摘要:
A plant cultivation container for guiding wastewater from the plant cultivation container to a predetermined place and easily maintain an aesthetic appearance thereof includes: a plant cultivation container body having a water reservoir portion formed by a bottom portion and side walls standing upward from outer peripheries of the bottom portion, for reserving planting water therein, and a water outlet formed in part of the side walls for allowing planting water present in the water reservoir portion to overflow to the outside; and a side wall cover for covering at least one of the side walls of the plant cultivation container body from the outside. The side wall cover includes a fixing member attached to the side wall, a gutter member for receiving planting water flowing over through the water outlet, and a cover member for connecting the fixing member and the gutter member.

[Summary][Object] to provide a plant culturing apparatus and method which reduce the operating noise, allow liquid feeding and discharging as well as aeration within a culture vessel, thus facilitating culturing of a plant. [Solution] The plant culturing apparatus comprises: a transport unit 3 capable of transporting a fluid W between a culture vessel P for culturing a plant G and a reservoir T capable of reserving therein the fluid W to be fed to the plant G through a feed/discharge tube 2 connected and communicated with the transport unit 3 via a tube pump 1; and a direction switching unit 6 capable of switching a transporting direction of the fluid W by the transporting unit 3 between a direction for feeding the fluid W from the reservoir T to the culture vessel P and the opposite direction for discharging the fluid W from the culture vessel P to the reservoir T.

In order to allow a watering operation to take place in a stable manner and in an automatic manner to allow an amount of water as needed with growth of a plant, there is provided a plant cultivating method in which plant is cultivated in a plant cultivating flooring member 1 accommodated in a plant cultivating vessel P1 accommodated in a water reservoir vessel P2 reserving water W therein. In the method, the plant cultivating vessel P1 is constructed such that this vessel when accommodating the plant cultivating flooring member 1 therein can float on the water and the vessel includes a water inlet hole 2 formed in a bottom B thereof so as to allow intrusion of water from the outside to the inside thereof under the floating condition.
