[0002] Soilless cultivation is a common method of crop cultivation. It involves providing stable root support for plants using cultivation troughs on cultivation racks without the use of natural soil. Specific nutrient solutions are used to meet the various nutrients required for plant growth, while creating suitable environmental conditions to enable plants to grow and develop normally. Soilless cultivation troughs are a commonly used device in soilless cultivation. During the cultivation process, nutrient solutions are generally irrigated into the soilless cultivation troughs.
[0003] When using a soilless cultivation trough, crops grow, and when the crops are removed, there may be residues such as roots, stems, leaves, and flying insects submerged in the nutrient solution remaining in the trough. These residues may contain pests or insect eggs, and if they are not cleaned in time, they will affect the growth of the next season's crops. Generally, manual cleaning is required, which is time-consuming and laborious. Soilless cultivation troughs do not have a design to rinse the residues on the inner wall of the trough, which is a shortcoming.
[0004] Existing soilless cultivation troughs lack a self-cleaning design to rinse away residues on the inner walls. To address this, this application proposes a soilless cultivation trough with self-cleaning capabilities. Utility Model Content
