Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent roots from damaging in transplantation, by transplanting germinated seedlings on a small-sized cultivation block with the above-mentioned block and all into a large-sized cultivation block. CONSTITUTION:Cuts (b) are formed in a small-sized cultivation block 1 and a seed or small seedling is planted in the cuts (b). When the seedling is grown up, the seed or seedling with the small-sized cultivation block 1 and all are planted into a large-sized cultivation block 2. An inserting part (a) is formed in the large-sized cultivation block 2 so as to facilitate plating. After inserting the small-sized cultivation block 1, the outer periphery of the large-sized cultivation block 2 is suitably bound with a string.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application This invention relates to a method for cultivating plants and cultivation equipment therefor, and more particularly to a method and cultivation equipment for hydroponic cultivation.

Conventional method and conventional equipment
There is a cultivation method and cultivation equipment as disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 17943 in which a small cultivation block is fitted into a hole formed in a large cultivation block.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the conventional method, seedlings grown in a small cultivation block were cultivated by inserting the entire block into the cultivation hole of a large cultivation block. There is a drawback that the roots that emerge are damaged when inserted into the cultivation hole of a large cultivation block, resulting in a delay in subsequent growth. In particular, when a small cultivation block larger than the hole is used in order to bring the small cultivation block into close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the hole of the large cultivation block, the roots are severely damaged and may even break. For this reason, small cultivation blocks that were slightly smaller than the holes were often used in the past, but in this case, the small cultivation blocks did not come into close contact with the inner circumference of the holes of the large cultivation blocks, and this joint The problem was that the roots did not grow properly and growth was delayed.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the problems of the above-mentioned conventional methods, the present invention provides a cultivation method and cultivation equipment.

That is, the method consists of a small-sized cultivation block 1 made of urethane foam of an appropriate size, and a large-sized cultivation block 2, which is larger than this small-sized cultivation block 1 and also made of urethane foam.
Using the above-mentioned small cultivation block 1, a cut (a) is formed in which seeds are inserted or small seedlings are planted, and the seeds are sown in the cut (a) and the seedlings are raised, or small seedlings are planted and the seedlings are raised to make a permanent planting seedling A. Cultivate the latter large cultivation block 2
has a cut (b) into which the small cultivation block 1 can be inserted.
Alternatively, by forming an insertion part a such as a hole (c) and also forming a slit extending from the outer periphery to the insertion part a, the planted seedlings A grown in the small-scale cultivation block 1 can be directly transferred to the large-scale cultivation block. Large-scale cultivation in which the small-sized cultivation block 1 of the planted seedlings A is confined by opening and inserting the slot into the insertion part a of 2, and then appropriately tying the outer circumference of the large-sized cultivation block 2 with a string 3. This is a method for cultivating plants by hydroponically cultivating Block 2.

In addition, the cultivation equipment had the following configuration.

That is, the small cultivation block 1 is made of polyurethane foam and has an appropriate size, the large cultivation block 2 is larger than the small cultivation block 1 and is also made of urethane foam, and the string 3. Cultivation block 1 has a cut (a) for inserting seeds or planting small seedlings.
The latter large cultivation block 2 is formed with an insertion part a such as a cut (b) or a hole (c) into which the small cultivation block 1 can be inserted, and from the outer periphery to the insertion part a. This is a plant cultivation equipment that formed a continuous opening.

Functions and Effects of the Invention According to the cultivation method of the invention, seeds are sown in the cut (a) of the small cultivation block 1 and seedlings are raised.

When inserting a planted seedling A with a block into the insertion part a of the large-scale cultivation block 2, the large-scale cultivation Since it is possible to plant the block 2 while opening the cracks, the small cultivation block 1 can be inserted gently without being inserted directly, and then the string 3 is used to tighten the outer periphery of the large cultivation block 2 so that the cracks do not open. Therefore, since the large-scale cultivation block 2 containing the small-scale cultivation block 1 of the planted seedlings A is hydroponically cultivated, the roots extending to the outer periphery of the small-scale cultivation block 1 may be damaged, and the small-scale cultivation block 1 may become larger than the large-scale cultivation block 2. To achieve the effect of smoothly growing roots without causing an unexpected situation in which the growth of roots is delayed due to not coming into close contact with the inner circumferential surface of the insertion part.

Furthermore, when cultivating with the cultivation equipment of the present invention, not only can the effects of the above-mentioned cultivation method be expected, but also the work of inserting the small-sized cultivation block 1 into the insertion part a of the large-sized cultivation block 2 can be done without opening the crack. This allows the process to be carried out quickly without having to be careful not to damage the roots, improving work efficiency.

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings.
1 is a small cultivation block, which is made of urethane foam and formed into a cube. In addition, when raising a large number of seedlings,
As shown in the figure, the small-sized cultivation blocks 1 may be made by making cuts (A) at the base opening in a large urethane foam mat so that each small-sized cultivation block 1 can be easily torn off. Each small cultivation block 1 has a cut (a) formed at a predetermined depth for sowing seeds or inserting a seedling.

2 is a large cultivation block, which is also made of urethane foam into a cube. This large-sized cultivation block 2 is formed with an insertion part a such as a cut (b) or a hole (c) into which the small-sized cultivation block 1 can be inserted, and a vertical crack is formed from the outer peripheral surface. It is provided so that it can reach the insertion part a.

3 is a string that wraps around the large cultivation block 2 from the outer periphery, and in the example shown in Figure 1, a rubber band is used in place of the string.

To explain how to cultivate using the above cultivation equipment, first, seeds are sown in the cut (a) of small cultivation block 1, and the lower part of block 1 is immersed in a suitable container filled with water and kept at an appropriate temperature. The seeds will then germinate and grow into seedlings. Also,
As another method, small seedlings grown neck-to-neck in soil may be inserted into the cut (a) of block 1 and allowed to grow. This planting involves planting the planted seedlings A with blocks that have been raised in this way into the insertion part a of the large cultivation block 2.

Open the slot of this large cultivation block 2 as shown in Figure 6, insert the planted seedling A into the insertion part a, and gently plant it. Then, close the slot and tighten it from the outer periphery with a rubber band 3. Toyomu.

In this way, the large cultivation block 2 in which the planted seedlings A are planted is inserted into the hole 5 of the planting panel 4 of a suitable hydroponic cultivation device, and the seedlings are cultivated in the nutrient solution tank 6 as shown in FIG.
