JPH05137473A - Method for water culture using bottomless container and vegetable fiber - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To efficiently carry out water culture by planting a seedling of an aquatic plant in vegetable fiber in a bottomless container, dipping the seedling in a stored culture solution, growing roots and integrating the roots with the vegetable fiber. CONSTITUTION:A seedling of an aquatic plant 3 such as Phragmites communis Trinius, Scirpus lacustris L. var. tabernaemontani Trautv. or Acorus calamus L. var. asiaticus Pers. is planted in vegetable fiber 2, packed in a bottomless container 1 so as to fill the container 1 and obtained from a coconut shell, etc. The bottomless container 1 and the vegetable fiber 2 are then dipped in stored culture water 4. Thereby, roots 5 of the aquatic plant 3 are sufficiently grown and integrated with the vegetable fiber 2 into a reticular form. As a result, water culture is carried out.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention uses bottomless containers and plant fibers obtained from palm husks and the like to cultivate aquatic plants such as reeds, futoys, cattails and ginger, and the bottomless containers and plant fibers. The present invention relates to a hydroponic cultivation method using and.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, seedlings of aquatic plants have been planted in soil or the like contained in a container for cultivation.

[0003]

However, when such a cultivation method is used, the soil contained in the container easily flows out, the root growth is suppressed by the pathogenic bacteria in the soil, and the handling is easy. There is a problem that transportation costs to the planting site increase because it is not done.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, allows the roots of aquatic plants to grow well, and facilitates the transportation of grown aquatic plants to the planting site. It is intended to provide a cultivation method.

[0005]

According to the present invention, in order to achieve the above object, seedlings of an aquatic plant 3 are planted in a plant fiber 2 packed so as to fill a bottomless container 1, and the bottomless container 1 is then planted.
By immersing the plant fiber 2 in the reservoir culture water 4, the root 5 of the aquatic plant 3 is sufficiently developed and integrated with the plant fiber 2 in a reticulated manner.

[0006]

If the roots 5 of the aquatic plant 3 are sufficiently developed by the method according to the present invention to be integrated with the plant fiber 2 in a net-like manner, the above-mentioned integration is achieved when the aquatic plant 3 is transported to a planting place. It is also possible to extract the roots 5 of the aquatic plant 3 and the plant fibers 2 from the bottomless container 1 as shown in FIG.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

First, a bottomless container 1 having an appropriate size and depth is selected according to the kind of aquatic plant to be cultivated, and as shown in FIG. The vegetable fiber 2 obtained from the skin is packed to fill it.
Next, as shown in FIG.
After planting seedlings of aquatic plants 3 such as foot toys, cattails and ginger, the bottomless container 1 and the plant fibers 2 are immersed in the reserved culture water 4 stored by any means to obtain the roots of the aquatic plants 3. 5 is sufficiently developed to be integrated with the plant fiber 2 in a net shape.

[0009]

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY As described above, according to the present invention, the root of an aquatic plant is sufficiently developed and integrated with the plant fiber packed in the bottomless container into a net. Therefore, the aquatic plant is transported to the planting site. In doing so, it is possible to extract the roots and plant fibers of the integrated aquatic plant from the bottomless container, to make it lighter by drying it a little and then carry it, so that the carrying work is easily carried out and carried. This contributes to cost reduction.

Further, since soil is not used, root growth is not likely to be suppressed by the pathogen, and it grows sufficiently well and integrates with plant fibers in a net-like manner. It has a great effect such as a very high survival rate.
