Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of agricultural planting technology, specifically to a planting method for figs using fog cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional fig cultivation methods typically rely on soil cultivation, which suffers from problems such as insufficient and wasted water resources, soil pollution, and continuous cropping obstacles caused by pests and diseases. Foliar cultivation, as a soilless cultivation technique, can effectively utilize water resources, reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases, improve plant growth efficiency, increase yield, and enhance quality. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for planting figs using fog cultivation, in order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0004] The technical solution of this invention is a method for planting figs using aerosol cultivation, which includes the following steps: equipment installation and debugging, nutrient solution preparation, planting preparation, seedling transplantation, growth management, and harvesting.

[0005] (1) Equipment installation and commissioning, including equipment assembly and parameter debugging; (2) Prepare nutrient solution; (3) Planting preparation; (4) Seedling transplantation; (5) Growth management; (6) Harvesting. Beneficial effects

[0006] Growing figs using aeroponics has several significant advantages over traditional soil cultivation: (1) Water conservation: The aeroponic cultivation system sprays nutrient solution directly onto the plant roots through a spraying method, which greatly reduces the waste of water resources; especially in mountainous areas with high temperature, drought and water shortage, the water saving rate can reach more than 30%. Compared with traditional irrigation methods, the water use efficiency is significantly improved.

[0007] (2) Precise nutrition provision: The fog cultivation system can precisely control the formula and supply of nutrient solution according to the needs of different growth stages of figs, thereby ensuring that the plants can obtain the best nutrition supply at each growth stage.

[0008] (3) Reduce pests and diseases: Since fog cultivation does not directly contact the soil, common pathogens and pests in the soil cannot survive, reducing the probability of pests and diseases, thereby reducing the use of pesticides and ensuring the green and environmentally friendly nature of the fruit.

[0009] (4) Faster growth rate: Fog cultivation provides a more ideal growth environment, including suitable humidity, temperature and nutrient supply, which makes the growth rate of figs significantly faster and shortens the growth cycle.

[0010] (5) High space utilization: Fog cultivation equipment can be placed in wasteland, sandy beaches and other locations where soil planting is not possible, making full use of the vertical space to increase the yield per unit area. It is especially suitable for urban agriculture and indoor planting. Detailed Implementation

[0011] The preferred embodiments of the invention are described in detail below so that the advantages and features of the invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby providing a clearer and more explicit definition of the scope of protection of the invention.

[0012] A method for cultivating figs using aeroponics includes the following steps: 1. Equipment installation and commissioning: ① Cultivation container: An enclosed space to accommodate plant roots, equipped with multiple spray devices; ② Spray system: Includes spray devices, water supply pipes, and a nutrient solution reservoir, capable of intelligently atomizing and spraying complete nutrient solution onto the plant roots using leaf sensors; ③ Control system: The intelligent leaf system consists of sensors, controllers, and actuators, used to monitor and adjust environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, and nutrient solution concentration; ④ After installing the cultivation container, spray system, and control system, debug them to their optimal state.

[0013] 2. Prepare the nutrient solution: (1) Basic formula for daily nutrient solution for fig aeroponic cultivation: Add 330g calcium nitrate, 420g potassium nitrate, 60g ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, 100g magnesium sulfate, 3g boric acid, 4g manganese sulfate, 0.3g zinc sulfate, 0.5g copper sulfate, 0.05g ammonium molybdate, and 25g chelated iron to each ton of water and mix well. Adjust the pH of the nutrient solution to about 5.5-6.5. The EC value is 1.2-1.6 ms / cm during the seedling stage and 2.0-2.5 ms / cm during the vegetative growth stage.

[0014] (2) Preparation steps: Test the element content of the water resources and use clean water that has undergone precipitation and permeation treatment to ensure that the water quality is free of impurities that may affect the quality of the nutrient solution. Weigh the raw materials of macro-elements and micro-elements separately, using an electronic scale to ensure accuracy. Prioritize dissolving macro-elements, which are usually in the form of calcium nitrate, potassium sulfate, monoammonium phosphate, and magnesium sulfate, etc., and add the next one after each dissolution. Ensure that all nutrients are completely dissolved, as undissolved particles may clog the nozzles of the aeroponic system. Micro-elements need to be handled with care and are usually prepared as a micro-element stock solution and then diluted 10 times according to the ratio. After the nutrient solution is prepared, check the pH value of the nutrient solution. The ideal range should be 5.5-6.5. If necessary, a pH adjuster can be used for adjustment. Finally, check the conductivity (EC value) of the nutrient solution to ensure that the concentration of nutrients is suitable for the absorption of figs. Under normal circumstances, the EC value of fig aeroponics ranges from 1.2 to 2.5 ms / cm, with a lower value during the seedling stage and a higher value during the fruiting stage.

[0015] 3. Planting preparation: Select a suitable fig variety, Pig Heart Fig, and prepare two-year-old seedlings using aseptic rapid propagation technology.

[0016] 4. Seedling transplantation: Fix the fig seedlings onto the support device inside the cultivation container.

[0017] 5. Growth Management: Regularly change the nutrient solution to prevent salt accumulation and nutrient imbalance. The temperature of the nutrient solution needs to be controlled within the suitable temperature range for fig growth. Regularly monitor environmental parameters and adjust the spraying frequency through the control system to promote healthy fig growth. Intelligently monitor changes in the nutrient solution composition and adjust and replenish it in a timely manner.

[0018] 6. Harvesting: Fog-cultivated figs grow rapidly, and the flowering time on the same canopy and branches is not the same. They are harvested in batches according to their color and texture as they gradually ripen.

[0019] This invention optimizes fog cultivation technology, which can accelerate the growth rate of figs, expand their growing space, increase yield, reduce water consumption, lower the incidence of pests and diseases, and improve fruit quality. It achieves efficient resource utilization and environmental protection, providing a high-efficiency, intelligent, and environmentally friendly planting solution for modern agriculture.

[0020] This invention can also be extended in the following ways: (1) Intelligent control system: The Internet of Things technology is introduced to monitor environmental parameters (such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, nutrient solution concentration, etc.) in real time through sensors, and the spraying frequency and light intensity are automatically adjusted through the intelligent control system to achieve refined management.

[0021] (2) Movable cultivation containers: The design allows for easy repositioning at different growth stages, optimizing light and space utilization. This design also facilitates indoor-outdoor conversion under different climatic conditions.

[0022] (3) Environmentally friendly materials and low cost: The equipment is made of biodegradable or recyclable environmentally friendly materials, reducing the impact on the environment. At the same time, the nutrient solution formula also uses organic ingredients to ensure the green and safe fruit.

[0023] (4) Easy to operate: It integrates multiple functions such as aeroponic cultivation, light regulation, temperature and humidity control and pest and disease monitoring, realizing one-stop management. Users can remotely monitor and operate the equipment through mobile phone application or computer.

[0024] (5) Growth data recording and analysis: The system has data recording and analysis functions, which can record various data in the growth process of figs, and provide optimized planting solutions through big data analysis to improve planting efficiency and fruit quality.
