of the culture soil is increased as it goes to the tip, the vicinity of the tip of the second forming portion 22 is composed of a highly elastic component such as peat moss and bark compost.

  The cell portion storage portion 23 is a hole provided in the upper end portion of the first forming portion 21 that stores the cell portion 30, and has a shape substantially similar to the outer shape of the cell portion 30.

  The expansion part 24 is a part with a high compression rate at the tip part of the second forming part 22 and has a higher expansion rate than other parts when water is absorbed. For this reason, when the seedling raising compost forming body 100 is inserted into the ground, the compost forming portion 20 absorbs moisture of the soil, and each portion expands due to this absorption. In this case, as shown by a broken line in FIG. 2, since the expansion rate of the expansion part 24 is particularly high, the expanded expansion part 24 serves as an anchor, and the seedling-growing compost forming body 100 is pulled out by wind or the like. To prevent. Moreover, since the seedling raising compost forming body 100 is directly inserted into the ground, the compression ratio of the inflatable portion 24 is increased to increase the strength, and the tip portion is prevented from being broken.

  The cell part 30 is for putting flower seeds and vegetable seeds, the main component of which is peat moss, which is low in fertilizer components and rich in water retention. As a method of putting the seedling 40 into the cell unit 30, a method of setting the germinated seedling into culture soil (left side 30 in FIG. 2), and directly setting seeds on the culture soil, giving a lot of water to grow the seedling There are two methods: the method (right side 30 in FIG. 2). In addition, when storing the cell part 30, it shall be dried and sterilized so that there is no problem in germination of seeds due to the influence of mold and moisture on the seeds of flowers. In addition, the numerical value of the height and diameter of the cell part 30 shown in FIG. 2 is an example.

  As shown above, by making the seedling growing compost forming body 100 into a three-layer structure, a series of operations of “seeding → potting → planting” in the planting operation can be integrated. For this reason, the working time, labor, etc. of fixed planting work can be reduced. The cell part 30 is a part where the germination of the seedlings 40 becomes worse when there is fertilizer, and the first forming part 21 is a part that gradually applies fertilizers to the seedlings 40 to apply force to the roots of the seedlings 40, The second forming portion 22 is a portion that increases the fertilizer ratio than the first forming portion 21 and further applies the force to the roots of the seedling 40. For this reason, the three-layer structure shown above is optimal as the structure of the seedling raising compost forming body 100. In addition, about the structure of the seedling raising compost formation body 100, if it is set as the component ratio of the fertilizer shown above, you may make it be a structure of one layer, two layers, or four layers or more.

Next, the manufacturing method of the seedling breeding compost forming body 100 will be described.
A case where the compost forming part 20 is manufactured by mixing red clay with bark compost will be described. First, the red soil is melted into a paste and the red soil is entangled with bark compost. Subsequently, the bark compost entangled with red soil is dried and compressed while applying heat to form the first forming portion 21 (heating / drying compression method). Subsequently, similarly to the above, the bark compost entangled with red soil is dried and compressed while applying heat to form the second forming portion 22 around the first forming portion 21 (heating / drying compression method). Thus, in each manufacturing process, the seeds of weeds or soil can be sterilized by heating the bark compost tangled with red soil. Moreover, it is necessary that the soil does not hinder root growth by irrigation and rainwater. In the same manner as described above, the first forming part 21 and the second forming part 22 are formed by putting a bark compost entangled with red soil into a mold, and the first forming part 21 and the second forming part 22 thus formed are formed. The compost forming part 20 may be manufactured by joining the two, or the compost forming part 20 may be manufactured using another manufacturing method.

Next, the usage method of the seedling raising compost formation body 100 is demonstrated.
When planting the seedling 40 on a flower bed such as a shoulder of a park or a road, the tip of the seedling growing compost forming body 100 is inserted into a predetermined position in the flower bed. Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 3, the seedling raising compost forming body 100 is inserted into the ground until the outer peripheral edge 12 a of the recess 12 is in close contact with the ground and there is no gap between the outer peripheral edge 12 a and the ground. In this case, the description or the like described on the surface 11a of the recess 11 is inserted so that a person passing near the flower bed can easily see.

  According to the present embodiment, since there is less culture soil (for sowing and potting), it is possible to save labor for raising seedlings and potting. Moreover, since insecticidal / bactericidal agents are applied, pests and the like can be removed, and management of seedlings is easy. Furthermore, when planting the seedling 40 on a flower bed such as a roadside of a park or road, it can be pushed in with a single push, so the cost in terms of work time and labor can be reduced. In addition, the mulching material does not remain on the surface when the flower bed is replanted, and generation of waste can be prevented.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, when planting the seedling 40 on a flower bed such as a roadside of a park or road, it is easy to plant and weeds grow around the seedling 40 while considering the environment. It is possible to prevent the seedling 40 from drying.

  Moreover, according to this Embodiment, when planting the seedling 40 in flower beds, such as a park or a road shoulder, planting is easy and it can enjoy visually growing of the seedling 40 after planting.

  In addition, by changing the mixing ratio of the cells and the compressed culture soil, the present embodiment can be applied to planted trees and the like, and can also be applied to a greening work.

Next, Example 1 which is one example of the present invention will be described.
In the seedling growing compost forming body 100, paper is used as the mulching material 10, bark compost and red soil are used as the first forming part 21 of the compost forming part 20, and bark compost and red soil are used as the second forming part 22. Peat moss is used as the cell unit 30. In addition, the mixing ratio of the bark compost and red soil used for the 1st formation part 21 and the 2nd formation part 22 is changed.

  Further, in the seedling growing compost forming body 100, the cell part 30 is a cylinder having a height of 25 mm and a diameter of 15 mm, the diameter of the upper end surface of the compost forming part 20 is 50 mm, the height is 100 mm, and the diameter of the mulching material 10 is 120 mm. . Further, begonia was planted in the cell portion 30 as a seedling. As other seedlings, marigold, salvia, pansy, sunflower and the like can be planted in the flower bed seedling, and cabbage, cabbage, carrot, radish, watermelon, tomato, eggplant and the like can be planted in the vegetable seedling.

  When seedlings are planted on flower beds such as the shoulders of parks and roads using the seedling growing compost forming body 100, the seedling growing compost forming body 100 is pushed into the flower bed with one push, and as shown in FIG. Can be planted. For this reason, planting work is easy.
