Each water tank 3 is connected to the water supply pipe through a water pipe. An electric heater is provided at the bottom of each water tank 3. The electric heater is used to heat the water in the water tank 3. A temperature sensor is provided in the water tank 3 for real-time monitoring of the temperature of the water in the water tank 3. An insulation shell 4 is provided at the bottom of the box body 2. The insulation shell 4 is a shell structure with an open upper end. An insulation board is provided on the outer wall of the insulation shell 4. The upper end of the insulation shell 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate of the box body 2. Eight heat exchange tubes 5 are provided in the insulation shell 4. Each heat exchange tube 5 They are all installed in an inverted U shape at the bottom of the box body 2, and the two ends of each heat exchange tube 5 are respectively connected to the bottom of the two water tanks 3, so that the water in the two water tanks 3 can circulate with each other through the eight heat exchange tubes 5. The temperature of the two water tanks 3 can be quickly adjusted to the germination temperature required for the vegetable seeds, which is convenient for accurate temperature adjustment and can prevent the temperature from being too high and difficult to lower.

When the temperature sensor 28 detects that the temperature in the box 2 is lower than the set temperature, the temperature signal is quickly fed back to the controller 29. The controller 29 controls the electric heating to heat the water in the water tank 3. When the water temperature rises to the set temperature, the electric heating stops working. The controller 29 controls the circulation fan 6 to work, and the hot air in the insulation shell 4 is sent into the box 2 from the top to perform temperature compensation on the vegetable seeds in the box 2. When it is necessary to supply atomized gas to the box 2, the ultrasonic atomizer is turned on by the controller 29 to generate atomized gas in the atomizing box 7, and then the solenoid valve 75 and the circulation fan 6 are opened by the controller 29 to draw the gas in the atomizing box 7 into the first gas delivery pipe 61 through the second gas delivery pipe 74. After mixing with the constant temperature gas delivered in the first gas delivery pipe 61, it is delivered to the top of the box 2, and the seeds in the various seed cultivation trays 23 are atomized from top to bottom.
