Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide a medium for plant cultivation, which enables greening work to be completed easily in a short period of time. [Structure] A plant cultivation medium 1 is one in which a medium body 3 made of a porous material is loaded inside a lattice body 2 formed in a rectangular tube shape. The medium body 3 is provided with a planting hole 4 for planting a seedling of the ivy A, and the back surface 3b is formed in an uneven shape.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial application]

 The present invention relates to a medium for plant cultivation, and more particularly to a medium for plant cultivation suitable for cultivation of vine plants such as ivy.

[0002]

[Prior art and its problems]

 Normally, if the soil surface is left uncovered in parks, city streets, river banks, etc., it will not only be aesthetically pleasing, but also dust will occur, and problems such as runoff of sand and sand during rainfall will occur.

Therefore, turfgrass is cultivated on the entire soil surface, and a greening work is performed to cover the soil surface with the turfgrass.

However, turfgrass does not grow unless it is in a sunny place and dies. Therefore, ivy, which grows even in a bad environment such as a place with poor sunlight, is often used for greening work instead of turfgrass.

[0005] greening works with ivy that described above, planting a sprig of ivy to nurture pot, what vine has grown to about 30cm and seedlings, which 1m ² per 20 to 30 pot about planting the soil surface, soil The ivy grows in a dense state on the entire surface.

However, after planting the ivy seedlings on the soil surface, it takes about 10 to 15 months to grow into the above-mentioned dense state, and during this time, it takes time for management work such as removal of weeds and pests. This increases the economic burden.

Then, the subject of this invention is to provide the culture medium for plant cultivation which can complete a greening construction easily in a short period of time.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is to fill a medium body made of a porous material having a concave and convex back surface inside a square tubular lattice material, and to plant a plant in this medium body. That is, the configuration is adopted.

Further, it is also possible to adopt a configuration in which an edge frame is attached to the lattice body and locking projections that can be locked to the supporting rails are additionally provided.

[0010]

[Action]

 The medium for plant cultivation according to the present invention having the above-described configuration allows the roots of the plants held in the planting holes to grow without being disturbed by absorbing water and nutrients stored in the porous medium body. To do.

Further, when the plant cultivation medium is placed on the soil surface, the air flowing in from the space formed between the concave portion on the back surface of the medium body and the soil surface spreads over the entire medium body and is planted. Promote root growth of plants.

Further, since the locking projections attached to the opposite sides of the edge frame of the plant cultivation medium are locked to the supporting rails, a wall surface is formed between the supporting rails.

[0013]

【Example】

 As shown in FIG. 1, a medium 1 for cultivating a plant is prepared by loading a polyurethane medium body 3 having open cells from an opening end face inside a lattice body 2 formed of a synthetic resin material in a rectangular tube shape, The ivy A seedlings are planted and cultivated on this.

As shown in FIG. 2, the culture medium body 3 has a planting hole 4 formed in the center of the surface 3a thereof, and the seedlings of the ivy A are inserted and held in this hole. The back surface 3b is formed in a corrugated uneven shape so that when it is placed on the soil surface, air flows in from the space formed between the concave portion and the soil surface.

The culture medium 1 thus configured is lightweight and easy to move. In addition, the vine A planted has its vines extending over the entire surface of the culture medium 1 using the lattice body 2 and the roots growing using the porous portion of the culture medium body 3, which is suitable for cultivation of the vine A. ing.

Next, a large number of vines A are grown on the entire surface of the culture medium 1 as a unit structure. Then, as shown in FIG. 3, the medium 1 is combined and placed according to the shape of the soil surface, and fixed on the soil surface using the fixing nails 9 to complete the greening work.

At this time, since the back surface of the lattice body 2 is in close contact with the soil surface and the medium body 3 is interposed between the plant body and the soil surface, the filamentous fungus or bacterium that propagates on the soil surface contacts the ivy A. The growth of vine A is not disturbed by filamentous fungi and bacteria. In addition, the generation of dust and the outflow of sediment will be immediately prevented.

Then, the ivy A planted in the medium 1 has its main roots settled on the soil surface through the planting holes 4, and absorbs water and nutrients from the soil so that the ivy A grows on the entire surface of the medium 1. become.

The frame 2 can also be formed of a metal material, wood, stone material, glass material, or the like. The medium body 3 can also be formed of sponge, cloth, pulp, cotton, or the like.

Next, with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5, a wall-forming plant-cultivating medium 10 (hereinafter, referred to as a wall surface medium) that is locked by a pair of upright rail bodies B will be described.

The wall medium 10 has a structure in which an edge frame 6 made of a hard synthetic resin material or a lightweight metal material, which is separately provided, is fitted and attached to the outer edge of the medium 1. The edge frame 6 has locking ribs 7 projecting outward at both ends. As shown in FIG. 5, the rail body B is formed with guide grooves 8 extending in the up-down direction on the respective facing surfaces.

The wall surface culture medium 10 having the above-described configuration is used as a unit configuration, and a plurality of these are prepared. Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the rib 7 of the wall surface culture medium 10 is fitted into the guide groove 8 of the rail body B, the wall surface culture medium 10 is locked between the rail bodies B, and these are sequentially stacked to form a vertical wall surface. Form. By doing this, it is possible to form the standing wall of the building on the wall that is planted with vines in a short period of time.

Since the vertical wall thus formed has a structure in which plants are planted in a porous material, it is also excellent in soundproofing and coldproofing.

[0024]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, the present invention has a structure in which a medium for plant cultivation is loaded with a medium body made of a porous material inside the lattice, so that a unit structure is obtained by cultivating a plant on the surface of the medium in advance. The greening work is completed by simply fixing these to the entire surface according to the shape of the soil surface. Therefore, the construction period can be significantly shortened and the construction is easy.

Further, by providing a locking projection on the plant cultivation medium and locking this on a supporting rail, an upright wall such as a wall surface of a building can be greened by the plant cultivation medium in a short period of time.
