CULTIVATION MEDIUM OF HYDROPONIC SEEDLING

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cultivation medium allowing efficient raising of hydroponic seedlings and obtaining the excellent growth of seedlings even if the medium is washed out of plant roots to transplant the seedlings into a seedling raising pot, and to provide a method for raising the hydroponic seedlings, and the hydroponic seedlings.;SOLUTION: A cultivation medium of hydroponic seedlings is obtained by adding water to an inorganic plant raising carrier excluding soil, and to a water-swelling pellet-like plant raising medium containing a water-absorbing resin. A method for raising seedlings using this cultivation medium, and the hydroponic seedlings are also provided. As for the water-absorbing resin, electric conductivity of hydrous gel when 1 pt.wt. of water-absorbing resin absorbs 100 pts.wt. of 25°C ion exchange water is 0-3.0 mS/cm, and the water absorption magnification of the 25°C ion exchange water of the water-absorbing resin is 80-1,000.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT
