Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of seed cultivation, and in particular to a melon seed cultivation device and a cultivation method. Background Art

[0002] Muskmelon is an annual vine herb belonging to the genus Muskmelon in the Cucurbitaceae family. Melon seeds are flat oval or egg-shaped, mostly white, light yellow or brown in color, with a smooth or slightly textured surface.

[0003] When cultivating melon seeds through seedling transplanting, the germination time of seeds in different cultivation pots is different, and the growth rate after germination is also different, which leads to different growth rates of melon seeds in different cultivation pots. For melon seeds with different growth rates, the water consumption in the soil inside the cultivation pot is different, and for melon seedlings with different growth rates, the fertilizer requirements are also different, so different water and fertilizers need to be applied to the seedlings in different cultivation pots. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art and to propose a melon seed cultivation device and a cultivation method.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a melon seed cultivation device, comprising a cultivation rack, and further comprising:

[0006] A plurality of shelves are fixed on the side walls of the cultivation rack in a linear array;

[0007] Multiple groups of culture pots, a number of said culture pots form a group, and said culture pots in the same group are placed on the same shelf in a linear array;

[0008] A plurality of growth identification components are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the shelves, and are respectively installed on the corresponding shelves, and are used to detect the germination conditions inside the cultivation pots placed on the shelves;

[0009] A plurality of water adding components are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the shelves and are respectively installed on the corresponding shelves, and are used to pull out the cultivated seedlings with different growth conditions in groups for separate corresponding water and fertilizer addition;

[0010] The staff planted melon seeds in the cultivation pots, 2-3 seeds in each cultivation pot, and then watered all the cultivation pots thoroughly, and placed the watered cultivation pots neatly on the shelf. After a period of time, the melon seeds in the cultivation pots began to germinate, and the growth recognition component was activated at this time. A growth recognition component regularly monitors the growth of the seeds in the cultivation pots on the same shelf after germination;

[0011] For melon seeds that germinate faster, the first topdressing can be carried out when the seedlings grow 1-2 true leaves. At this time, the growth identification component identifies the seedlings that have grown 1-2 true leaves, and marks the corresponding cultivation pots, so that after the water adding component is started, the marked cultivation pots are driven to move and pull out synchronously, so that the cultivation pots with seedlings that have grown 1-2 true leaves inside can be pulled out separately, and then the water adding component adds water and fertilizers to them separately, which is conducive to avoiding the situation that when the seedlings inside the cultivation pots need topdressing, the seeds inside some cultivation pots do not grow enough, causing the seeds that do not grow enough inside the cultivation pots to be topdressed synchronously and cause root burn, which is conducive to avoiding the situation that the slow-growing seeds die due to overfertilization;

[0012] For melon seeds that germinate slowly, if you water them in large quantities before they germinate or when they germinate slowly, it is easy for the seeds to accumulate water and die. At this time, when watering the cultivation pots uniformly, you need to pull out the cultivation pots with seeds that are growing well and need watering for unified watering. This will help avoid watering the slow-growing seeds during unified watering, which will cause the seeds to die, thereby helping to improve the survival rate of the seeds.

[0013] Preferably, the water adding assembly comprises:

[0014] The movable plate is slidably mounted inside the shelf, and two ends thereof pass through the clearance slots at two ends of the shelf;

[0015] A sealing edge is fixed to the edge of the shelf, and the bottom of the movable plate is adapted to the sealing edge;

[0016] Two cylinders are symmetrically fixed at two ends of the shelf, and together drive the moving plate to move through a telescopic rod;

[0017] A plurality of locking components, which are arranged one by one corresponding to the culture pots on the shelf, and are respectively installed between the movable plate and the corresponding culture pots, and are used to lock the movable plate and the culture pots;

[0018] An isolation component is installed above the shelf and is used to isolate the removed cultivation pot from the remaining cultivation pots to form a water and fertilizer space after the movable plate drives the cultivation pot to move;

[0019] A water inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the side wall of the movable plate. When it is necessary to water the seeds in the cultivation pot, after the growth identification component identifies the cultivation pot corresponding to the seeds that need to be watered and fertilized, the locking component is activated to lock the cultivation pot and the movable plate. Then, after the cylinder is started, the movable plate is driven to move through the telescopic rod, and the movable plate drives the cultivation pot to move. After the movable plate moves, it abuts against the edge of the sealing edge, thereby forming a seal with the sealing edge. Then, the isolation component is started to isolate the inside of the shelf, so that a water and fertilizer space is formed between the isolation component and the movable plate. At this time, as the movable plate moves, the water and fertilizer space is The cultivation pot with a movable plate is located inside the water and fertilizer space, and then water and fertilizer are transported to the water and fertilizer space through the water inlet pipe, so that the water and fertilizer are accumulated inside the water and fertilizer space and the bottom of the cultivation pot is submerged, so that the cultivation pot absorbs water and fertilizer from the bottom upwards, which is beneficial to avoid the situation where excessive watering and water accumulation inside the cultivation pot are caused by direct watering, so that the cultivation pot that needs watering can be watered appropriately, and the cultivation pot that does not need watering is outside the water and fertilizer space, which is beneficial to avoid the situation where seeds with poor growth grow too long or even die due to excessive water and fertilizer.

[0020] Preferably, the isolation assembly comprises:

[0021] A horizontal plate, fixed to the side wall of the culture rack and located above the shelf;

[0022] Two second screw rods are symmetrically rotatably installed between the horizontal plate and the shelf;

[0023] Two second motors are symmetrically fixed above the horizontal plate, and respectively drive the two second screw rods to rotate through output shafts;

[0024] Two threaded sleeves, respectively threadedly sleeved on the outer rings of the two second screw rods;

[0025] An isolation plate is fixed between the two threaded sleeves, and the isolation plate is moved downward to isolate the interior of the shelf;

[0026] After the second motor is started, it drives the second screw connected to it to rotate through the output shaft. After the second screw rotates, it drives the threaded sleeve threadedly connected to it to move vertically. The threaded sleeve drives the isolation plate to move vertically. After the isolation plate moves downward, it is isolated inside the shelf, thereby isolating the inside of the shelf, so that the position inside the shelf that needs water is isolated from the position that does not need water, which helps to avoid water accumulation in the position that does not need water, causing excessive watering of seeds inside the cultivation pot.

[0027] Preferably, the isolation assembly further comprises:

[0028] A rubber strip fixed to the edge of the isolation plate, and squeezed to form a seal when the isolation plate contacts the shelf;

[0029] When the isolation plate moves downward, the rubber strip is squeezed so that the rubber strip seals the gap between the isolation plate and the shelf through its own deformation, thereby facilitating full isolation of the two areas formed by the isolation and preventing water and fertilizer from seeping out.

[0030] Preferably, the locking assembly comprises:

[0031] A magnetic rotating block is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the culture basin;

[0032] A clearance groove is formed through the side wall of the movable plate and is aligned and matched with the magnetic rotating block;

[0033] Two electromagnets are fixed on the side walls of the moving plate, and the two electromagnets push the magnetic rotating block to rotate through magnetic force after being energized;

[0034] When the cultivation basin and the moving plate need to be locked, the electromagnet corresponding to the magnetic rotating block on the cultivation basin is controlled to be energized. After the electromagnet is energized, electromagnetic properties are generated, and the magnetic rotating block is driven to rotate by a magnetic driving force. After the magnetic rotating block rotates, it deviates from the initial position, so that the magnetic rotating block deviates from the clearance groove. At this time, the magnetic rotating block cannot pass through the clearance groove and detach from the moving plate, thereby forming a lock between the moving plate and the cultivation basin, so that the cultivation basin is driven to move synchronously when the moving plate moves;

[0035] After the electromagnet is powered off, it loses its electromagnetic property. At this time, under the action of the gravity of the magnetic rotating block itself, the magnetic rotating block rotates and resets. The reset magnetic rotating block aligns with the give way groove, so that the magnetic rotating block can pass through the give way groove, so that the movable plate is separated from the cultivation basin.

[0036] Preferably, it also includes:

[0037] A plurality of first sliding blocks are arranged corresponding to the culture basins one by one and are respectively fixed on the side walls of the corresponding culture basins;

[0038] A plurality of slide grooves are arranged corresponding to the first sliding blocks one by one, and are all opened on the side wall of the cultivation frame, and the first sliding blocks are adapted to the slide grooves;

[0039] When placing the cultivation basin, the first slider on the cultivation basin is inserted into the interior of the slide groove, thereby limiting the position of the cultivation basin so that the position of the cultivation basin is aligned with the position of the slide groove, which helps to avoid the position of the cultivation basin from being offset, making it difficult to lock the cultivation basin through the locking assembly, thereby helping to maintain the accuracy of locking the cultivation basin.

[0040] Preferably, it also includes:

[0041] A plurality of porous plates are arranged corresponding to the shelves one by one and are respectively embedded in the corresponding shelves;

[0042] The setting of the porous plate ensures that after the cultivation pot returns to its initial position, if there is overwatering, the water can overflow along the bottom of the cultivation pot and then fall along the porous plate, thereby preventing the cultivation pot from being in a state of waterlogging for a long time and affecting seed growth.

[0043] Preferably, it also includes:

[0044] A water receiving box is fixed at the bottom of the shelf;

[0045] A drain hole is fixedly installed at the bottom of the shelf, and a solenoid valve is installed inside the drain hole;

[0046] A bottom box, fixed to the bottom of the cultivation rack;

[0047] A connecting pipe is fixed to the top of the bottom box and is connected to each of the water receiving boxes through the opening;

[0048] The water receiving box can hold the water flowing down from the porous plate, and after the internal watering of the water and fertilizer space is completed, the excess water can flow out to the water receiving box through the drain hole of the open solenoid valve, and then the water in the water receiving box can pass through the opening and flow along the connecting pipe to the bottom box, which is helpful to avoid the occurrence of water overflow.

[0049] Preferably, the growth identification component comprises:

[0050] A second sliding block is slidably mounted on the top of the moving plate;

[0051] A visual sensor is fixed on the top of the second sliding block;

[0052] A first screw rod is rotatably mounted between two ends of the movable plate, and the second slider is threadedly connected to the first screw rod;

[0053] A first motor is fixed to one end of the movable plate and drives the first screw rod to rotate through an output shaft;

[0054] After the first motor is started, the output shaft drives the first screw rod connected to it to rotate. After the first screw rod rotates, it drives the second slider threadedly connected to it to move. The second slider drives the visual sensor to move, so that the visual sensor monitors the growth of seeds inside the cultivation pot. The visual sensor is a mature existing technology and will not be described here.

[0055] In a second aspect, a method for breeding muskmelon seeds is provided, the breeding method comprising the following steps:

[0056] Step 1: Sowing: Sow melon seeds in the cultivation pots, 2-3 seeds in each cultivation pot, and then cover with soil;

[0057] Step 2: Watering: After watering all the cultivation pots thoroughly, place the cultivation pots neatly on the shelf;

[0058] Step 3: Growth monitoring: The growth recognition component regularly monitors the growth of seeds in each cultivation pot;

[0059] Step 4: Apply water and fertilizer in batches: Mark the cultivation pots with different growth potentials of seeds inside according to the monitoring results, and use the water adding component to pull out the cultivation pots with the same growth potential of seeds inside and add water and fertilizer for the corresponding growth potential.

[0060] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0061] The present invention, through the provision of the water adding component, is conducive to avoiding the situation where when the seedlings in the cultivation pot need topdressing, the seeds in some cultivation pots do not grow enough, causing the seeds in the cultivation pots that do not grow enough to be topdressed synchronously and cause root burn.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0072] The following description is used to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art may think of other obvious variations.

[0073] like Figures 1 to 8 The melon seed cultivation device shown includes a cultivation frame 1 and further includes:

[0074] A plurality of shelves 2 are fixed on the side walls of the cultivation rack 1 in a linear array;

[0075] Multiple groups of culture pots 3, a number of culture pots 3 form a group, and the culture pots 3 of the same group are placed on the same shelf 2 in a linear array;

[0076] A plurality of growth identification components are arranged one by one in correspondence with the shelves 2 and are respectively installed on the corresponding shelves 2 to detect the germination conditions inside the cultivation pots 3 placed on the shelves 2;

[0077] A plurality of water adding components are arranged one by one corresponding to the shelves 2 and are respectively installed on the corresponding shelves 2, so as to pull out the cultivated seedlings with different growth conditions in groups and add corresponding water and fertilizer separately;

[0078] When melon seeds are cultivated through seedling transplanting, the germination time of seeds in different cultivation pots is different, and the growth speed after germination is also different, which leads to different growth speeds of melon seeds in different cultivation pots. For melon seeds with different growth speeds, the water consumption in the soil inside the cultivation pots is different, and for melon seedlings with different growth speeds, the demand for fertilizers is also different, so different water and fertilizers need to be applied to the seedlings in different cultivation pots.

[0079] This embodiment of the present invention can solve the above problems. The specific implementation method is as follows: the staff sows melon seeds inside the cultivation pots 3, sowing 2-3 seeds inside each cultivation pot 3, then watering all the cultivation pots 3 thoroughly, and neatly placing the watered cultivation pots 3 on the shelf 2. After a period of time, the melon seeds inside the cultivation pots 3 begin to germinate, and at this time, the growth identification component is started, and a growth identification component regularly monitors the growth of the seeds inside the cultivation pots 3 on the same shelf 2 after germination;

[0080] For melon seeds that germinate faster, the first topdressing can be carried out when the seedlings grow 1-2 true leaves. At this time, the growth identification component identifies the seedlings that have grown 1-2 true leaves, and marks the corresponding cultivation pots 3, so that after the water adding component is started, the marked cultivation pots 3 are driven to move and pull out synchronously, so that the cultivation pots 3 with seedlings that have grown 1-2 true leaves inside can be pulled out separately, and then the water adding component adds water and fertilizers to them separately, which is conducive to avoiding the situation that when the seedlings inside the cultivation pots 3 need topdressing, the seeds inside the cultivation pots 3 are not growing enough, causing the seeds that do not grow enough inside the cultivation pots 3 to be topdressed synchronously and cause root burn, which is conducive to avoiding the situation that the slow-growing seeds die due to overfertilization;

[0081] For melon seeds that germinate slowly, if the seeds are watered in large quantities when the seeds have not germinated or when the germination growth is slow, it is easy to cause the seeds to accumulate water and die. At this time, when watering the cultivation pots 3 uniformly, it is necessary to pull out the cultivation pots 3 with seeds growing well and needing watering for uniform watering. This is beneficial to avoid watering the seeds that grow slowly during the uniform watering, which may cause the seeds to die, thereby helping to improve the survival rate of the seeds.

[0082] As an optional embodiment, the water adding component includes:

[0083] The movable plate 4 is slidably mounted inside the shelf 2, with both ends passing through the clearance grooves 402 at both ends of the shelf 2;

[0084] The sealing edge 202 is fixed to the edge of the shelf 2, and the bottom of the movable plate 4 is adapted to the sealing edge 202;

[0085] Two cylinders 401 are symmetrically fixed at the two ends of the shelf 2, and together drive the moving plate 4 to move through the telescopic rod;

[0086] A plurality of locking components are arranged one by one corresponding to the culture pots 3 on the shelf 2, and are respectively installed between the movable plate 4 and the corresponding culture pots 3, and are used to lock the movable plate 4 and the culture pots 3;

[0087] An isolation component is installed above the shelf 2, and is used to isolate the removed cultivation pot 3 from the remaining cultivation pots 3 to form a water and fertilizer space after the movable plate 4 drives the cultivation pot 3 to move;

[0088] A water inlet pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the movable plate 4. When it is necessary to water the seeds in the cultivation pot 3, after the growth identification component identifies the cultivation pot 3 corresponding to the seeds that need to be watered and fertilized, the locking component is activated to lock the cultivation pot 3 and the movable plate 4. Then, after the cylinder 401 is started, the movable plate 4 is driven to move through the telescopic rod, and the movable plate 4 drives the cultivation pot 3 to move. After the movable plate 4 moves, it abuts against the edge of the sealing edge 202, thereby forming a seal with the sealing edge 202. Then, the isolation component is started, and the isolation component isolates the inside of the shelf 2, so that a water and fertilizer space is formed between the isolation component and the movable plate 4. At this time, the cultivation pot 3 moved with the moving plate 4 is located inside the water and fertilizer space, and then water and fertilizer are transported to the inside of the water and fertilizer space through the water inlet pipe 9, so that the water and fertilizer are accumulated inside the water and fertilizer space, and the water and fertilizer are immersed in the bottom of the cultivation pot 3, so that the cultivation pot 3 absorbs the water and fertilizer from the bottom upward, which is beneficial to avoid the situation where direct watering causes excessive watering and water accumulation in the cultivation pot 3, so that the cultivation pot 3 that needs watering can be watered appropriately, and the cultivation pot 3 that does not need watering is outside the water and fertilizer space, which is beneficial to avoid the situation where seeds with poor growth grow too long or even die due to excessive water and fertilizer.

[0089] As an optional embodiment, the isolation component includes:

[0090] The horizontal plate 601 is fixed on the side wall of the culture rack 1 and is located above the shelf 2;

[0091] Two second screw rods 605 are symmetrically rotatably installed between the horizontal plate 601 and the shelf 2;

[0092] Two second motors 603 are symmetrically fixed above the horizontal plate 601, and respectively drive the two second screw rods 605 to rotate through the output shafts;

[0093] Two threaded sleeves 602 are respectively threadedly sleeved on the outer rings of the two second screw rods 605;

[0094] The isolation plate 6 is fixed between the two threaded sleeves 602, and the isolation plate 6 is moved downward to isolate the interior of the shelf 2;

[0095] After the second motor 603 is started, it drives the second screw rod 605 connected to it to rotate through the output shaft. After the second screw rod 605 rotates, it drives the threaded sleeve 602 threadedly connected to it to move vertically. The threaded sleeve 602 drives the isolation plate 6 to move vertically. After the isolation plate 6 moves downward, it is isolated inside the shelf 2, thereby isolating the inside of the shelf 2, so that the position inside the shelf 2 that needs water is isolated from the position that does not need water, which helps to avoid water accumulation in the position that does not need water, causing excessive watering of the seeds in the cultivation pot 3.

[0096] As an optional embodiment, the isolation component further includes:

[0097] The rubber strip 604 is fixed to the edge of the isolation plate 6, and when the isolation plate 6 contacts the shelf 2, the rubber strip 604 is squeezed to form a seal;

[0098] When the isolation plate 6 moves downward, the rubber strip 604 is squeezed, so that the rubber strip 604 blocks the gap between the isolation plate 6 and the shelf 2 through its own deformation, thereby facilitating full isolation of the two areas formed by isolation and preventing water and fertilizer from seeping out.

[0099] As an optional embodiment, the locking assembly includes:

[0100] The magnetic rotating block 403 is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the cultivation basin 3;

[0101] The clearance groove 402 is formed through the side wall of the movable plate 4 and is aligned and matched with the magnetic rotating block 403;

[0102] Two electromagnets 404 are fixed on the side wall of the moving plate 4. When the two electromagnets 404 are energized, they push the magnetic rotating block 403 to rotate through magnetic force.

[0103] When the cultivation basin 3 and the movable plate 4 need to be locked, the electromagnet 404 corresponding to the magnetic rotating block 403 on the cultivation basin 3 is controlled to be energized. After being energized, the electromagnet 404 generates electromagnetic properties, and the magnetic rotating block 403 is driven to rotate by a magnetic driving force. After the magnetic rotating block 403 rotates, it deviates from the initial position, so that the magnetic rotating block 403 deviates from the clearance groove 402. At this time, the magnetic rotating block 403 cannot pass through the clearance groove 402 and detach from the movable plate 4, thereby forming a lock between the movable plate 4 and the cultivation basin 3, so that the cultivation basin 3 is driven to move synchronously when the movable plate 4 moves;

[0104] After the electromagnet 404 is powered off, it loses its electromagnetic property. At this time, under the action of the gravity of the magnetic rotating block 403 itself, the magnetic rotating block 403 rotates and resets. The reset magnetic rotating block 403 aligns with the make way slot 402, so that the magnetic rotating block 403 can pass through the make way slot 402, so that the movable plate 4 and the cultivation basin 3 are separated.

[0105] As an optional embodiment, it also includes:

[0106] A plurality of first sliding blocks 301 are arranged one by one corresponding to the culture basins 3 and are respectively fixed on the side walls of the corresponding culture basins 3;

[0107] A plurality of slide grooves 302 are arranged corresponding to the first sliders 301 one by one, and are all opened on the side wall of the cultivation frame 1, and the first sliders 301 are adapted to the slide grooves 302;

[0108] When placing the cultivation basin 3, the first slider 301 on the cultivation basin 3 is inserted into the interior of the slide groove 302, thereby limiting the position of the cultivation basin 3, so that the position of the cultivation basin 3 is aligned with the position of the slide groove 302, which helps to avoid the position of the cultivation basin 3 from being offset, making it difficult to lock the cultivation basin 3 by the locking assembly, thereby helping to maintain the accuracy of the cultivation basin 3 when being locked.

[0109] As an optional embodiment, it also includes:

[0110] A plurality of porous plates 201 are arranged one by one corresponding to the shelves 2, and are respectively embedded in the corresponding shelves 2;

[0111] The setting of the porous plate 201 ensures that after the cultivation pot 3 returns to the initial position, if there is overwatering, the water can overflow along the bottom of the cultivation pot 3 and then fall along the porous plate 201, thereby preventing the cultivation pot 3 from being in a state of water accumulation for a long time and affecting seed growth.

[0112] As an optional embodiment, it also includes:

[0113] A water receiving box 7 is fixed to the bottom of the shelf 2;

[0114] A drain hole is fixedly installed at the bottom of the shelf 2, and a solenoid valve 701 is installed inside the drain hole;

[0115] The bottom box 802 is fixed to the bottom of the cultivation rack 1;

[0116] The connecting pipe 8 is fixed to the top of the bottom box 802 and is connected to each water receiving box 7 through the opening 801;

[0117] The water receiving box 7 can hold the water flow falling from the porous plate 201, and after the internal watering of the water and fertilizer space is completed, the excess water flow can flow out to the water receiving box 7 by opening the drain hole of the solenoid valve 701, and then the water flow of the water receiving box 7 can pass through the opening 801 and flow along the connecting pipe 8 to the bottom box 802, which is helpful to avoid the occurrence of water overflow.

[0118] As an optional embodiment, the growth identification component includes:

[0119] The second slider 501 is slidably mounted on the top of the moving plate 4;

[0120] The visual sensor 5 is fixed on the top of the second sliding block 501;

[0121] The first screw rod 503 is rotatably mounted between the two ends of the moving plate 4, and the second slider 501 is threadedly connected to the first screw rod 503;

[0122] The first motor 502 is fixed to one end of the moving plate 4 and drives the first screw rod 503 to rotate through the output shaft;

[0123] After the first motor 502 is started, it drives the first screw rod 503 connected to it to rotate through the output shaft. After the first screw rod 503 rotates, it drives the second slider 501 threadedly connected to it to move. The second slider 501 drives the visual sensor 5 to move, so that the visual sensor 5 monitors the growth of seeds inside the cultivation pot 3. The visual sensor 5 is a mature existing technology and will not be described here.

[0124] like Fig. 9 A melon seed breeding method is shown, the breeding method comprising the following steps:

[0125] Step 1, sowing: sow melon seeds in the cultivation pots 3, sow 2-3 seeds in each cultivation pot 3, and then cover with soil;

[0126] Step 2: Watering: After the inside of all the cultivation pots 3 are watered thoroughly, the cultivation pots 3 are neatly placed on the shelf 2;

[0127] Step 3: Growth monitoring: The growth recognition component regularly monitors the growth of seeds in each cultivation pot 3;

[0128] Step 4: Apply water and fertilizer in batches: Mark the cultivation pots 3 with seeds of different growth potentials according to the monitoring results, and pull out the cultivation pots 3 with seeds of the same growth potentials through the water adding component to add water and fertilizer corresponding to the growth potentials.

[0129] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the staff sows melon seeds in the inside of the cultivation pots 3, 2-3 seeds are sown in each cultivation pot 3, then all the cultivation pots 3 are watered thoroughly, and the watered cultivation pots 3 are neatly placed on the shelf 2. After a period of time, the melon seeds in the cultivation pots 3 begin to germinate, and at this time, the growth identification component is started, and a growth identification component regularly monitors the growth of the seeds in the cultivation pots 3 on the same shelf 2 after germination;

[0130] For melon seeds that germinate faster, the first topdressing can be carried out when the seedlings grow 1-2 true leaves. At this time, the growth identification component identifies the seedlings that have grown 1-2 true leaves, and marks the corresponding cultivation pots 3, so that after the water adding component is started, the marked cultivation pots 3 are driven to move and pull out synchronously, so that the cultivation pots 3 with seedlings that have grown 1-2 true leaves inside can be pulled out separately, and then the water adding component adds water and fertilizers to them separately, which is conducive to avoiding the situation that when the seedlings inside the cultivation pots 3 need topdressing, the seeds inside the cultivation pots 3 are not growing enough, causing the seeds that do not grow enough inside the cultivation pots 3 to be topdressed synchronously and cause root burn, which is conducive to avoiding the situation that the slow-growing seeds die due to overfertilization;

[0131] For melon seeds that germinate slowly, if the seeds are watered in large quantities when the seeds have not germinated or when the germination growth is slow, it is easy to cause the seeds to accumulate water and die. At this time, when watering the cultivation pots 3 uniformly, it is necessary to pull out the cultivation pots 3 with seeds growing well and needing watering for uniform watering. This is beneficial to avoid watering the seeds that grow slowly during the uniform watering, which may cause the seeds to die, thereby helping to improve the survival rate of the seeds.

[0132] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions only describe the principles of the present invention. The present invention may be subject to various changes and improvements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention claimed.
