Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention mainly relates to a nutritional supplement for supplying water and fertilizer to soil in a flowerpot.

[Conventional technology]

When growing flowers in flowerpots, it is necessary to supplement water and fertilizer. These supplements vary slightly depending on the type of flowering tree, but water needs to be supplied in appropriate amounts every day, and fertilizer needs to be supplied according to the growth of flowers and changes in climate.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a fertilizer replenisher composed of a water-permeable body and a water-soluble sheet filled with fertilizer and a fertilizer replenisher for putting fertilizer into a container having a water passage and replenishing the fertilizer little by little have been devised. (For example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 54-46715 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 62-198945) [Problems to be solved by the invention] Since water must be replenished every day, when leaving the house for several days There was a problem that we had to ask for the supplement of the above, and in the case of supplementing the fertilizer, we had to dig up the soil and fill it.

Since many fertilizer replenishers conventionally store fertilizer in a synthetic resin container, there is a problem in that an empty container remains after the fertilizer is replenished to the soil and the container must be discarded.

This proposal has been made in view of such problems that exist in the past, and its purpose is to be able to continuously supply water and fertilizer for several days, and to have a similar appearance to natural products, The purpose is to provide a nutritional supplement that provides nutrition.

[Means for solving the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the nutritional supplement of the present invention is formed from a hollow natural simulated product made of water-soluble hard paper and a water-soluble fertilizer housed inside the simulated product, and the simulated product has an appearance. It is composed of an upper wall formed to resemble a natural object and a lower wall that closes the bottom of the upper wall, and at least one water reservoir recess is formed on the upper wall.

It is desirable that a leg portion is provided on the lower portion of the outer periphery of the imitation, a vertical groove is formed in the leg portion, and the molten fertilizer can be replenished along the vertical groove.

[Action]

Water accumulates in the upper wall recess of the natural imitation, and the water permeates the interior of the imitation from the upper wall to dissolve the fertilizer stored in the imitation,
Penetrates into the soil from the bottom wall.

The natural simulant is gradually dissolved by the water sprinkled on the flowers,
By the time the fertilizer is almost melted, it loses its shape, and it can no longer stop its original shape.
It melts and becomes nutritious.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, a nutritional supplement according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings of the embodiments. A natural simulated object 2 is formed by an upper wall 3 and a lower wall 4, and one or more water pool recesses 5 are provided on the upper wall 3 to simulate A water-soluble fertilizer 6 is stored inside the object 2, and the appearance of the upper wall 3 is made to resemble a natural object such as a mountain, a rock, or a stone with imitation moss or imitation grass. Water-soluble hard paper, for example, water W that is made of hard paper having a thickness and hardness that allows water to be retained for several days without losing its shape even if water W collects in the recess 5 It is desirable that the bottom portion 5a of the recess 5 is formed to be thicker than the top portion 3a so as to uniformly permeate.

The fertilizer 6 to be stored in the natural simulant 2 may be stored separately for spring, summer, autumn, winter, or may be used for roses, chrysanthemums, satsuki, orchids, bonsai trees, etc. It is preferable to store the products in different types.

In the figure, 9 is a leg portion provided on the lower outer periphery of the nutritional supplement 1,
The leg portion 9 is formed by extending either one of the upper wall 3 and the lower wall 4 or by extending the entire circumference or a part of the upper and lower walls 3 and 4 integrally with each other. The part 9 is inserted into the soil G. Reference numeral 14 is a small hole formed in the lower wall 4 of the natural simulated object 2.

The nutritional supplement of this plan is 1 on the soil G near the roots of flowering trees.
When water W is applied to the flowers and trees when a body or several bodies are arranged and the water W is also applied to the replenishment body 1, a part of the water W permeates directly into the inside from the upper wall 3 of the natural simulated object 2, Most of the water W collects in the recess 5, penetrates into the inside of the simulated object 2 from the bottom 5a of the recess 5, and dissolves the fertilizer 6 stored in the simulated object 2. The melted fertilizer 6 permeates the lower wall 4 of the simulated object 2 and permeates the soil G from the lower wall 4.

Since the upper wall 3 and the lower wall 4 of the natural simulated object 2 are formed of water-soluble hard paper, they are gradually dissolved by the water W, and the fertilizer 6 stored in the simulated object 2 is deformed until it is substantially dissolved. It does not stop its original shape and melts into nutrition.

In the nutritional supplements shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the plan view of the natural simulated product 2 is formed into an arc shape corresponding to the curved surface of the flowerpot A, and the outer peripheral leg portion 9 is provided with the vertical groove 19. From this vertical groove 19, the flowerpot is provided. Molten fertilizer 6 is allowed to permeate along the outer periphery of A. This nutritional supplement 1 is used for flowers and trees that directly adversely affect the growth of the roots, and the nutrients are gradually fed from around the roots. To allow the roots to grow toward the supplemented nutrition, and to improve the root elongation to optimize the growth of flowering trees.

[Effect of device]

Since the nutritional supplement of the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects.

Once the nutritional supplement of this plan is placed once on the soil, it is only necessary to apply it to the replenisher when watering the flowers and trees, and when the replenisher melts and loses its shape, a new supplement is added. Since it can be placed again in the soil, it is really easy to handle. Moreover, since the fertilizer is stored in the replenishment body and this fertilizer is melted and penetrates into the soil, there is no need to dig the soil to supply the fertilizer, and it is not necessary to grasp and supply the fertilizer, and The appearance resembles natural objects such as mountains and rocks, or stones with imitation moss and imitation grass, so there is no discomfort when placed on the soil of a bonsai tree or flowerpot.

In particular, the natural mimic is formed of water-soluble hard paper, melts and loses its shape, and serves as nutrition, eliminating the need for empty container processing.
It can prevent the generation of waste (pollution). Furthermore, since a water reservoir recess is provided on the upper wall of the natural simulated object and the water that has accumulated in the recess is gradually penetrated, water sprinkling on the flowering trees is reduced to 1
The flowering tree does not die even if it is delayed for only two days. As a result, you can leave the house and go out for a few days.

In addition, in a nutritional supplement body in which legs are provided in the lower peripheral portion of the simulated object and vertical grooves are formed in the legs, molten fertilizer can be replenished along the vertical grooves.
