Embodiment

[0070] The following examples were carried out in southern Finland in May.

[0071] Basil seeds are embedded in eight seed boxes made of rock wool. Four of the seed boxes were placed in plastic containers, while the remaining four seed boxes were placed in counter-sized gardening equipment designed to perform the plant growing methods of the present invention. Plastic containers are placed on the south windowsill, while artificial light for gardening equipment follows the figure 2 Adjust as shown.

[0072] Both systems water at the same frequency, but utilize ebb and flow irrigation in gardening equipment.

[0073] The germination rate is increased by 20% to 30% by the method of the invention compared to the method performed on the windowsill. image 3 and Figure 4 The pictures taken at 2.5 weeks after initiation of the windowsill method and the method of the invention are shown, respectively. It is clear, image 3 The seedlings shown in are not vigorous enough to prod...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a hydroponic method of growing plants from seeds. In the method, different growth phases are carried out under different photosynthetic photon flux densities and, preferably, under specifically adjusted ratios of red, blue, green, and, optionally, yellow light to one another. In some embodiments, irrigation is achieved by the ebb and flow phenomenon.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to hydroponics (hydroponics) for growing (planting) plants from seeds. Background technique [0002] Growing plants indoors for edible and decorative purposes is becoming more and more popular these days. Accordingly, a variety of gardening and plant growing equipment is available. [0003] Often, beginners may prefer to buy already grown flowers and kitchen plants, such as herbs. Equipment is provided for extending the life of kitchen plants, but in most cases they will remain viable for a few days to a few weeks at most. [0004] More experienced growers may prefer to grow plants from seed. However, the temperature and light conditions in the house are not suitable for obtaining strong, vigorous and vigorous seedlings. Therefore, more elaborate growing methods and equipment are required in order to meet the plant's demands and obtain viable seedlings and mature plants. [0005] Hydroponics is the cultivation of plan...
