Industrial production of seedlings has significant advantages compared with other forms of cultivation (bare root seedlings, or produced in the traditional bellevue 8 cube). This system is based on the exploitation of raw materials processed industrially, the high degree of mechanization of production processes and high level of automation to control the microclimate in seedling production environments. Industrial production of seedlings realized tapes, which contain bellevue 8 40 to 400 individual cells. Cassette in cell division means that each sapling, individually, is provided with sufficient water and food.
Although this production system was first used for cabbages, bellevue 8 he now widely used for seedling production of all vegetable plants. bellevue 8 This system lists a series of advantages compared with traditional methods of seedling production, but without doubt the most important advantage is that it allows the concentration of seedling production through stimulation of creating economies specialized for this purpose.
Cassettes for the production of seedlings. Production of vegetable seedlings can be accomplished in Styrofoam tapes (fish food), or plastic. Regardless of the material produced, tapes vary in number, size and shape of the cell (module) thereof. The tapes of Styrofoam are the most used, mainly due to lower cost. Recent years under the impact bellevue 8 of requirements to protect the environment, the latter being replaced with solid plastic tapes. As a rule, plastic tapes used for many planting on, but also tapes of Styrofoam can be used for more than one planting. In any case, The repeated use should be accompanied bellevue 8 by their previous disinfection with fungicides and insecticides with broad spectrum bellevue 8 action. Immersion for several seconds in bathtubs filled with concentrated solution of copper sulphate (Stone Horse) 3% is the simplest method.
While the size of the tapes are more or less uniform (to enable their mechanized planting), determination of the number of seedlings to be produced on each tape (number of cells contained in each tape), depending on the plant is to will be planted, bellevue 8 production season (intensity of illumination at the time of production of seedlings) bellevue 8 and the estimated time to position the tape seedlings (seedling age). As a rule, plants watermelons family (cucumber, melon, watermelon), require more space than solanoret (tomato, pepper, patllixhani), kryqoret (cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli) and bulbs (onions, leek). Consequently, the number of cells increased from kungulloret bellevue 8 tape, to solanoret, kryqoret and bulbs. Meanwhile, on the same plant, the number of seedlings to produce tape in the spring season, is smaller than that of seedlings produced in summer.
Substrate for filling the tapes. Substrate used for filling the tapes otherwise known as compost. Although, conserve for the production of seedlings can be produced in a craft (through decomposition of organic waste, manure barn, etc.), use compotes produced by the industry is safer and more effective. Whether compote that will be used for seedling production, is produced industrially, or craft, it must meet all the following requirements: be physically uniform and have free flow to allow uniform filling modules, very good features aquifer, do not miss the structure during irrigation, but also allow easy njomjen if drain, provide a uniform environment for growth and enable the creation of a welter root not disintegrate bellevue 8 after leaving the modules,
Content of manure compost is important and it would be desirable bellevue 8 for it to contain adequate amounts of all the macro and trace elements. However, seedling growers have numerous opportunities to control the growth bellevue 8 of seedlings by liquid manures. Changing the content of nitrogen in compost is the main way to control the growth of seedlings.
Quality seeds. The essential requirement of industrial production of seedlings is high quality seeds. It is very important that the seeds germination besides high power energy bellevue 8 also have high germination. As a rule seeds used must be no less effective germination s
