The invention belongs to the technical field of cultivating flowers or vegetables or rice in a container or a forcing hotbed or a greenhouse, and discloses an edible amaranth cultivation device. The edible amaranth cultivation device comprises an installation rack, a planting box and a balance box are fixed to the installation rack, a planting rack is fixed into the planting box, a plurality of planting holes are formed in the planting rack, and a sliding plate is slidably and hermetically arranged on the part, below the planting rack, in the planting box. A water inlet pipe is communicated with the portion, between the planting rack and the sliding plate, on the planting box, and a water inlet valve is arranged on the water inlet pipe; a balance pipe is communicated with the portion between the bottom of the planting box and the bottom of the balance box, and water is injected into the balance box, the balance pipe and the portion, below the sliding plate, of the planting box; a pushplate is slidably and hermetically arranged on the portion, above the water surface, in the balance box, and a push rod which drives reciprocating rotation of the water inlet valve is fixed to the topsurface of the push plate. By means of the edible amaranth cultivation device, the problems are solved that in the prior art, soil in a planting pot is loose, so that the soil easily falls off from abottom hole, and soil loss is caused.
