Description

Planting pots {Planting pot}

The present invention relates to a pot for plant cultivation, and more particularly, to a pot having a pronounced plant growth effect obtained by immersing a pot for plant cultivation prepared with palm fiber as a main ingredient in a microbial fermentation broth containing nutrients and microorganisms.

Seedling pots are planted or seedlings to grow in them and then planted, usually made of vinyl material. The vinyl port has one or several openings for venting and watering at the bottom of the body. Plants grown in plastic pots are removed from the pots and transplanted. However, since the roots of the plants in the plastic pot cannot extend to the outside of the pot, they grow along the inner wall, thereby suppressing the growth of the roots. In addition, the vinyl material pot is time-consuming and labor-intensive because plants must be planted after removal.

Some paper material pots are also used, but paper material pots are not suitable for plants that need to be grown and transplanted for six to sixteen months because they cannot grow sageweed or perennial plants because of their short life span. This is because the disintegration period of the coated paper pot is only about 3-4 months. In addition, surface coated paper pots, like vinyl pots, must be removed during implantation. Although it does not remove, it degrades slowly, but the coating component slows down the decomposition and causes problems with the initial activity of the plant.

The jute material pot is cultivated by inserting a pot made of jute fiber inside the plastic pot, and has the disadvantage of not having a long time as the life of the jute pot and the jute pot is 6 months.

Pots using non-woven fabrics are a good material to complement the disadvantages listed above, but because they do not use natural materials, it is inconvenient to remove them when planting or even after planting whole.

Patent publication No. 1996-4332 relates to a plant seedling pot and a manufacturing method thereof, and discloses a pot made of fibers obtained from palm fruit or coconut fruit.

In addition, Patent No. 819511 relates to a mesh port, in which natural fibers such as coir fibers or jute fibers are mixed with mycorrhizal fungi to form a mesh, which is manufactured as a pot, and then a mixed clay including ocher or charcoal is contained therein. Disclosed is a mesh port for filling and putting it back into a vinyl pot to grow a plant.

However, since palm fiber lives in a hot and humid area of palm trees, it contains a lot of salt and contains antibacterial ingredients, so the vegetation base materials such as mesh, roll, and mat made of palm fiber are good for maintaining structural stability. There has been a limit. In other words, the palm fiber is in a state in which useful microorganisms, such as soil microorganisms and mycorrhizal fungi, which are required for plant growth, cannot grow smoothly due to its high salt content and high antibacterial properties.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a port prepared by including palm fiber and / or jute fiber, but overcomes the high salinity and antimicrobial properties of the palm fiber to lower the salt content, conditions for growth of useful soil microorganisms and mycorrhizal fungi, etc. The purpose is to make it.

In order to achieve the above object, the present inventors cultivate one or more selected from the group consisting of nutrients such as sugarcane sludge, rice bran or molasses and useful microorganisms including soil microorganism and mycorrhizal fungus, to prepare a culture medium, and palm fiber to the culture medium. After immersing for 4 days or more in order to reduce the salt content and to prepare a condition for growth of microorganisms useful for plant growth, the method of producing a pot with the culture fiber immersed palm fiber in this way.

In addition, the present inventors are not simply spraying soil microorganisms and / or useful microbial cultures in the port made of palm fiber or palm fiber, but the palm fiber, coco peat, vegetation base material, etc. By immersing for several days or more and several tens of days, the plant growth inhibitory component contained in palm fiber or the like was reduced or removed, and the port was prepared after sufficiently removing the antimicrobial properties and soil microorganisms and / or useful microorganisms.

Palm fiber may be used alone when preparing the pot of the present invention, it is also possible to form a pot by mixing other vegetable materials such as jute or sugar cane fiber.

In addition, the present inventors may add one or more nutrients such as amylopectin, starch, cellulose, and the like to the raw materials including palm fiber immersed in the microbial culture in preparing the plant cultivation pot, pentosan, melamine and latex It is also possible to prepare the pot by mixing.

The content of the additional ingredient is not particularly limited so long as it does not affect the plant planting function, which is the original function of the pot. As a preferred embodiment, 5 parts by weight of amylopectin, 5 parts by weight of starch, 5 parts by weight of cellulose, 5 parts by weight of pentosan, 5 parts by weight of melamine, based on 100 parts by weight of the raw material including the palm fiber immersed in the microorganism culture medium, 25 parts by weight of the latex is mixed 40 minutes per minute in a mixer for 20 minutes to form a composition. Amylopectin, starch and cellulose have the highest molecular weight of cellulose, resulting in the complete decomposition of glucose. Glucose not only helps the plants grow, but also helps develop the roots.

In addition, pentosan can make the water flow active. Pentosan has an absorption rate that is 15 times that of normal starch. Melamine acts as a nitrogen source at the same time as the adhesive function.

Latex is a natural rubber component that allows the pot to maintain its shape.

There is no particular limitation on the shape of the port, and the flat section may be manufactured in various forms such as circular or rectangular, square, hexagonal, triangular, and pentagonal. There is no particular limitation on the thickness of the pot, and the plant roots planted inside the pot may be formed to be 0.3 to 0.7 mm to allow the water to extend to the outside and to smoothly pass moisture.

Plant cultivation pot of the present invention prepared as described above can increase the vitality of the plant and allow the roots to grow actively, and can move the water inside and outside the pot using a capillary phenomenon to supply an appropriate amount of water to the plant. .

In addition, the plant cultivation pot of the present invention can be transplanted to the desired port after planting and growing plants, and after a certain period of time, the pot is reduced to soil so that the transplanting work is not cumbersome, and the port does not need to be removed, which is environmentally friendly.

In addition, the pot for plant cultivation of the present invention can maintain moisture absorption and breathability and moisture permeability, and has a great effect of preventing the loss of the plant due to running water as compared to the case of planting only the soil in the riverside planting.

The present invention provides a plant cultivation port that is easy to grow microorganisms and plants, which is produced after immersing palm fibers in a useful microbial culture medium such as soil microorganisms, mycorrhizal fungi and lactic acid bacteria for at least 4 days. When the immersion period is less than 4 days, the effect of increasing the growth of microorganisms or plants is not large.

In addition, the present invention is characterized in that at least one selected from the group consisting of sugar cane sludge, molasses, rice bran, organic waste fermentation products, manure, and foliar soil nutrients for cultivating useful microorganisms such as soil microorganisms, mycorrhizal fungi, lactic acid bacteria, etc. .

In addition, the present invention is mixed with the soil microorganisms, mycorrhizal fungi, lactic acid bacteria and other useful soil or soil microbial soil containing soil microorganisms in a ratio of 1: 2 to 10 to obtain a microbial culture by fermentation for 5 to 50 days, Provided is a plant cultivation port that is easy to grow microorganisms and plants, which is made of palm fibers obtained by immersing and drying 1 to 5 palm fiber (or coconut fruit pulverized products) based on the weight of the microorganism culture medium 10.

In addition, the present invention is characterized in that the process of stirring and mixing by adding water 2 to 10 of the obtained microbial culture solution weight 1 standard before immersing the palm fiber (or coconut fruit crushed).

When the coconut fruit is immersed, the palm fiber is sorted after drying to prepare a pot.

The mixing ratio is a range suitable for optimal fermentation and cultivation of useful microorganisms, the microorganism culture efficiency is lowered outside the above range. In addition, if the period is less than 4 days, the growth effect of the plant is not great, and if more than 50 days, useful microorganisms are no longer significantly increased.

In addition, the present invention provides a pot for plant cultivation, wherein at least one of amylopectin, starch, and cellulose is added to a raw material including palm fiber immersed in the microbial culture solution.

In another aspect, the present invention provides a pot for plant cultivation, characterized in that at least one of pentosan or melamine is mixed with a raw material including a palm fiber immersed in the microorganism culture medium.

As the vegetable fiber constituting the pot of the present invention, palm fiber may be used alone, or other vegetable materials such as jute or sugarcane fiber may be mixed to form a pot.

The pot of the present invention has a salt content of 0.1% by weight or less by immersing the microbial culture solution.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention in more detail. However, it is apparent to those skilled in the art that the configuration of the present invention is not limited to the following description.

In the present invention, useful microorganisms are not particularly limited as long as they are known to have a good effect on plant growth. In general, useful microorganisms include microorganisms such as soil microorganisms, mycorrhizal fungi, lactic acid bacteria and photosynthetic bacteria. Useful microbial fermentation is carried out by adding nutrients, but if it can be a nutrient source for microbial culture, there are no particular restrictions on the types of rice bran, organic waste fermentation product, manure, and foliar soil, but preferably sugar cane sludge or molasses is used. . Sugar cane sludge is cut into 1-1.5 cm using a grinder and dried in cool shade for 2-3 days. After keeping the humidity content around 35%, it is mixed with soil microorganisms and fermented for 20 to 25 days.

Soil microbes are obtained from the natural topsoil layer. The topsoil layer is a natural soil that is not artificially formed. It means less than 5cm of soil from the ground, and the time taken to form a 5cm topsoil layer is about 200 years or more. The soil is collected from the topsoil and sifted using a fine 1 mm sieve to prepare only the fine soil. The superior soil is the soil which is pressed down by 2 ~ 3㎝ when the soil is pressed by hand. The soil is collected from the part where the soil ecosystem is preserved in the place with the quality soil, and used as soil microorganism. The collected soil microorganisms are stored in a place where the sunlight is blocked at 35 ~ 45%, the humidity is maintained at 70 ~ 80%, and the temperature is adjusted to 25 ~ 27 ℃.

During useful microbial fermentation, it supplements moisture to maintain 35 ~ 45% of shading, 85 ~ 90% of humidity, and keeps fermentation temperature at 27 ℃ ± 2 ℃. Invert the air over 48 hours to 60 hours to distribute the air. At the time of work, microbial fermentation is smooth, so it pays utmost attention to temperature and moisture supplementation for a scented smell.

In addition, in the present invention, in addition to the soil microorganisms, mycorrhizal fungi may be used as an effective microorganism group (Effective Microorganism; EM) or a mixture of soil microorganisms and effective microorganisms. An effective microbial group was developed to increase agricultural productivity. It is a microbial group composed of lactic acid bacteria such as Lactobacillus genus, yeasts such as Saccharomyces genus, photosynthetic bacteria and actinomyces. It is useful for plant cells by producing enzymes and bioactive substances that activate plant cells. An effective microbial group can use a commercially available thing or what was cultured.

An example of using the soil microorganism as the useful microorganism of the present invention is as follows.

3 tons of sugarcane sludge per 1 ton of soil containing soil microorganisms are mixed and fermented for 20 to 25 days to form soil microorganism culture soil and mixed with 10 tons of water. When mixed, keep the sunlight shaded at 60 ~ 70% or more, and use 30 ~ 40 air to dissolve a lot of water while drawing a circle using a soft bar when mixing soil microorganism culture soil with water. Stir for a minute.

Water temperature is maintained at 25 ~ 27 ℃ in the step of fermentation for 2-3 days by mixing soil microbial culture soil and water. The palm and / or jute fibers prepared in the soil microbial culture tank are immersed at random.

Soak 2 tons of vegetable fiber, such as palm fiber, on the basis of 5 tons of water, which can be inverted at intervals of 4 hours to sufficiently absorb the soil microbial culture solution.

In addition to soil microbial culture soil or soil microorganism containing soil, the production of fermentation broth of useful microbial group also applies the soil microorganism fermentation broth production method.

In this way, the content of salt in palm fiber can be reduced as much as possible, and the vegetable fiber such as palm fiber added to the soil microbial culture solution is immersed in the soil microbial culture tank after being immersed for 20 to 30 days and blocked by 45-50% of sunlight. Spread and dry. Drying should be such that the moisture content is about 70% ± 5%. After drying, repeat the above process once more if necessary.

Normally, it can be dried in about 20 days, but it takes about 40 to 50 days when it rains or snows.

In addition to the method of immersing the palm fiber as described above, the coconut fruit cuts are immersed in a useful microbial culture medium, and then the dried coconut fruit cuts are crushed with a grinder, and then the selected palm fibers are sorted by coco peat and palm fiber using a sorter. It is also possible to use for pot manufacture.

After immersing in a useful microbial culture medium, a method for producing a plant cultivation pot using plant fiber, such as dry palm fiber, is apparent to those skilled in the art, and an example is exemplified below.

Plant cultivation pot production process of the present invention comprises the steps of first feeding the plant fiber strands, such as palm fibers, jute fibers in a hopper and then supplying a predetermined amount to a feeding machine; Manufacturing a mat shape by feeding the fiber strands from the paper feeding machine to the other surface and laminating them to a predetermined thickness and width; Pressing the manufactured mat; Spraying a natural adhesive such as latex; Adhesive is sprayed to compress the fiber strands having adhesion to each other to bond the fiber strands together; The fiber strand is bonded to form a mat formed irregular irregular eyes into a port-shaped mold; is completed through.

It can be seen that the pots made from normal pots and three-day soaked fibers showed little difference in plant growth rate, while the pots made from five-day and 20-day soaked fibers significantly promoted gujeolcho growth.

Plant planting pot of the present invention after filling the soil to maintain the shape of the pot. When filling the soil, plastic pots fill about 80% by volume of soil or soil, while palm pots may fill 80-100% by volume of soil or soil. When watering plants, watering can be used, or even mist or sprinkler, water is flowed even if only one side is supplied, so it is advantageous for the smooth growth of plants. Because it is easily discharged through numerous through holes, root rot does not occur as in a plastic pot.

The pot of the present invention can produce a strong seedling because it is easy to manage moisture after planting seedlings or seedlings, and the roots are not injured since the pots can be transplanted during planting after seedling production. In addition, amylopectin, starch, cellulose, pentosan, and the like can nourish the plant due to moisturizing and conversion to glucose, thereby significantly improving the plant's initial activity.
