Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of modern agricultural hydroponic technology and modern agricultural facility construction / equipment manufacturing technology, and particularly relates to a hydroponic method and a hydroponic device with a nutrient solution buffering system. BACKGROUND

[0002] Hydroponic technology is a plant cultivation technology developed in recent decades, which does not use soil to cultivate plants but allows the roots of plants to grow in nutrient solution to provide water, nutrients, air and temperature required by plants throughout the growth cycle.

[0003] Conditions to be met: the seed tank can hold nutrient solution without leakage; the plant can be anchored and the root system can be immersed in the nutrient solution; the nutrient solution and the root system are in the dark; the container holding the nutrient solution needs to be sterilized; the root system needs to obtain sufficient oxygen; the nutrient solution needs to be replaced regularly.

[0004] Types of hydroponic technology: deep liquid flow hydroponic technology, shallow liquid flow hydroponic technology, floating plate and capillary hydroponic technology, and nutrient film technology.

[0005] Hydroponic infrastructure structure: (1) nutrient solution tank. The nutrient solution tank is a device for storing nutrient solution. (2) Cultivation bed. The cultivation bed consists of two parts: bed body and cultivation board. (3) Nutrient solution system. The nutrient solution system includes three parts: liquid adding system, liquid draining system and circulation system.

[0006] The advantages of hydroponic production technology are increasingly valued by people. Hydroponic planting of vegetables has the advantages of short production cycle, high yield and simple operation. Hydroponic technology will be widely used in production.

[0007] In the process of hydroponic experiment or production, no matter what kind of nutrient solution exposed soilless cultivation method, such as hydroponics, fog culture, etc., green algae will grow and reproduce seriously. Green algae are contained in ordinary air and water used to prepare nutrient solution. Since green algae like fertilizer, moisture and light, they will reproduce and expand rapidly in the nutrient solution as soon as they enter the nutrient solution. Moreover, green algae have certain adhesion ability and will adhere to the inner surface of the hydroponic device and the plant roots.

[0008] The massive reproduction and huge increase of green algae will compete with plants for nutrients and dissolved oxygen, affecting the normal growth of plants. At the same time, green algae release some harmful substances to the nutrient solution during their life activities and metabolism, which have adverse effects on the normal growth of plants. Especially when there are more green algae, they will adhere to the surface of plant roots in large quantities, inhibit the life activities of roots, and block the absorption of water and nutrients by plant roots, directly and rapidly leading to the death of plants.

[0009] At present, green algae mainly removes or reduces the concentration of phosphorus and nitrogen by adsorption to inhibit (CN111377495A), but this method has high cost, incomplete removal, low nutrient content, and cannot be used for plant hydroponics; therefore, a green algae inhibition method suitable for plant hydroponics needs to be developed.
