Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To inhibit a seedling grown in a pot from spreading its roots out to a seedling pallet by using an outer cover for the outside of the pot, thus facilitate the disconnection of the pot after growing to easily take out the pot without root breakage. SOLUTION: This seedling-growing pot comprises the main body 10 which is opened at its top 11, has a hole for absorbing up water 12 at the bottom and a number of holes bored on the peripheral wall 23 which is tapered so as to expand upward and an outer cover 20 into which the pot main body can be fitted. After a seedling is grown, the pot main body 10 is taken out together with the outer cover 20 and the main body 10 is pulled out of the outer cover 20 and transplanted. Thus, the root breakage can be conveniently avoided, when the seedling is taken out of a pallet and transplanted for the next stage and the handling of the growing pot is facilitated for culturing seedlings.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a seedling raising pot and a seedling raising cultivation method using the same.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, seeding work and storage of cultivation soil have been completed in a small container-shaped seedling-growing pot, which are successively inserted into and held in a large number of holding holes of a seedling-raising pallet. It is well known that the seedlings are raised by raising them (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5-43838, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5).
-74244 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-9549).

[0003] Particularly, the seedling raising pallet is often used for hydroponic cultivation, and is a method of sucking water from the lower portion of the seedling raising pot to raise the seedlings. In this case, when the seedling raising pot was taken out from the pallet after raising the seedlings, the roots that spread to the inside of the pallet were cut off on the way, which was a problem in transplanting the seedling raising pot.

Therefore, the present invention has an object to take out the seedling-growing pot from the cultivation pallet in a state where the roots are not cut off so that the transplantation after seedling growth can be performed well.

[0005]

A seedling raising pot according to the present invention, which is capable of achieving the above object, has an upper opening and a water wicking hole on the lower side, as well as an upper side. It is characterized by combining a pot main body in which a large number of holes are formed in a tapered peripheral wall that is widened to the side, and a tapered upper and lower open-ended outer casing into which the pot main body can be inserted.

According to the seedling raising pot of claim 1 of the present invention having the above-mentioned structure, the step before inserting the pot body into the casing and setting the pot body with the casing on the cultivation pallet. Alternatively, at the stage after setting, sowing and housing of cultivation soil are completed in the pot body. Then, the seedlings are raised using a cultivation pallet. The roots overhang with the raising of seedlings, but the outer cover does not spread to the inside of the pallet due to the non-porous wall.
After raising the seedlings, take out the pot body together with the outer casing from the seedling raising pallet, and remove the pot body from the outer casing so that even roots protruding from the peripheral wall holes of the pot body will not be cut off and only the pot body will slide. Will be removed from the outer body. Then, the pot body can be transplanted to another cultivation soil.

Further, according to the present invention, as described in claim 2,
The pot main body is made of a paper material, and the outer cover is made of a transparent synthetic resin sheet. Further, as a seedling raising method using a seedling raising pot, as described in claim 3, Insert and fit the pot body into the body, and before or after setting the pot body together with the casing on the culturing pallet, sow seedling and store the cultivation soil in the pot body, and then carry out seedling raising. It is characterized in that the pot main body is taken out from the seedling raising pallet together with the subject, and the pot main body is removed from the outer casing to transplant the pot main body.

Particularly in the above-mentioned present invention, when the pot body is made of a paper material, it can be easily dissolved in the cultivation soil after transplanting and can be assimilated into the cultivation soil. In addition, when the casing is made of a transparent synthetic resin sheet, the pot is The tension of the root from the peripheral wall hole of the main body can be seen through well, and the pot main body can be pulled out while sliding from the casing without causing root breakage.

[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a state in which the pot body 10 and the outer casing 20 are separated from each other. The pot body 10 has an upper portion 11 opened, a water suction hole 12 provided at the lower portion, and spreads upward. A large number of holes 14 are formed in the tapered peripheral wall 13, and a paper material that is easily dissolved in the cultivation soil is preferable.

Next, the outer casing 20 has upper and lower portions 21 and 22 into which the pot body 10 can be inserted, and has a tapered shape that is widened upward, and is transparent so that the protrusion of the root from the pot body 10 can be easily seen. A synthetic resin sheet is preferable, and the root is formed on the non-peripheral peripheral wall 23 so that the root does not protrude outward from the outer cover 20. The pot body 10 is inserted and fitted into the above-mentioned outer casing body 20, and seeding and housing of cultivation soil are completed in the pot body 10. In this case, it is needless to say that the soil for cultivation may be sowed after sowing or unsown. Then, the pot body 10 is inserted and held in the holding hole 31 of the cultivation pallet 30 together with the outer cover 20, and this state is shown in FIG.
In the case of 0, the water stored in the lower portion for hydroponic cultivation can be sucked up and supplied from the water suction holes 12 formed below the pot body 10 to the cultivation soil.

It is to be noted that the pot body 10 before seeding and containing the soil for cultivation may be held together with the casing 20 in the pallet 30 for growing, and then seeding and housing of the soil for cultivation may be carried out. An example of the state in which the pot body 10 after raising seedlings is removed from the casing 10 is shown in FIG.
The root is overhanging from No. 4. The pot body 10 in such a state is transplanted to the cultivation soil in another cultivation place and cultivated for raising seedlings. This state is shown in FIG. 4, and the cultivation place is not limited.

Regarding the cultivation pallet 30 described above,
Although various known ones are used, those made of foamed resin which are lightweight and have excellent heat insulating performance are preferable.

[0013]

When the seedling raising pot according to the present invention is used,
The use of the outer cover prevents the roots overgrown in the pot body from spreading to the pallet for cultivation, and the seedling raising pot can be easily removed after raising the seedlings and can be taken out without causing root cutting. In particular, the use of the transparent casing 20 is also convenient in that it is possible to confirm well how the root protrudes from the peripheral wall hole of the pot body.

Further, when the pot body is a paper body, it is convenient because it is easily dissolved and assimilated into the cultivation soil at the time of transplantation after raising seedlings.
Furthermore, according to the method for raising seedlings using the seedling raising pot according to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the overhanging of roots during seedling raising to the outside of the seedling raising pot, and remove the seedling raising pot from the cultivation pallet after raising seedlings to It is also convenient to prevent root breakage when transplanting for step cultivation, facilitates handling of the seedling raising pot, and can preferably carry out seedling raising cultivation.
