Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of agricultural facilities, and particularly relates to a watermelon planting frame. Background Art

[0002] Three-dimensional watermelon cultivation is a cultivation method that allows watermelon vines to grow in a three-dimensional space by means of trellising. This cultivation mode makes full use of space, improves land utilization, and increases yield per unit area. It is also conducive to ventilation and light transmission, and reduces the occurrence of pests and diseases. A more common trellising method is to build an arch frame above the watermelon seedlings. As the watermelon seedlings grow, their vines climb along the arch frame, bloom and bear fruit, and the watermelons are hung on the arch frame. As the watermelons mature, there is a risk of watermelons falling and being damaged. The existing measures are to build separate frames on both sides of the arch frame, place trays on the frames, and use the trays to support the watermelons. The advantage is that the risk of watermelons falling can be reduced, which is convenient for watermelon harvesting. The disadvantage is that there are requirements for the flowering and fruiting positions of the watermelons, and the position of the trays cannot be adjusted. Utility Model Content
