Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a flower transport box using a self-adsorbing nutrient solution. Background Technology
[0002] Flowers are the reproductive organs of angiosperms (plants in the phylum Angiosperms, also known as flowering plants). Their biological function is to combine male sperm cells and female egg cells to produce seeds. This process begins with pollination, followed by fertilization, which then forms seeds and facilitates their dispersal. For higher plants, seeds are their next generation; the seeds then grow into flowers, which are then pollinated and fertilized again, thus perpetuating the life of that variety of flower. Furthermore, it is the primary means by which species distribute themselves in nature. The combination of flowers growing on the same plant is called an inflorescence. In a broad sense, fresh flowers can refer to all plant reproductive organs with ornamental value, while in a narrow sense, it refers specifically to all flowering plants. Besides being reproductive organs for angiosperms, flowers have always been widely loved and used, primarily for beautifying the environment, facilitating interpersonal communication, and also as a food source. Flowers consist of a corolla, calyx, receptacle, and stamens, and come in various colors, some very vibrant, and some fragrant. To prolong the life of fresh flowers after purchase, certain measures must be taken. Below are some tips to maximize the freshness of fresh flowers. Pre-treatment methods before placing flowers in a vase: 1. Underwater cutting method: Cut the flower stems underwater, ensuring the cut doesn't contact air when separated from the mother plant, but the flower head must remain above the water surface. 2. Heat treatment methods: There are two heat treatment methods: scalding and scorching. Scalding involves immersing the ends of herbaceous flower stems in boiling water for 10 seconds or hot water for 2 minutes before inserting them into the vase. This seals the cut and prevents the leakage of sap, thus prolonging the flowering period. Scorching involves burning the ends of woody flower stems over a flame for 2-3 minutes, then cutting off a small portion of the charred stem, soaking it in alcohol for 1 minute, rinsing it in clean water, and then inserting it into the vase. This prevents the vascular tissue from being blocked and also prevents bacterial infection at the cut, ensuring a continuous water supply to the flowers. 3. Physical treatment of cuts: First, cut the flower stem at an angle to increase the surface area for water absorption. Second, for brittle stems, break them off by hand to widen the cut and prevent damage to the vascular tissue. Third, split the cut lengthwise into several sections and embed small pebbles to prop it open. Fourth, gently crush about 3 cm of the cut stem to increase the water absorption area and prolong the life of the cut flowers. Generally, herbaceous flowers are best treated with an angled cut and widened cut, while woody plants are best treated with breaking branches and crushing. 4. Nutrient enhancement: Adding a small amount of salt, beer, or aspirin powder to the water in the vase is less effective than diluting a small amount of 84 disinfectant to keep flowers fresh longer. However, note that flowers treated with diluted 84 disinfectant are only suitable for ornamental purposes. Summary of the Invention
