Description

  The present invention relates to a packaging moss sheet for distributing moss as a product and a method for producing the same.

  As a means of distributing moss as a product, moss is propagated in an appropriate medium in the conventional manner, the stock group is separated together with the medium containing the temporary root part of the moss, and stacked by interposing a paper partition so that it can be transplanted as it is It was compressed and distributed by cardboard box packaging (Patent Document 1 FIG. 5).

  Moreover, in patent document 1, in the merchandise distribution means of the moss which applied the cultivation means by the said transplanting method, distribution efficiency is very bad from problems, such as preservation of moss. In addition, the means to circulate the moss pieces corresponding to the sowing cultivation performed by chopping the cut moss finely on the ground as it is, bottled with appropriate moisture, rotted or dried too much by the moisture in the container As a means for improving the distribution of moss products, there is disclosed a means for adding oxygen gas to moss pieces and a water-containing dispersion and packing them in a container for distribution.

  Patent Document 2 discloses a sheet containing moss spores that are chopped into fine fibers by chopping the moss into a sheet with a coarse fiber density, and Patent Document 3 divides the moss into moisture, and adjusts the moisture. A moss product suitable for market distribution is disclosed by sandwiching it with water-resistant paper together with the cultured plant material.

  As a means for commercializing moss, the container packing means, which is disclosed in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, realizes long-term storage by enclosing oxygen, and is opened for partial use. There is a risk that the oxygen concentration is reduced and the container is rotted by moisture in the container, and the product itself is bulky for filling the container, which is not necessarily suitable for distribution.

  In addition, the combination of the moss strips with the medium sheet disclosed in Patent Documents 2 and 3 is supplied with moisture and air (oxygen) to the moss, so the moss propagates normally in a living state. If it is stored for a long time without being distributed as a product in a timely manner, the moss grows with time and becomes a moss sheet that has propagated in spots, resulting in a reduction in product value.

  Therefore, the present invention proposes a novel moss sheet that is easy to store for a long time while maintaining a certain quality and is suitable for distribution as a compact volume, and a method for producing the same.

The packaging moss sheet according to claim 1 of the present invention is a moss that has been formed to form a sheet-like colony in which temporary roots of moss plants are entangled with each other, so that the moss does not die and cannot be grown. The sheet body is housed and sealed in a packaging bag made of a non-permeable and non-permeable material .

  Moreover, the method for producing a packaged moss sheet according to claim 2 is a method of stripping a moss plant propagated in an appropriate medium from the medium as a colony, separating it into a sheet, sandwiching the colony sheet body with a net, Wash without separation, remove the medium, weed seeds and insects, then dry, moderately dried moss sheet body as it is or divided as appropriate, and sealed in a predetermined packaging bag It is characterized by being formed.

  Since the moss sheet produced by the above method is peeled off from the medium as moss colonies, the moss temporary roots are entangled with each other to form a single sheet. Therefore, the entanglement between the temporary roots is not released by washing, so that the sheet state is maintained and the handling is easy. Even if the moss is not killed by moderate drying and the growth of the moss is stopped, it is stored in a packaging bag in a sheet and sealed and left for a period of about one year. If placed and supplied with water, the moss will propagate.

  Therefore, the packaging moss sheet sealed in a packaging bag in an appropriately dried state can be distributed to the market as a moss product, because the medium such as soil and other extraneous materials are removed by washing, There is no export barrier in terms of prevention.

  The method for producing a packaged moss sheet according to claim 3 is the above cultivation method, particularly when the moss is propagated in a cultivation container of a desired shape and the sheet body is sandwiched by a net and washed. The packaged moss sheet produced by being housed in a frame corresponding to the shape corresponds to the shape of the cultivation container, so that product standardization can be easily realized.

  The structure of the present invention is as described above, and the packaged moss sheet that is dry and washed and does not have an excess residue can be stored in a sealed state for more than one year. Since it is composed only of itself, it is not bulky as a product and has excellent market distribution.

The whole perspective view which cut the product of the embodiment of the present invention partially. The process before washing | cleaning is shown by process explanatory drawing of this invention method. The process explanatory drawing shows the steps from cleaning to packaging.

  Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in the order of the manufacturing process. The packaging moss sheet of the present invention is produced in the order of a cultivation process, a peeling process, a washing process, a drying process, and a packaging process.

  Cultivation process is a suitable size such as corresponding to A4 size, B5 size, etc., for example, a single moss plant (Sugi moss, snago moss, high moss etc.), colony pieces, small pieces, or shredded moss 1 According to a certain standard, the moss is propagated in a normal manner by spraying it on a cultivation container 3 having an appropriate medium 2 spread on the bottom, supplying water.

  In the peeling step, the moss sufficiently propagated in the cultivation container 3 is peeled off and separated from the culture medium 2 in a colony (group) state. The separated moss is a colony sheet body (hereinafter referred to as “raw moss sheet body 4”) in which temporary roots are entangled with each other, and the size thereof corresponds to the shape of the cultivation container 3.

  In the washing process, the green moss sheet body 4 is placed in the frame body 5 having the same size as the cultivation container 3, and the net body 6 is arranged on the front and back, and the green moss sheet body 4 is sandwiched between the net bodies 6 and washed. I do. Washing mainly involves washing with water, removing the culture medium 2 attached to the raw moss sheet body 4, the seeds of the weeds flying on the moss during the cultivation process, and the eggs and larvae of the insects. Since the raw moss sheet body 4 is sandwiched between the net bodies 6, the entanglement between the temporary roots is not released by the cleaning, and the cleaning can be finished in the colony state.

  In the drying step, the raw moss sheet body 4 is dehydrated by natural drying or artificial drying, and dried until the moss is not killed and the moss cannot grow. In the drying described above, a moss sheet body (dried moss sheet body 7) that is dried while maintaining the sheet state is obtained.

  In the packaging process, the dried moss sheet body 7 produced above is stored in the packaging bag 8 and sealed, and the packaging bag 8 is formed of a non-water-permeable and non-breathable material and has a size. Is the same as or equal to the size of the frame 5. Therefore, the dried moss sheet body 7 is accommodated as it is or divided according to the size of the packaging bag 8.

  Thus, the packaging moss sheet sealed in the packaging bag can be distributed to the market as a moss product, and the purchaser wants to take out the dried moss sheet body 7 from the packaging bag 8 and propagate it. The moss can be cultivated by pasting it on the medium as it is or by cutting it into a moss and giving appropriate moisture. The packaged moss sheet of the present application is a dry plant from which the medium containing soil bacteria has been removed, and there are no export obstacles in terms of quarantine and can be provided as an export product.
