METHOD OF CREATION OF MICROCLIMATE UNDER PLASTIC COVER FOR ROOTING OF CUTTINGS

摘要

FIELD: agriculture.;SUBSTANCE: method of creation of microclimate under plastic cover for rooting of cuttings relates to the field of agriculture and may find application in propagation of plants by grafting and in growing plants under cover. Air heating under the cover is carried out due to the heat removal from the upper part of the cover by spraying water collected in the container in the form of atmospheric precipitations from the outer surface of the cover and in the upper inner part of the plastic cover. At that the positive temperature gradient between the basal and apical parts of the cuttings is achieved, which has a beneficial effect on rooting.;EFFECT: method of creation of microclimate enables to reduce costs for rooting of cuttings by reusing precipitations while simultaneous increasing yield of the product per unit of the area.;1 ex
