Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cutting propagation technology, and in particular to a propagation device for clematis cuttings. Background Technology
[0002] Cutting propagation is a commonly used asexual reproduction technique for the rapid propagation of new plantlets. This method utilizes a part of the plant (such as a stem, leaf, or root) to develop into a complete, independent plantlet under suitable environmental conditions through its regenerative capacity. Clematis cutting propagation is a method of propagating new plants by utilizing the regenerative capacity of clematis plant tissues.
[0003] Clematis propagation by cuttings requires specialized propagation trays. However, existing trays typically consist of a base and seedling cups, lacking a separate soaking tank within the base. Therefore, the necessary reagents must be prepared using separate tools, resulting in numerous tools and complex procedures. Regular watering is required in the early stages of propagation to maintain seedling moisture, further complicating management and increasing workload. Furthermore, the seedling cups in existing trays are generally individually designed, leading to poor stability within the base and a tendency to tip over during tray transport. Utility Model Content

The top surface of the seedling tray 12 also has multiple evenly distributed soaking tanks 1 for soaking clematis. Before planting the clematis, a solution is placed in the soaking tank 1 to soak the clematis. After soaking, the clematis is planted into the seedling cups. No additional soaking tools are needed, simplifying the structure and operation. The seedling troughs 4 and soaking tanks 1 are arranged one-to-one for easy soaking and planting of clematis. Each seedling trough 4 has a first through hole 2 at its bottom, communicating with the water storage chamber 14, to provide water to the clematis and keep it moist. Each soaking tank 1 has a second through hole 3 at its bottom, communicating with the water storage chamber 14, to facilitate the entry and exit of the solution. Seedling cups are arranged one-to-one with the seedling troughs 4, and each seedling cup is movably installed in its corresponding seedling trough 4, facilitating the placement and removal of the seedling cups, limiting their position, improving the stability of the installation, and preventing them from tipping over during transport. Each seedling cup has a third through hole at its bottom, communicating with the first through hole 2, allowing water from the water storage chamber 14 to enter the seedling cup through both the first and third through holes, enabling the clematis to absorb water from the water storage chamber 14, keeping it moist, reducing the need for frequent watering, simplifying management, and reducing workload. A switch mechanism is installed on the bottom surface of the seedling tray 12 to open and close the first through hole 2 and the second through hole 3. In use, close all the first through holes 2 and open all the second through holes 3 using the switching mechanism. First, introduce the soaking solution into the water storage chamber 14. The solution flows into each soaking tank 1 through the second through holes 3. Place the clematis in the soaking tank 1 for soaking and then plant it in the corresponding seedling cup. After soaking, open the outlet valve 13 to drain the solution from the soaking tank 1 and the water storage chamber 14. Then close the valve, close all the second through holes 3 using the switching mechanism, and open all the first through holes 2 to introduce tap water into the water storage chamber 14. The operation is simple and convenient.
