Problems solved by technology

Therefore, although air pruning is beneficial to cultivated plants, the use of such containers results in a transplanting effect that hinders the growth of plants after they are transplanted.

Embodiment Construction

[0031] The plant cultivation container of the present invention mainly includes a hollow unit 10 having a vertically movable base 20 .

[0032] Such as figure 1 As shown, the plant growing container has a relatively vertical configuration and is a substantially upright container comprising hollow cells 10 . The container may have any suitable shape and generally includes side walls 11 , a base 20 and an open top 12 . The hollow unit 10 may be uniformly shaped over its entire height, or may have a tapered configuration. The tapered configuration of the hollow cell 10 may taper towards its base 20 or top 12 , ie downward or upward. Such as figure 1 As shown, the plant growing container may be an inverted truncated pyramid-shaped hollow container having four side walls 11 , an open top 12 and a base 20 wherein the top 12 is wider than the base 20 .

[0033] The plant growing container may be made of any suitable durable and non-rigid material that is sufficiently strong but n...

Abstract

A plant cultivating container comprising a hollow cell (10) for holding a growing medium and a plant. The cell has side walls (11), a base (20) and an open top (12). Air vents (30) are disposed on the side walls of the container. The base is vertically-movable base with guide tabs (21) which are extendable though an air vent. When the vertically-movable base is pushed upwards to eject the cultivated plant, the vertical movement is guided by engagement of the tabs within the air vents resulting in uniform support at all sides of the base. This enables the removal of the growing medium and the plant cultivated within it, in a substantially compact unit resulting in minimized root damage and transplant shock to the cultivated plant. The air vents of the plant cultivating container further comprises retaining flaps (31) to aid in the pruning of the roots.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a plant cultivation container. More specifically, the present invention relates to an easily removable plant growing container for plants that facilitate cultivation. Background technique [0002] Plant growing containers are a popular way to grow plants. This is because the environment contained in the container can be controlled to a greater degree and there is no competition since there is only one plant per container. The growing conditions and needs of each plant are cared for individually. Once the plant has passed its early growth stages, it will be ready to be transplanted into an open area. [0003] Previously, simple containers were used to grow plants. Such simple containers generally include side walls, a base and an open top. The base may be provided with drainage holes to allow excess water in the soil to drain freely. [0004] Conventional methods of growing plants in simple containers create problems when ...
