Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the cultivation of miniature vegetable by charging raising seedling bed soil in each seedling raising pot, placing the pot in an upside-down state into a seedling box for holding a seedling raising vessel, sowing the seed of bulbous vegetable in each seedling raising pot and culturing the vegetable. CONSTITUTION:A seedling raising vessel 1 is placed on a plate 3 and a sufficient amount of bed soil 4 is charged into the vessel to form a layer of definite thickness above the top of the pot 1a. A seedling box 2 is put on the seedling raising vessel and turned upside down. The plate 3 on the vessel is removed and a protrusion is thrust into the soil through a sprouting hole 1a to form a sowing hole (b). A seed 6 of a bulbous vegetable is sowed in each sowing hole (b) and covered with soil 5. The covering soil 5 is also put between the seedling raising pots. When the soil is irrigated in the above state, the vegetable is sprouted through the sprout hole 1a and bulb is grown in the pot. The growth on the bulb is restricted by the bottom face of the seedling box 2 and the side walls of the pot to obtain a miniature bulbous vegetable which can be eaten at a mouthful. Since the vegetable is grown in the pot, photosynthesis is prevented to achieve a sufficient growth of the bulb.

従来技術とその問題点 従来、球根野菜を栽培するには、その野菜の成長を阻害
しないように、平床に種を蒔いて栽培されていた。した
がって、収獲される野菜は兄事な大きさに成育して、こ
の野菜を食べるには、小さく切って料理しないと食べら
れなかった。Conventional technology and its problems Conventionally, bulbous vegetables have been cultivated by sowing seeds in flat beds so as not to inhibit the growth of the vegetables. As a result, the vegetables that were harvested grew to enormous sizes, and in order to be eaten, one had to cut them into small pieces and cook them.

は、その味が悪いと謂う一面があった。Therefore, recently, small-sized vegetables such as cherry tomatoes have appeared on the market, but these have been produced by cultivating vegetables that do not grow large due to vegetable breeding, or by harvesting vegetables before they have fully grown. Therefore, such conventional mini-vegetables have a bad taste.

A seedling growing pot (a) made of synthetic resin or pulp material, which has a germination hole 1a in the center of the bottom and has a sloped side wall that expands outward from the outer periphery of the bottom, with the upper ends of each side wall being continuous with each other. A seedling raising device 1 for forming a group of seedling raising pots is placed in a seedling box 2 in which the seedling raising device 1 is housed, filling each seedling raising pot with seedling bed soil 4 and fitting them upside down, A method for cultivating bulbous vegetables was provided in which seeds of bulbous vegetables, such as onions and carrots, which grow larger than the diameter of the germination hole, are sown and cultivated in each of the seedling-raising pots.

発明の作用及び効果 この発明によると、小さな育苗ポット内で栽培される野
菜の球根が成育されて、左右側に成長するには育苗ポッ
トの側壁面がこれを妨害し、下方に成長するには苗箱底
面があって成育が妨害され。Functions and Effects of the Invention According to the present invention, vegetable bulbs grown in a small seedling pot are grown, and the side walls of the seedling pot obstruct this from growing to the left and right, and from growing downward. The bottom of the seedling box is interfering with growth.

しかも、各育苗ポットは互いに多数連続しているから下
方に成長して育苗器を苗箱底面から浮上させようとして
も無闇に浮上せず、球根野菜でありながらその成育が阻
害される。したがって、ポットで一口で食べられるよう
なミニ野菜が栽培できる。Moreover, since many seedling pots are connected to each other, the seedlings grow downward, and even if you try to raise the seedling pot from the bottom of the seedling box, the seedlings will not float up, and even though they are bulbous vegetables, their growth will be inhibited. Therefore, mini-vegetables that can be eaten in one bite can be grown in a pot.

1 is a seedling raising device used as a cultivation material, and is molded with 1 paper pulp. The structure is that a germination hole 1a of approximately 0.5 cm square is bored in the center of the bottom surface of 1 to 2 cm square, and a side wall surface is provided outward and upward from the outer periphery of the bottom surface, and the opening is 1.5 cm square. A 2.5 cm square seedling growing pot (a) is constructed, and the upper end of the side wall surface of each seedling growing pot is connected to the upper end of the side wall surface of the other pot, forming a rectangular shape as a whole.

２は苗箱で、前記育苗器１が嵌合して挿入できる合成樹
脂からなるものであり、その底面には小さな水抜き孔２
ａが穿たれている。2 is a seedling box made of synthetic resin into which the seedling raising device 1 can be fitted and inserted, and a small drainage hole 2 is provided in the bottom of the box.
A is pierced.

栽培工程は９次の通りである。The cultivation process is as follows.

板３の上に、第３図の通り育苗器１を敷設し、床土４を
溢れ出て一定層がポット１ａの上に出来る状態に詰める
。A seedling raising device 1 is placed on a board 3 as shown in FIG. 3, and the bed soil 4 is packed so that it overflows and forms a certain layer on the pot 1a.

その上から苗箱２を第４図の通りに被せ、第５図の通り
天地返しをする。その後、上になった板３を除き１発芽
孔１ａから突起を突込み、播種孔（ロ）を形成する。Place the seedling box 2 over it as shown in Figure 4, and turn it upside down as shown in Figure 5. Thereafter, the upper plate 3 is removed and a protrusion is inserted through one germination hole 1a to form a seeding hole (b).

その後、球根野菜の種子６を一粒づつ播種孔（ロ）に蒔
き、覆土５し、かつ、その覆土５は各育苗ポット間にも
詰める。Thereafter, seeds 6 of bulbous vegetables are sown one by one in the seeding holes (B) and covered with soil 5, and the covering soil 5 is also packed between each pot for growing seedlings.

この状態で、潅水して栽培すると、発芽孔１ａから発芽
して第７図で示す通り球根がポット内で成長し、苗箱２
の底面とポットの側壁面とで球根の成長が妨害されて、
小さな一口で食べられる程度の球根野菜が栽培される。If you water and cultivate in this state, the bulbs will germinate from the germination hole 1a and grow in the pot as shown in Figure 7, and the bulbs will grow in the seedling box 1a.
The growth of the bulbs is obstructed by the bottom of the pot and the side walls of the pot.
Bulb vegetables are grown that can be eaten in small bites.

このようにして栽培されるが、野菜はポット内で成長す
るから光合成されないで十分な成育がされる。Vegetables are cultivated in this way, but because they are grown inside the pot, they are not photosynthesized and are able to grow to their full potential.

尚、紙パルプの育苗器１で栽培すると、球根がこのポッ
トを破り成長し始めると収穫すればよいからその収穫が
簡単である。In addition, if the bulbs are grown in the paper pulp seedling grower 1, the bulbs can be easily harvested as soon as they break through the pot and begin to grow.
