    摘要: 1,110,693. Treatment of growing plants. W. STRASSER. 6 July, 1965 [14 July, 1964], No. 28504/65. Heading A1E. A method of cultivating plants comprises dividing the cultivating area of a plant cultivation unit into two plots providing a room allowing artificial production of day and night conditions and treating plants in each of said plots in a similar cycle of 24 hours comprising a day period and a night period each cycle being composed of portions of the natural cycle of day and night and of portions of day conditions and night conditions artificially produced by maintaining each of the plots in the said room. The artificial day and night conditions relate to light and darkness and also to associated conditions such as temperature and humidity. As shown two rooms 6, 7 are located above the cultivating area and are displaceable on wheels 4, 5 along rails 2, the room 7 being such that it can be shifted into and through the room 6. The room 7 has an air conditioning plant 8, illuminating means 9, darkening means and irrigation means. The ends of the rooms 6, 7 may be closed by flexible walls and the rooms may be displaced along the rails by automatic control in accordance with the desired programme. In a modification the plants are grown in beds supported on a conveyer one portion of which is located within the artificial room and the other portion in the open air or in a greenhouse.
