Problems solved by technology

However, the water retention capacity of the soil is relatively poor. When watering potted plants, most of the water is not kept in the soil, but flows out of the flowerpot from the seepage holes below the flowerpot, and the nutrients dissolved in the water are often lost. Lost together thereupon, this has caused the waste of water resource and nutrient composition on the one hand, also needs people to water or apply nutrient composition to potted plant repeatedly, repeatedly, otherwise potted plant just is difficult to survive; On the other hand, watering The water flowing out of the flower pot or the soil accidentally brought out of the pot is not beautiful, but also pollutes the indoor environment, which is very inconvenient

Embodiment 1

[0017] Use natural ingredients coconut water as the medium, inoculate Gluconoacetobacter xylinum (inoculum size 8%), ferment and culture in a static tray at 30°C for 5 days, obtain a biocellulose gel wet film, and separate the wet film from solid and liquid , Soak it with alkaline solution to remove the adsorbed culture medium and impurities, and then wash it repeatedly with deionized water. The biocellulose wet film was then cut into small particles with a particle size of 1 cm. Put the small biocellulose gel particles into a flowerpot, and when the volume of the flowerpot is about 80%, plant the plants, continue to add the small biocellulose gel particles, and fix the plants.

Embodiment 2

[0019] Synthetic culture medium was formulated with carbon source, nitrogen source and other raw materials commonly used in the field, inoculated with Gluconacetoacetobacter xylinum (10% inoculum), and fermented in a static tray at 28°C for 7 days to obtain biocellulose gel wet The wet membrane is separated from solid and liquid, soaked in alkaline solution to remove the adsorbed culture medium and impurities, and then washed repeatedly with deionized water. The biocellulose wet film was then cut into small particles with a particle size of 0.5 cm. Put the small biocellulose gel particles into a flowerpot, and when the volume of the flowerpot is about 80%, plant the plants, continue to add the small biocellulose gel particles, and fix the plants.

Embodiment 3

[0021] Synthetic culture medium is formulated with carbon sources, nitrogen sources and other raw materials commonly used in this field, inoculated with Gluconacetobacter xylinum (10% inoculum), and cultured on a dynamic shaker at 28°C for 7 days to directly obtain small spherical biocellulose Gel particles, the gel particles are separated from solid and liquid, soaked in lye to remove the culture medium and impurities adsorbed on them, and then washed repeatedly with deionized water. The biocellulose wet film was then cut into small particles with a particle size of 0.8 cm. Put the small biocellulose gel particles into a flowerpot, and when the volume of the flowerpot is about 80%, plant the plants, continue to add the small biocellulose gel particles, and fix the plants.

Abstract

The invention relates to new use of biological cellulose gel as a potted plant soil substitute, roots of a potted plant are in contact with the biological cellulose gel, and moisture, nutrients and the like are provided to the plant through the biological cellulose gel. The biological cellulose gel is granular biological cellulose gel. Through replacement of potted plant soil with biological cellulose gel granules, watering time interval is obviously prolonged due to better water holding capacity of the biological cellulose gel granules; when the moisture in the biological cellulose gel granules is absorbed by the plant, the biological cellulose gel granules may shrink, and the volume is reduced, so that if watering is needed can be determined according to the size of the biological cellulose gel granule volume accounting for a flowerpot volume.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a new application of biological cellulose gel, in particular to the new application of biological cellulose gel as a soil substitute for potted plants. Background technique [0002] Potted plants have good ornamental value, can provide vigorous vitality for families, office places, etc., and can also purify indoor air at the same time, and are more and more popular among people. Houseplants are usually grown in pots filled with soil, allowing the roots of the plants to absorb water and nutrients from the soil. However, the water retention capacity of the soil is relatively poor. When watering potted plants, most of the water is not kept in the soil, but flows out of the flowerpot from the seepage holes below the flowerpot, and the nutrients dissolved in the water are often lost. Lost together thereupon, this has caused the waste of water resource and nutrient composition on the one hand, also needs people to water or apply nut...
