[0031] Existing flowerpots are too simple in design and difficult to use scientifically and rationally in the experimental research on the effect of phosphate fertilizer. Their disadvantages include: (1) If non-transparent flowerpots are purchased, the growth and development of the root system cannot be observed directly. If transparent flowerpots are purchased, algae will grow around the flowerpots, interfering with the experimental analysis; (2) The trays that come with these flowerpots are shallow and cannot effectively collect and recycle water and fertilizer, affecting the accuracy of the experiment.
[0032] In response to the above problems, such as Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a planting device 100, which is mainly used to accurately measure the fertilizer effect of fertilizers, such as the fertilizer effect of recycled phosphate fertilizer.
[0033] In some embodiments, the planting device 100 includes a cultivation container 110, a light-shielding element 120, and a recycling element 130.
[0034] The cultivation container 110 includes a bottom wall 111 and a side wall 112, which are connected to form a cultivation space 113.
[0035] Cultivation space 113 is used for adding growth substrate, into which fertilizers whose effectiveness to be tested can be added. The growth substrate includes, but is not limited to, soil and quartz sand, and can be varied according to the type of plant being cultivated.
[0036] The sidewall 112 has an observation window, which allows for direct observation of the plant root development and the applied phosphate fertilizer sample.
[0037] Multiple ventilation holes 1111 are provided through the bottom wall 111 for ventilation and to prevent water from accumulating in the cultivation container 110, so that the plant can grow and develop normally in the cultivation container 110.
[0038] The light-blocking component 120 includes a movable light-blocking curtain 121, which is movably connected to the side wall 112 to cover or open the observation window. Thus, when direct observation of root growth and development is needed, the movable light-blocking curtain 121 is opened; when direct observation is not needed, the movable light-blocking curtain 121 is closed, reducing the problem of algae growth in the growth substrate of the cultivation container 110 due to light exposure, and making the experimental results more accurate.
[0039] The existing flower pots lack a light-blocking cover on top, allowing light to enter the cultivation space from the top of the pot. This makes it easy for algae and other microorganisms to grow on the surface of the growing substrate, affecting the plant's absorption of water and fertilizer and impacting the accuracy of the experiment.
[0040] To address the above problems, in some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the light-shielding component 120 also includes a light-shielding cover 122, which is located at the end of the side wall 112 away from the bottom wall 111 to block the light that enters the cultivation space 113 through the top of the cultivation container 110.
[0041] The light-blocking cover 122 is used to reduce light entering the cultivation space 113 from the top of the cultivation container 110. The light-blocking cover 122 is annular with a through hole in the middle for the plants to pass through.
[0042] To facilitate the assembly of the light-shielding cover 122 onto the cultivation container 110, the light-shielding cover 122 is divided into two parts. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, by assembling from left to right, the plant can be positioned in the center of the annular shading cover 122 without needing to be moved, thus improving assembly efficiency. Figure 1 As shown, the recovery component 130 is connected to the bottom wall 111 below, and the recovery component 130 forms a receiving space 1311. The vent 1111 is connected to the receiving space 1311. In this way, the growth substrate and fertilizer that leak out of the cultivation container 110 through the vent 1111 are collected in the recovery component 130, which facilitates the collection and recording of phosphorus loss analysis data of phosphate fertilizer samples. The growth substrate and fertilizer in the recovery component 130 are then put back into the cultivation container 110 to improve the accuracy of phosphate fertilizer utilization rate measurement.
[0043] In some embodiments, the cultivation container 110 is made of a non-transparent material. This necessitates processing a window in the side wall 112 to observe root growth and development. Typically, such a window is small, giving the cultivation container 110 good light-blocking capabilities and reducing the problem of algae growth in the growth substrate due to light exposure. However, because the window area is also small, it is not possible to quickly, intuitively, and accurately observe root growth and development.
[0044] To address the aforementioned issues, in some embodiments, the sidewall 112 is made of a transparent material, and the sidewall 112 forms an observation window.
[0045] For example, the sidewall 112 is made of any one of the following materials: plexiglass, glass, polycarbonate, polystyrene, and polyethylene terephthalate, which have good light transmittance and are low in cost.
[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, the sidewall 112 is a hollow cylinder with a rectangular longitudinal section. In some embodiments, the longitudinal section of the sidewall 112 may also be trapezoidal, arc-shaped, etc.
[0047] In some embodiments, there are multiple movable light-blocking curtains 121, and at least one movable light-blocking curtain 121 can extend and retract circumferentially along the side wall 112. It is mainly used to block light from entering the cultivation space 113 from the transparent side wall 112, thereby reducing the growth of algae in the growth substrate of the cultivation container 110 due to light exposure.
[0048] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are two movable light-blocking curtains 121, which are arranged around the perimeter of the side wall 112.
[0049] In one embodiment, the movable blackout curtain 121 adopts a corrugated paper structure with corrugated folds, enabling the movable blackout curtain 121 to extend and retract circumferentially along the side wall 112.
[0050] In one embodiment, one movable light-blocking curtain 121 is fixed, while the other movable light-blocking curtain 121 adopts a pull-out structure. When the light-blocking component 120 needs to be opened, the other movable light-blocking curtain 121 is moved so that the two movable light-blocking curtains 121 overlap, and part of the surface of the side wall 112 is exposed to form an observation window. When the light-blocking component 120 is closed, the other movable light-blocking curtain 121 is moved, the two movable light-blocking curtains 121 separate, and are laid flat along the circumference of the side wall 112, so that the movable light-blocking curtain 121 can be extended and retracted along the circumference of the side wall 112.
[0051] In some embodiments, when the plurality of movable shading curtains 121 are extended to their extreme positions, the plurality of movable shading curtains 121 are connected to form a hollow cylinder and completely cover the surface of the sidewall 112 that is away from the cultivation space 113.
[0052] It should be noted that when the multiple movable light-blocking curtains 121 are extended to their extreme positions, the shape formed by the connection of the multiple movable light-blocking curtains 121 conforms to the shape of the side wall 112. For example, in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the middle, the side wall 112 is in the shape of a hollow cylinder, and the shape formed by connecting multiple movable light-blocking curtains 121 is also in the shape of a hollow cylinder.
[0053] It is understandable that completely covering the surface of the sidewall 112 away from the cultivation space 113 can reduce the growth of algae in the growth substrate of the cultivation container 110 due to light exposure, thereby improving the accuracy of the experiment.
[0054] In some embodiments, the light-shielding cover 122 and the movable light-shielding curtain 121 are detachably connected.
[0055] By setting the light-shielding cover 122 and the movable light-shielding curtain 121 to be detachably connected, it is convenient for the experimenter to add water and fertilizer through the top of the cultivation container 110, or to observe the growth of plant roots through the side wall 112 of the cultivation container 110.
[0056] The ventilation holes at the bottom of common flower pots make it easy for some of the growing substrate and added phosphate fertilizer to move out of the pot, causing phosphorus loss and affecting the accuracy of the experiment.
[0057] To address the above problems, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the planting device 100 also includes at least one retaining element 140, which is located at the bottom of the cultivation space 113 and is used to reduce the loss of growth substrate and fertilizer particles.
[0058] In some embodiments, the trapping element 140 is mesh-like. The mesh size of the trapping element 140 is 300-500 mesh, which facilitates the trapping of slow-release fertilizer particles to ensure the accuracy of the test.
[0059] In some embodiments, the recycling component 130 includes a recycling container 131 and a support member 132. A receiving space 1311 is disposed in the recycling container 131, and the support member 132 is disposed in the receiving space 1311 and connected to the recycling container 131.
[0060] The cultivation container 110 is set on the support 132, so that the bottom of the cultivation container 110 is separated from the bottom of the recycling container 131, which prevents the recycling container 131 from blocking the ventilation hole 1111 at the bottom of the cultivation container 110, and also makes it easy to visually observe the total amount of growth substrate and fertilizer leaking from the ventilation hole 1111.
[0061] In some embodiments, the support member 132 includes a plurality of support plates 1321, which are arranged in pairs and cross each other to prevent the support member 132 from blocking the ventilation holes 1111 at the bottom of the cultivation container 110.
[0062] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the support member 132 includes two support plates 1321. The support plates 1321 are rectangular and the two support plates 1321 intersect perpendicularly to form a cross-shaped structure, which gives the support member 132 good support capacity.
[0063] In some embodiments, the recycling container 131 is a non-transparent structure, which reduces the amount of light entering the cultivation space 113 from the bottom of the cultivation container 110, making it less likely for algae and other microorganisms to grow in the growth substrate, thereby improving the accuracy of the experiment.
