Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a light-shielding plate used for home gardening when raising seedlings of vegetables and flowers.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, there have been various types of plant cultivation devices for home gardening, such as hydroponic cultivation, pot cultivation, and soil cultivation, and various types of crops have been cultivated. For example, cultivation of honey leaves, parsley, celery, etc. for home gardening is not only useful for practical purposes but also for ornamental purposes. When cultivating these seeds, the seeds are usually covered with newspaper or straw, etc., or brought into a dark place to promote germination.

[Problems that the invention aims to solve] However, when different types of seeds are sown in one cultivation container, the germination times are different, and if some types germinate later, even if some seeds have germinated, I had to leave it uncovered in the dark. Furthermore, even in the case of seeds of the same type, similar problems occurred because the dates and times of germination were different. In addition, the seedlings of honey leaves, parsley, celery, etc. grown at home are often raised in or near the kitchen, and the sight of newspapers spread out on the cultivation bed during germination is unsightly. It was unsightly because it leaked and got dirty. Furthermore, as mentioned above, if there are seeds that have germinated and seeds that have not germinated in the same cultivation container, the grower always has to choose between removing the cover or leaving it as is.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention has a plurality of holes drilled in a flat plate member placed on a cultivation bed for raising seedlings, and each hole is provided with individual holes. The gist is that a light shielding material is provided.

[Function] With the above-mentioned configuration, the present invention has a flat plate-like member on the cultivation bed, aligns the holes with the sowing positions, and covers each seed with a light-shielding material, so that all the light-shielding material is removed at the time of sowing. Set the materials,
By removing the shading material from the germinated area, it is possible to germinate seeds that germinate early or seeds that germinate late in the same cultivation container, and grow strong seedlings by exposing them to sunlight at the same time as they germinate. It is.

[Example] An example of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the light-shielding plate 1 for raising seedlings of the present invention, in which 2 is a hole and 3 is a lid serving as a light-shielding material to close the hole. FIG. 2 is a partially cutaway perspective view showing an example of a hydroponic cultivation apparatus using the light shielding plate. In the hydroponic cultivation apparatus, an inclined plate 8 is placed on the upper part of the nutrient solution tank 7, and the inclined plate 8 is attached to a frame 19. Since the nutrient solution tank 7 requires heat insulation, it is formed of synthetic resin foam, a synthetic resin hollow plate, or the like. The inclined plate 8 is made by cutting a synthetic resin board such as polyvinyl chloride or polyethylene, and is inclined to the extent that the nutrient solution flows slowly over it. The nutrient solution flowing on the inclined plate 8 falls into the tank from a drain port 9 provided at the end of the plate 8. Cultivation beds 4 are attached to the inclined plate 8 at predetermined intervals on the upper surface of the plate 8, and the lower part of the cultivation beds 4 is configured to be fully immersed in the nutrient solution. A foam board 6 with heat insulation properties is provided on the top of the cultivation bed 4, and circular or polygonal holes are made at the positions of the cultivation bed 4, which also serves as a support for plants. be. The light shielding plate 1 for raising seedlings of the present invention is placed thereon. The light-shielding plate 1 for raising seedlings shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is formed from a flat plate made of synthetic resin, and has a large number of circular, polygonal, etc. holes 2 bored at the position of the cultivation bed 4.

The light-shielding plate 1 is an opaque plate made of synthetic resin such as polyvinyl chloride or polyethylene and has a thickness of 0.5 m/m to 2.0 m/m, and is used to hide dirt and scratches on the foam board 6. Colored ones are preferred. The size of the hole 2 is circular with a diameter of about 4 cm to 5 cm, but it varies depending on the size of the cultivation device and the type of plant.For ornamental purposes, it is not only circular, but also rectangular, star-shaped, etc. It is also preferable to use The hole 2 is provided with a removable lid 3 as a light shielding material. The lid 3 is made of paper as thick as newspaper or
An opaque synthetic resin plate or the like with a thickness of about 0.5 m/m to 1.0 m/m is preferably used.

After the seeds are sown on the cultivation bed 4, the nutrient solution in the nutrient solution tank 7 on which the shade plate 1 is placed is pumped up by the pump 10 and once conveyed to the upper part of the inclined plate 8 through the pipe 11. The water is poured into the upstream side of the inclined plate 11 through a large number of fine holes drilled in the pipe 11. Since a large number of holes are provided in a horizontal row, the nutrient solution flows out over the entire surface of the inclined plate 8, and the cultivation bed 4 attached thereon is immersed in the nutrient solution, so that the nutrient solution reaches the seeds.
Excess liquid on the inclined plate 8 returns to the nutrient solution tank 7 through the drain port 9. In the hydroponic cultivation device shown in Figure 2,
The size of the tank 7 is about 1 m in length and width, and the depth of the tank is about 15 cm to 30 cm. Further, 20 is a peephole for inspecting the inside of the nutrient solution storage tank, 21 is a float for checking the amount of nutrient solution, and 22 is a thermometer. 23 is a heater for keeping the liquid temperature at a predetermined temperature.

Flower seeds, vegetable seeds, etc. are sown on the cultivation bed 4, and when they germinate, the light-shielding lid 3 of the shading plate is placed on the cultivation bed.
Remove it and let the light shine on it. for example,
For vegetables such as parsley, honey leaves, petzupah, watercress, etc., grow them in a sunny place in the kitchen.
If the light-shielding plate 1 is made of cream color, white, wood grain, etc., it will match the green of the plants and become more beautiful, and can also be enjoyed as an ornamental.

Further, the light shielding plate 1 may be directly attached to the foam board 6, or the foam board 6 may be used as a light shielding plate. At that time, it is desirable that the foam board 6 has a surface finish. Furthermore, the light shielding plate of the present invention can be used not only in hydroponic cultivation equipment but also in other cultivation equipment.

〔effect〕

With this invention, after sowing seeds, once they have germinated, the shading material can be removed only from the germinated position, and other seeds that will not germinate can be left shielded from light, so it is possible to grow seeds at different germination times in the same cultivation container. This has the effect of allowing the cultivation of other plants. or,
The shading plate for seedling raising of the present invention is suitable for cultivation equipment for home gardening.Moreover, the shading plate serves as a cover for the cultivation equipment, and by attaching a shading plate that has an aesthetically pleasing appearance, the overall appearance of the equipment can be improved. It has the advantage of being able to improve Furthermore, it is extremely easy to make by drilling holes in a flat synthetic resin plate and pasting paper over the holes, and it is also economically advantageous because it can be used as many times as needed.
