A METHOD FOR THE HYDROPONIC CULTIVATION OF PLANTS AS WELL AS A CROP DEVICE AND A SYSTEM TO PRACTICE SUCH A METHOD.

摘要

IN A METHOD OF SIMULTANEOUS HYDROPONIC GROWTH OF A NUMBER OF PLANTS (18), A DRIP IRRIGATION PIPE (14) THAT HAS OUTLETS (17) DISPOSED ALONG THE LENGTH OF THIS, IS INSERTED BETWEEN A COUPLE OF YUXTAPUESTAS OF FLAT WAY (4, 5) OF WATERPROOF MATERIAL FROM A GROWTH DEVICE (10) ALONG A FIRST CLOSED LONGITUDINAL EDGE (2) EAST. THE GROWTH DEVICE (10) INCLUDING THE FEED PIPE (14) IS SUSPENDED WITH THE ABOVE CLOSED LONGITUDINAL EDGE (2) ALONG A SUSPENSION MEANS (15) LOCATED AT A SISTANTIALLY HORIZONTAL LEVEL. THE ROOTS (19) OF THE PLANTS (18) ARE INSERTED BETWEEN THE SAID TWO LAYERS (4, 5), WATERS BELOW THE SAID OUTLETS (17), AND WITH THE STEMS EXTENDING THROUGH PASSING CUTS (11) OF ONE OF THE ABOVE TWO LAYERS (4,5). THE NUTRIENT SOLUTION IS SUPPLIED BY THE SAID PIPE (14) AND SUPPLY OUTLETS (17) AND IS GUIDED TOWARDS THE ROOTS (19) OF EACH PLANT (18), AND IT IS RAPIDLY PASSED BY THE SAID ROOTS (19) AND IS COLLECTED BY UNDER THE ROOTS (19) FOR THE DISCHARGE RECIRCULATION OF THIS. THE GROWTH DEVICE (10) INCLUDES TWO LAYERS AND ALMOST FLAT (4, 5) OF WATERPROOF MATERIAL, WHICH ARE SEALED BETWEEN ALONG AT LEAST ONE LONGITUDINAL EDGE (20) OF THESE DEVICES, GROWTH (10) ALONG THE ABOVE CLOSED LONGITUDINAL EDGE (2) ON SUSPENSION MEDIA (15) LOCATED AT A SUBSTANTIALLY HORIZONTAL LEVEL
