Description

  The present invention provides a cultivation method and a facility for cultivating plants such as tomatoes, wherein the plants are divided into two groups and managed, and the plant groups divided into two groups are allowed to coexist and grow. About the installation method.

Technology background

  In the case of plants such as tomatoes, when planting new plants, it is common to cut the already planted plants, but in this method it is difficult to increase the yield, so in recent years, Attempts have been made to increase the yield by planting and raising seedlings at the root of the plant that has been planted, or by newly planting at a part of the plant that has already been planted, where the plant has been partially cut down.

Also, as in Patent Documents 1 and 2, a plurality of cultivation beds are prepared at a predetermined height, and the cultivation beds are moved according to the growth of each tree, so that each plant coexists in consideration of the sunshine. There is also introduced a technique for causing the plants to coexist by arranging the culture medium in two upper and lower stages using a dedicated cultivation apparatus as in Patent Document 3 and exchanging the medium vertically.

  As another method, there is a cultivation method in which the yield is increased by cultivating at a higher density than usual, called dense planting.

  As a problem of the above-mentioned means, there is a problem that when planted at the root of a plant already planted, the plant at the root of the plant does not receive sufficient solar radiation, resulting in poor growth.

  In addition, in the case of the method of cutting some of the already planted plants and planting them there, the problem of solar radiation can be solved, but it is inevitable that the harvested amount of the cut trees will decrease.

  In the case of the cultivation methods of Patent Documents 1 and 2, the cultivation bed is moved. However, when the whole growth scale is small and the plant is small, it can be relatively easily performed, but when the plant grows large, There is a problem that it cannot be easily performed because a great deal of labor is required.

  Even in the case of using a dedicated device as disclosed in Patent Document 3, a mechanism for vertically exchanging and moving a two-stage plant group is required, and there is a problem that labor and cost are required.

  The dense planting method has a problem that, although the plant is small and good in the early stage of growth, when the plant is large, solar radiation is inhibited and the growth is poor, so that the growth period is shortened.

In order to solve such a problem, the present invention sets the height of the culture medium higher than the basal plane, and lowers the tip of one plant group down to near the height of the culture medium, and the other plant group. Is characterized by growing above the height of the medium. Further, in a method of cultivating a plant such as a tomato, a medium is installed at a predetermined height from a basal surface, the medium is managed in two groups, and a plant planted in the medium is divided into two groups. The plant group divided into two groups was managed and attracted to the lower side and the upper side of the medium, respectively, and allowed to coexist. A watering dripper for watering the plant was branched from a watering main hose, and the plant was cultivated. Growing by watering , the plant is hung on the attracting string, the attracting string is stored in the attracting hook ahead, the attracting hook is hooked on the attracting wire, and by the attracting string, One of the two plant groups is grown on the upper side, the other plant group is grown on the lower side, and the middle of the tip and the root of the other plant group is Lowered below the height of the medium and the other plant The top of the plant is turned upward, and the fruits of the other plant are harvested, and then the middle of the tip and the root of one plant is lowered to below the height of the culture medium by an attracting string, and , Ru toward the distal end of one of the plant group on the upper side. Further, another method for cultivating a plant such as a tomato according to the present invention is characterized in that the medium of one group of the two medium groups and the medium of one group of the two medium groups are different from each other. A total of two culture mediums of different groups constitute one set, and an irrigation dripper is arranged for each set.

  There is a group of plants with different growth states above and below the medium, but in order to cope with it, the medium is also divided and installed and managed in two groups, and each plant group is planted in each medium group. I do.

  The medium divided into two groups is arranged adjacent to each other, such as alternately in one row or parallel in two rows, and one medium in one medium group and one medium in the other medium group adjacent thereto are totally two pieces. And one set, and the irrigation units are arranged and distributed in units of the set.

  A watering dripper is used for watering, and the watering dripper moves back and forth between two sets of media depending on the growth state of each plant group. The irrigation dripper may be provided with a mark or the like in the vicinity of the medium and in order to make it easy to move back and forth.

  By the effect of this means, since the medium does not need to be moved and the upper and lower plant groups can coexist without interfering with each other, the upper and lower divided cultivation can be performed without requiring a special mechanism.

  By the effect of this means, the mature tree is lowered, the newly planted seedlings are attracted to the upper side, and they are simultaneously grown and continuously harvested. In the early stage of growth without inhibition, both plants are grown on the upper side, one plant group is grown on the upper side as it grows, and the other plant group is grown on the lower side. It is possible to grow without. It is also possible to cultivate densely while obtaining continuous harvest by combining these two methods.

  Although there are plant groups with different growth states, each plant group is planted in the corresponding medium group, so cultivation management can be easily performed, and when replacing the medium of one medium group, the other is Since there is no effect on the growth of the medium group, there is no problem in changing the medium.

  Although there are two groups of mediums and two groups of plants are to be cultivated and managed, the present invention can easily move the medium between the set of irrigation drippers and thereby, the two groups of plants Therefore, multiple irrigation systems and new irrigation systems are not required.

  FIG. 1 (a) shows a state in which two medium groups are set as an A medium group 1a and a B medium group 1b, and are arranged on the bench 3 alternately in one line, with two rows of one medium being planted in one row. The A plant group 2a is already planted in the A medium group 1a. At this time, nothing has been planted in the B medium group 1b. The height 11 of the medium is determined by the height of the bench 3, but the height of the bench 3 is higher than the base surface 4, and the height is such that each plant group to be lowered can grow normally. It is good if there is. In addition, in order to avoid complications, only plants of the plant are illustrated, and fruits and leaves are omitted, and the same applies hereinafter.

  Each plant is hung by the attracting string 5, and the attracting string 6 is sufficiently wound and stored in the leading hook 6, and the attracting hook 6 is hooked on the attracting wire 7. Cultivation system can be used as it is. The bench 3 is held by a column or a hanging bracket from above, but is not shown because it is a normal facility, and the irrigation dripper 9 is not shown because the figure becomes complicated, and is shown in FIG. 1 (b). I do.

  FIG. 1B illustrates the state of the irrigation dripper 9 in FIG. 1A, omitting the plants and the like.

  FIG. 2 (a) shows a state where the B plant group 2b is newly planted in the B medium group 1b where the tip of the A plant group 2a is lowered to near the height 11 of the medium and the B medium group 1b in which nothing is planted. Write. In this state, if the tip of the plant group 2a is further extended, the solar radiation is inhibited between the plant group 2a and the plant group 2b. Stop growth. After harvesting the fruit that has grown or that is fruiting and growing, it will be cut down. Similarly to the above, the state of the irrigation dripper at this time is omitted in FIG. 2A and shown in FIG. 2B.

  Regarding the installation height of the attraction wire 7, it is easier to work without hanging the B plant group 2b until the cutting of the A plant group 2a is completed. It is desirable that the height be such that it can be continuously attracted upward without being pulled.

  FIG. 3A shows a state after the A plant group 2a has been cut down. Even when the medium needs to be replaced after logging, the removal and replacement of the A medium group 1a does not affect the growth of the B plant group 2b. Similarly to the above, the state of the irrigation dripper at this time is omitted in FIG. 3 (a) and shown in FIG. 3 (b).

  At the time of the next planting, it is sufficient that the tip of the B plant group 2b is lowered until the height of the medium is around 11, and a new plant is planted in the A medium group 1a. When the group 2b is cut down, the state is exactly as shown in FIG. 1 and can be repeated thereafter.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 (b), 2 (b), and 3 (b), the branch 10 from the irrigation main hose of the irrigation dripper 9 is a set of the A culture medium group 1a and the B culture medium group 1b. By setting it near the gap, the work can be easily performed even when the irrigation dripper 9 moves back and forth between the respective culture media. The irrigation dripper 9 branches from the branching section 10, and it is desirable to be able to adjust the number of the A medium group 1a and the B medium group 1b according to the required amount of irrigation of the plant in each medium group. It is better to have a certain number of branches, and although this drawing shows five branches, it is needless to say that the number of branches does not necessarily have to be five.

  As shown in FIG. 1 (b), when there is a plant only in one of the medium groups, all the irrigation drippers 9 are arranged in that medium group. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 2B, when it is necessary to irrigate the other medium group, a part of the watering dripper 9 is moved to that medium group. In FIG. 2 (b), two out of five were moved, depending on the required amount of irrigation. Thereafter, the irrigation dripper 9 is further moved according to the required amount of irrigation of each medium group, and finally, at the time of logging, it is not necessary to irrigate the medium group of the plant group to be cut as shown in FIG. Move all of the irrigation dripper 9 to the other culture medium group.

  Therefore, according to the present embodiment, a plant cultivation method capable of obtaining a larger yield without installing a special device or member can be provided.

  It is a figure in the state where there is only A plant group. (A) Overall view (b) Irrigation dripper   It is a figure of the state where A plant group and B plant group coexist. (A) Overall view (b) Irrigation dripper   It is a figure of a state with only a B plant group. (A) Overall view (b) Irrigation dripper
