AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patented technology involves preparation of an improved growing material made from recycled or waste products like rice straw (a type of wood fiber) that contains various nutrients such as phytolipin which helps plants grow stronger without being affected by harmful germs. It also includes palmatic acid added along with some vegetable scrains called cereals grabbers' seeds. These technical improvements help improve the quality of these types of feedstock used on fava beans grown throughout North America.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes various technical methods aimed towards solving issues with growing watermilons due to factors like crop rotations caused by insect attack during their vegetative phase. These challenges include lack of effective root systems to absorb moisture from rainwater while maintaining good quality roots, difficulty controlling stem height, difficulties in culturing weakly resistant plants, and environmental concerns associated therewith.

Embodiment 1

[0013] Example 1 Preparation and Screening of Watermelon Functional Seedling Substrate

specific Embodiment approach 1

[0014] Specific implementation mode one: The preparation process and preparation steps of watermelon functional seedling-raising substrate:

[0015] 1) After the wheat is harvested normally, take the special wheat straw root stubble from the planting place, clean it, dry it naturally, crush it, and set it aside;

[0016] 2) Mix wheat root stubble with peat and vermiculite evenly, so that the volume fraction ratio of peat, vermiculite and wheat residue is 2:1:0.375;

[0017] 3) Prepare a palmitic acid solution with a concentration of 0.5mmol / L (the content of acetone should not be higher than 2%). The mass ratio of the above mixed substrate to the solution is 4:1, that is, the amount of palmitic acid added is 256ppm of the total mass of the seedling substrate;

[0018] 4) Mix all the above materials evenly, put them into a woven bag, and let them stand in a cool place for 3 days, then open and dry to make a mixed culture medium for seedling cultivation.

specific Embodiment approach 2

[0019] Embodiment 2: The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in step 1, the wheat variety is not a single variety, but a mixed stubble of various wheat varieties. Other steps and parameters are the same as those in Embodiment 1.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of agriculture and discloses a functional seedling culturing substrate formula applicable to crop seedling culture of cucumbers, watermelons and melons, and a preparation method thereof. The functional seedling culturing substrate formula comprises turf, vermiculite, wheat stubbles and a palmitic acid solution, wherein the volume ratio of the turf to the vermiculite to the wheat stubbles is 2: 1: 0.375; the mass ratio of a substrate to the solution is 4: 1; the adding amount of the palmitic acid is 0.0256% of the total mass of a seedling culturing substrate. According to the functional seedling culturing substrate formula, the components are environment-friendly and pollution-free; the anti-disease capability of the seedling culturing substrate can be improved; compared with an existing seedling culturing substrate containing farmyard manure and a water-retaining agent, the functional seedling culturing substrate formula has the advantages of abundant raw materials, low cost, convenient manufacturing, capability of changing wastes into valuable things and the like. Self-rooted seedlings cultured by using the substrate do not need supplement of nutrient solutions; seedlings are regular and strong, do not excessively grow and have flourishing root system; the ecological environment of the soil can be improved after the seedlings are planted together with the substrate; the soil-borne pathogens can be effectively prevented and the output of melon products is improved.
