Description

The present invention relates to a cover for a paprika seedling raising pot and a paprika cultivation tool.

When cultivating crops, rock wool pots may be used in which the side peripheral surface is covered with a coating or a container and the upper surface is not covered. Cultivation of agricultural products using such a rock wool pot has a problem that algae are generated on the upper surface of the rock wool pot and a problem that pests and the like invade from the upper surface. In order to eliminate such a problem, a configuration in which the upper surface of the rock wool pot is covered with a cover has been proposed by Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-29360) and the like.

The cover configuration disclosed in Patent Document 1 covers the upper surface of the rock wool pot but has an opening (hole) for inserting a sapling of a crop set in the rock wool pot. The exposure range on the top surface of the rock wool pot can be minimized.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-29360 (Claims 1 and 2 and FIG. 4 etc.)

By the way, when the paprika seedlings 5 are cultivated by simply setting the stems 6 upward in the set recesses 2A formed in the central portion of the upper surface 3 of the seedling raising pot 2 formed of rock wool, the seedlings 5 are cultivated at the time of young trees. The dry state and the wet state of the portion of the stem 6 are repeated, and the stem 6 is rotted and damaged. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, by setting the seedling 5 (seedling) sideways or downward in the set recess 2A of the seedling raising pot 2, the stem 6 at the time of the young tree is always kept in a wet state. Can prevent damage to the stem 6.

However, the opening 4 of the cover 1 of Patent Document 1 is formed at a position directly above the set recess 2A of the seedling raising pot 2. Therefore, the stem 6 grown upward from the paprika sapling 5 is inserted not at the central portion of the opening 4 but at a position (eccentric position) horizontally offset from the plane center position of the opening 4. When the seedling 5 grows and the stem 6 becomes thick in such a state, the stem 6 interferes with the inner peripheral edge of the opening 4, causing damage to the stem 6, and in some cases, the seedling 5 withers.

Therefore, according to the present invention, when paprika is cultivated in a state where the exposure of the upper surface of the seedling pot is minimized using the seedling raising pot, the paprika stem is not damaged even if the paprika seedlings grow thick. The purpose is to provide covers for nursery pots and paprika cultivation tools.

As a result of diligent research by the inventor of this application in order to solve the above problems, the following configuration was conceived. That is, the present invention is a cover for a paprika seedling raising pot used by mounting on a paprika seedling raising pot in which a setting recess of paprika seedlings is formed at the center position of any one surface of the outer surface, and the surface facing the set recess. The opening for inserting the stem of the paprika seedling is formed at a plane position offset from the plane position of the set recess, and a plurality of liquid supply parts are provided at the outer position of the opening. It is a cover for paprika seedling pots, which is characterized by being used.

As a result, even if the paprika seedlings are grown in a state where the paprika seedlings are set sideways or downward in the set recess of the seedling raising pot, the paprika stem can be inserted into the central portion of the opening. That is, even if the paprika seedlings grow, the paprika stems do not interfere with the openings, and damage to the stems can be prevented.

Further, the liquid supply unit has a penetrating portion that penetrates the liquid supply pipe that supplies liquid fertilizer and water to the paprika seedling raising pot in the thickness direction of the paprika seedling raising pot cover, and a dam bar that surrounds the outer periphery of the penetrating portion. It is preferably formed.

This makes it possible to prevent liquid fertilizer and water from leaking from the portion where the tip of the liquid supply portion penetrates the article.

Further, the paprika seedling raising pot having a paprika seedling set recess formed on one surface of the outer surface and the paprika seedling raising pot are used by being attached to the paprika seedling raising pot, and the paprika seedling stalk is inserted through the surface facing the set recess. A paprika seedling raising pot cover, which is formed at a plane position offset from the plane position of the set recess and has a plurality of liquid supply portions at the outer positions of the opening. It can also be a paprika cultivation tool characterized by being equipped.

As a result, even if the paprika seedlings are grown in a state where the paprika seedlings are set sideways or downward in the set recess of the seedling raising pot, the paprika stem can be inserted into the central portion of the opening. That is, even if the paprika seedlings grow, the paprika stems do not interfere with the openings, and damage to the paprika stems can be prevented.

Further, the liquid supply unit has a penetrating portion that penetrates the liquid supply pipe that supplies liquid fertilizer and water to the paprika seedling raising pot in the thickness direction of the paprika seedling raising pot cover, and a dam bar that surrounds the outer periphery of the penetrating portion. It is preferably formed.

This makes it possible to prevent liquid fertilizer and water from leaking from the portion where the tip of the liquid supply portion penetrates the article.

Further, it is preferable that the set recess is provided at a plane position offset from the center position of the outer surface on which the set recess is formed.

Hereinafter, the cover for the paprika seedling pot in the present invention will be described in detail based on the embodiment.

(First Embodiment)
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the cover 10 for a paprika seedling pot in the present embodiment has a lid having a rectangular flat surface portion 12 in a plan view and a side wall portion 14 standing along the outer peripheral edge of the flat surface portion 12. It is formed. The flat surface portion 12 is provided with an opening 16 penetrating in the plate thickness direction of the flat surface portion 12 and a liquid supply portion 18 for supplying liquid fertilizer or water at a plurality of locations outside the opening portion 16. Such a paprika seedling pot cover 10 can be formed of a synthetic resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or polyethylene terephthalate, but is not limited to these materials.

The side wall portion 14 is an outer surface of the paprika seedling raising pot 20 so that the cover 10 for the paprika seedling raising pot does not easily come off from the paprika seedling raising pot 20 after being attached to the paprika seedling raising pot 20 (see FIG. 4) described later. Is in contact with the required height range. The height dimension of the side wall portion 14 is not particularly limited, but if the length of one side of the upper surface of the paprika seedling raising pot 20 is 10 cm, it may be formed to a height of about 2.5 cm.

The opening 16 is formed so that the plane position offset with respect to the plane center position of the plane portion 12 (the plane position of the set recess 22 of the paprika seedling pot 20) is the center point. The offset distance from the plane center position of the plane portion 12 to the center point of the opening 16 in the present embodiment is a distance obtained by adding about 5 cm to the width dimension of the culture 32 of the paprika seedling 30 (when the paprika seedling 30 grows). The central axis (central position) of the paprika stalk 34 may be formed. A thick portion 16A may be formed on the outer peripheral edge of the opening 16 to protect the paprika stalk 34 and prevent the operator's finger injury. ..

The liquid supply unit 18 is formed at a plurality of locations on the outer side of the opening 16 in the flat surface portion 12. In the present embodiment, the liquid supply portions 18 are formed at all four corners of the flat surface portion 12. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the liquid supply unit 18 in the present embodiment is a dam bar that protrudes upward with a required dimensional width along the outer peripheral edge of the penetrating portion 18A and the penetrating portion 18A having a concave shape in a circular shape in a plan view. It has 18B. As described above, in the liquid supply unit 18 in the present embodiment, the penetrating portion 18A is recessed downward from the upper surface of the flat surface portion 12, and the outer peripheral edge of the penetrating portion 18A is raised by the dam bar 18B. In the present embodiment, all the penetrating portions 18A of the liquid supply portions 18 provided at the four locations are in a closed state. The user pierces the penetrating portion 18A by the liquid supply pipe 40 by inserting the liquid supply pipe 40 into the penetrating portion 18A arbitrarily selected. Therefore, the penetrating portion 18A into which the liquid supply pipe 40 is not inserted maintains a state of covering the upper surface of the paprika seedling raising pot 20.

When the liquid supply pipe 40 (see FIG. 4) is inserted into the penetrating portion 18A to supply liquid fertilizer or water as a liquid to the paprika seedling raising pot 20, liquid leaks from the gap between the liquid supply portion 18 and the liquid supply pipe 40. Even so, the liquid can be stored in the recessed portion of the penetrating portion 18A, and the dam bar 18B can prevent the penetrating portion 18A from flowing out of the plane region.

Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, by connecting the thick portion 16A of the opening 16 and the dam bar 18B of the liquid supply portion 18 so as to be integrated by the connecting portion 12A, the paprika seedling raising pot is used. The shape retention and mechanical strength of the cover 10 are improved.

A method of cultivating paprika using a paprika cultivation tool 100 in which a cover 10 for a paprika seedling pot according to the present embodiment is attached to a paprika seedling pot 20 will be described. As shown in FIG. 4, the paprika cultivation tool 100 in the present embodiment includes a paprika seedling pot cover 10 and a paprika seedling pot 20 formed in a cubic shape by a water-retaining material. Although not shown, the paprika seedling raising pot 20 is housed in a storage container, or the side peripheral surface and the bottom surface are covered with a film, so that only the upper surface is exposed. The supply of water and liquid fertilizer to the paprika cultivation tool 100 can be performed by inserting the liquid supply pipe 40 into the liquid supply unit 18 and supplying the liquid from the liquid supply pipe 40 by a pump or the like (not shown).

A set recess 22 for setting the paprika seedlings 30 is formed at the center of the plane of the upper surface, which is one surface of the outer surface of the paprika seedling raising pot 20. The shape of the set recess 22 is not particularly limited, but it is preferably formed in a hemispherical shape, a rectangular parallelepiped shape, or a cube shape. The depth of the set recess 22 is not particularly limited, but it is preferably about the same as the height dimension of the culture 32 of the paprika seedling 30 to be set in the set recess 22.

First, the paprika seedlings 30 are set sideways or downward in the set recess 22 of the paprika seedling raising pot 20 of the paprika cultivation tool 100 in the present embodiment. Next, the cover 10 for the paprika seedling pot is placed by aligning the plane center position (center position) of the opening 16 with the center position (center axis position) of the stem 34 when the stem 34 of the paprika seedling 30 is turned upward. Mounting. Then, the paprika sapling 30 is grown based on a known method.

When the paprika seedling 30 grows, the stem 34 extends upward from the position offset in the horizontal plane from the plane center position (center position) of the set recess 22 in the paprika seedling raising pot cover 10. In the cover 10 for a paprika seedling raising pot in the present embodiment, the position of the opening 16 is such that the center position of the opening 16 is located at a position in the horizontal plane in which the stem 34 extends upward on the surface facing the set recess 22. Is offset from the horizontal plane position of the set recess 22, so that the paprika stem 34 can be inserted into the plane center position of the opening 16. In this state, the paprika seedlings 30 can be grown by appropriately supplying liquid fertilizer and water, which are liquids necessary for cultivation, from the liquid supply pipe 40.

Since the liquid supply unit 18 is provided at each corner of the flat surface portion 12 of the paprika seedling raising pot cover 10, the liquid supply pipe 40 supplies the liquid to an appropriate position according to the position of the liquid storage tank (not shown). It can be inserted into the portion 18. Further, since the dam bar 18B is formed in each liquid supply unit 18, liquid fertilizer and water do not leak from the gap between the liquid supply pipe 40 and the insertion portion, and the growth of algae can be reliably prevented. , The risk of infectious diseases to paprika seedlings 30 can be significantly reduced.

In this way, even if the paprika sapling 30 grows smoothly and the paprika stem 34 becomes thick, the paprika stem 34 does not interfere with the opening 16 and can maintain a healthy state. It is convenient in that it enables long-term cultivation of paprika.

(Second Embodiment)
In the present embodiment, the configuration of the paprika seedling raising pot 20 for realizing the paprika cultivation tool 100 having the same operation as that of the first embodiment will be described. Here, for the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, the reference numerals used in the first embodiment are used in the drawings, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

As shown in FIG. 5, the paprika seedling raising pot 20 in the present embodiment is formed at a plane position where the set recess 22 on the upper surface, which is a part of the outer surface, is offset from the plane center position on the upper surface of the paprika seedling raising pot 20. It is characterized by points. When such a paprika seedling raising pot 20 is adopted, the paprika seedling raising pot cover 10 to be attached to the paprika seedling raising pot 20 has an opening 16 at a position in the center of a plane directly above the set recess 22, which is a configuration of the prior art. The formed paprika seedling pot cover 10 can be adopted.

By doing so, it is possible to offset the plane position of the opening 16 of the cover 10 for the paprika seedling raising pot with respect to the plane position of the set recess 22 of the paprika seedling raising pot 20. That is, if the paprika seedlings 30 are set sideways or downward in the set recess 22 of the paprika seedling pot 20 of the paprika cultivation tool 100 in the present embodiment, the paprika stem 34 is set on the flat surface of the opening 16 of the paprika seedling pot cover 10. It can be inserted in the center position.

The cultivation method can be applied to the paprika cultivation tool 100 in the present embodiment in the same manner as in the first embodiment, and the same effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained. That is, the main point of the present invention is that the set recess 22 of the paprika seedling raising pot 20 and the opening 16 of the cover 10 for the paprika seedling raising pot are offset (shifted) from each other by a required distance.

Although the present invention has been described in detail based on the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. For example, although the paprika cultivation tool in the above embodiment is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped or a cube, it may be formed in a polygonal columnar body.

Further, in the above embodiment, the thick portion 16A is formed along the inner peripheral edge of the opening 16, but the thick portion 16A is formed in a so-called rounded portion instead of the thick portion 16A, and the opening 16 is formed. A part of the flat surface portion 12 may be formed in a protruding portion protruding upward along the inner peripheral edge.

Further, in the above embodiment, the member thickness of the portion of the liquid supply unit 18 into which the liquid supply pipe 40 is inserted is not particularly limited, but the liquid supply unit 18 is supplied to the flat surface portion 12 rather than the member thickness. The member thickness of the insertion portion of the pipe 40 may be reduced. This is convenient in that the liquid supply pipe 40 can be easily inserted into the liquid supply unit 18.

In addition to the above modifications, it is also possible to adopt a configuration in which the embodiments described in the embodiments are appropriately combined.
