Description

The present invention is a plant covering cover capable of covering (covering) a plant being cultivated in a flower pot, and in particular, a plant covering cover suitable for performing flower mating work (pollination work) for the purpose of improving varieties. , The plant pollination method using the plant covering cover.

Mating for the purpose of breeding of plants such as flowers and vegetables is usually carried out by pollinating the flowers of the plant with pollen. There are two types of pollination: self-pollination and cross-pollination. Allogeneic pollination includes pollination of insect-borne flowers, wind-borne flowers, and bird-borne flowers. In any pollination, pollen other than the target pollen is prevented from being pollinated. In particular, in the case of pollination of endemic plants, it is necessary to prevent pollen of other species of plants from pollinating. In order to ensure the independence of endemic species, it is necessary to isolate the pollinating plant from other plants. However, until now, there is no pollination material (isolator) that can isolate plants and pollinate, so pollinated flowers are individually wrapped in medicine wrapping paper or covered with paper bags to prevent other pollen from sticking. The current situation is that the plants are covered with a commercially available insect repellent net and isolated. As the insect repellent net, there are nets such as Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Documents. In addition, there is also a sheet-shaped net that can be cut to the required shape and dimensions and used.

However, with the method of wrapping with medicine wrapping paper or hanging a paper bag, if the plant is outdoors, the medicine wrapping paper or paper bag may get wet with rain. The weight of the medicine wrapping paper or paper bag wet with rain may put a burden on the flowers, causing the flowers to deform or fall, resulting in a decrease in fertilization rate. In addition, the flowers get steamed and die in the medicine wrapping paper or paper bag, the flowers are torn off by the wind blowing the medicine wrapping paper or paper bag, or the medicine wrapping paper or paper bag is torn and the isolation from other plants becomes insufficient. There is also a risk of pollinating pollen.

The pollination separator not only can isolate the plant to be crossed from other plants, but also it is easy to cover the plant, it is easy to pollinate with it covered, the growth of the plant is not hindered even if it is covered, and the plant's It is required that the shape of the grass does not easily lose its shape.

However, since the net of Patent Document 1 does not open around the net, pollination work with the net covered is difficult. The insect repellent net of the non-patent document can be put on the support column standing in the flowerpot, but as shown in FIGS. It is difficult to pollinate the flowers in the upper part. In particular, since the depth width in the net is narrow, it is difficult to pollinate flowers in the depth direction. Since the internal space at the top is narrow, the plant growth space is not sufficiently secured, and it is difficult for plants to grow. The grass shape of growing plants tends to lose shape. For these reasons, neither the net of Patent Document 1 nor the net of non-patent document is suitable for use for mating.

If the plant is a collection of tubular flowers such as Asteraceae, multiple pollination operations may be required due to the difference in maturity of stamens and pistils. In this case, in the method of wrapping with medicine wrapping paper or covering with a paper bag, the medicine wrapping paper or the paper bag must be removed or replaced every time pollination is performed, which puts a burden on the flowers and tends to cause the flowers to fall or weaken. In addition, it is troublesome to remove and replace medicine wrapping paper and paper bags.

MARSOL ONLINE "Slit type insect repellent net" (https://item.rakuten.co.jp/marsol-morishita/10001421/)

The problem to be solved of the present invention is that it is easy to cover the plant being cultivated in the plant pot, it is easy to pollinate the plant while it is covered, the growth of the plant is not hindered even if it is covered, the shape of the plant is not easily deformed, and the pollination work is completed. To provide a plant covering cover that can be reliably covered and isolated from the outside even afterwards, the flowers are not easily damaged even if pollination work is performed multiple times, and the pollination work can be easily performed multiple times. The present invention is to provide a plant pollination method using the plant covering cover.

In the plant covering cover of the present invention, the upper end side of the tubular peripheral surface net is closed with a planar upper surface net, the bottom surface of the peripheral surface net is opened to form a bottom surface opening, and the inside of the peripheral surface net and the upper surface net is provided. There is an internal space in. The interior space is large and long enough to cover the stanchions and the perimeter of the plant being cultivated. There is a vertically long opening / closing part at any position in the circumferential direction of the peripheral surface net, and the opening / closing part is opened from the upper end side of the peripheral surface net to the bottom opening or near the bottom opening, and one end in the circumferential direction of the peripheral surface net. And the other end are overlapped on the inside and outside and closed. The opening / closing part opens when the overlapped outer end is expanded to the side of the inner end, and closes when the expanded outer end is returned to the outside of the inner end.

The plant covering cover of the present invention can cover the stanchions erected in the flowerpot and the outer periphery of the plant being cultivated in the flowerpot, or can cover the stanchions erected on the ground and the outer periphery of the plant being cultivated in the open field.

In the plant pollination method of the present invention, the plant covering cover is placed on the outside of several erected stanchions and the plant being cultivated, the struts and the outer periphery of the plant are covered, and the opening / closing portion of the plant covering cover is closed. The plant is isolated from the surroundings, the opening and closing part is opened to pollinate the plant in the plant covering cover from the opened portion, and after the pollination work is completed, the opening and closing part is closed to isolate the plant from the surroundings. The opening / closing part can be closed by locking the inner end portion and the outer end portion which are overlapped to the support with a stopper.

In the plant pollination method of the present invention, the pillars erected in the flowerpot and the outer periphery of the plant being cultivated in the flowerpot are covered, or the pillars erected on the ground and the outer periphery of the plant being cultivated in the open field are covered. It is also possible to isolate these plants from the surroundings and pollinate in that state. When covering and isolating a plant being cultivated in a flowerpot, it is desirable to cover the outer periphery of the flowerpot with the bottom opening of the plant covering cover to prevent pollen from invading from the bottom opening. When pollinating the flowers in the back of the opening / closing part of the plant covering cover (opposite the opening / closing part), rotate the plant covering cover in the circumferential direction of multiple columns and plants, and move the opening / closing part to the back. After shifting to the flower side, the opening / closing part can be opened for pollination work.

The plant covering cover of the present invention has the following effects.
(1) Since the opening / closing part can be opened to pollinate while covering the support and the outer periphery of the plant, there is no trouble of removing the plant covering cover covering the support and the outer circumference of the plant at the time of pollination and re-covering after pollination. There is no damage to the plant by covering or removing it.
(2) Since the flowers to be pollinated can be reliably isolated from the outside, the independence of the flowers to be pollinated can be ensured, and cross-pollination such as insect-borne flowers, wind-borne flowers, and bird-borne flowers can be prevented, which is particularly suitable for pollination of endemic species.
(3) A planar upper net is provided at the upper end of the tubular peripheral net, and the internal space on the upper end side of the peripheral net is also secured in a tubular shape, so that the work space becomes wider and pollination work can be performed. It becomes easier to pollinate, the growth of the plant is less likely to be hindered, and the shape of the plant is less likely to lose its shape.
(4) The opening and closing part can be set on the flower side in the back by rotating it while covering the support and the outer circumference of the plant, and the opening and closing part can be opened to pollinate the flower. It is easy to pollinate the flowers in the entire circumferential direction inside the plant covering cover without inserting a hand.
(5) If the internal space of the peripheral net is long enough to cover from the top of the column to the outer circumference of the flowerpot, cover the bottom opening of the peripheral net on the outside of the flowerpot and lock it to the flowerpot to lock the bottom surface. The opening can also be closed, and cross-pollination of insect-borne flowers from the bottom opening can be prevented.

The plant pollination method of the present invention has the following effects.
(1) Since the opening is opened with the plant covering cover covering the support and the outer periphery of the plant, pollination work is performed from the opened portion, so that pollination work can be easily performed. Further, even when one flower is pollinated a plurality of times, the flower can be prevented from being damaged because it is only necessary to open and close the opening, and the pollination work can be easily performed a plurality of times.
(2) Since the opening / closing part of the peripheral net of the plant covering cover is locked to the support column, the opening / closing part is surely closed, and even if it is placed outside, it will not be inadvertently opened by the wind. Therefore, it is possible to secure the independence of the flowers to be pollinated and prevent cross-pollination such as insect-borne flowers, wind-borne flowers, and bird-borne flowers. In addition, even if it gets wet in the rain, it does not tear like medicine wrapping paper or paper bags, so it can prevent cross-pollination, and it does not become heavy and burden the flowers, so it can prevent a decrease in fertilization rate.
(3) Since the plant covering cover having an internal space secured in a cylindrical shape is put on the support and the outer periphery of the plant, the plant covering cover is less likely to be tilted or misaligned. In addition, since the plant growth space is secured in the upper part of the internal space, the plant growth is not easily hindered and the grass shape is not easily deformed.
(4) Since the position of the opening / closing part can be changed by rotating the plant covering cover while covering the support and the outer periphery of the plant, pollination work on the flowers in the back of the plant covering cover can be easily performed.

(Embodiment of plant covering cover)
An embodiment of the plant covering cover of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6. The illustrated plant covering cover is merely an example. The plant covering cover of the present invention may have other shapes, structures and functions as long as the problems of the present invention can be solved. As an example of the plant, the plant shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 5, and 6 is an entomophily, Strawflower, but of course, it can be used for pollination of other plants. Further, although the case of covering the pillars and plants inserted in the flowerpot is shown, it is also possible to cover the outer periphery of the plants cultivated in the open field and the pillars inserted around the plants.

The plant covering cover 1 (FIG. 2) of the present invention is made of a net, and has three columns 3a, 3b, 3c inserted into the flowerpot 2 and the outer periphery of the plant 4 cultivated in the flowerpot 2 as shown in FIG. It is used by covering it as shown in FIG.

In the plant covering cover 1, the upper end side of the tubular peripheral surface net 5 is closed by the planar upper surface net 6, and the lower end side (hem) is opened to form the bottom surface opening 7. The inside of the peripheral surface net 5 and the upper surface net 6 is a hollow internal space 8. There is an opening / closing portion 9 at one position in the circumferential direction of the peripheral surface net 5. The opening / closing portion 9 opens in the vertical direction from the upper end side to the lower end of the peripheral surface net 5. The opening / closing portion 9 is closed by superimposing the other end portion (outer end portion: stacking allowance) 11 on the outer side of one end portion (inner end portion) 10 in the circumferential direction of the peripheral surface net 5. As shown in FIG. 5, the opening / closing portion 9 is designed to open when the outer end portion 11 is extended to the outside of the inner end portion 10.

The peripheral surface net 5 and the upper surface net 6 can be made by cutting a commercially available insect repellent net into a required shape and size and then sewing or adhering them with an adhesive. Commercially available insect repellent nets are breathable and translucent, and have a mesh size that prevents pests and pollen from entering. In addition to the insect repellent net, if there is a suitable net as a plant cover for mating, that net can also be used.

As the columns 3a, 3b, and 3c, commercially available three ring columns (ring columns) can be used. As shown in FIG. 3, in a commercially available ring strut, three strut 3a, 3b, and 3c are arranged in a substantially equilateral triangle, and the upper end side of the strut 3a, 3b, and 3c is arranged so as to spread outward from the lower end side, and the strut 3a is arranged. Three points in the length direction of 3b and 3c are connected by a circular upper ring 12a, a middle ring 12b, and a lower ring 12c. The diameter of these rings is maximum for the upper ring 12a and minimum for the lower ring 12c in accordance with the upward spread of the columns 3a, 3b, and 3c. The columns 3a, 3b, and 3c may be connected at two or four or more points in the longitudinal direction. These connection points are connected by a ring. It is also possible to use different columns 3a, 3b, and 3c one by one.

The peripheral surface net 5 in FIG. 2 has a square tubular shape, but may have a cylindrical shape, an elliptical tubular shape, or a tubular shape having another shape. The upper surface net 6 in FIG. 2 is also a quadrangle, but its shape can be a circle, an ellipse, a triangle, or any other shape according to the shape of the peripheral net 5. FIG. 6 is an example in which the upper surface net 6 is made circular. The inner diameter of the peripheral surface net 5 has a cylindrical shape in which the upper end side is wide and the lower end side is narrow in accordance with the upward expansion of the connecting ring in FIG. 3, but the inner diameter is the same from the lower end side to the upper end side. However, it may have a tubular shape in which the upper end side is narrow and the lower end side is wide.

The internal space 8 has a tubular shape having an inner diameter and a length that can cover the outside of the plant being cultivated by the columns 3a, 3b, 3c inserted into the flowerpot 2 and the flowerpot 2. As shown in FIG. 1, the bottom opening 7 of the internal space 8 has a size (inner diameter) that covers the outer periphery of the flowerpot 2. The bottom opening 7 covering the outer periphery of the flowerpot 2 has an inner diameter and a length that can cover the circumference of the three columns 3a, 3b, 3c (FIG. 3) and the plant 4 (FIG. 3) being cultivated in the flowerpot 2. ..

The opening / closing portion 9 is open from the upper end side to the lower end of the peripheral surface net 5, the outer end portion 11 is overlapped on the outer side of the inner end portion 10 of the peripheral surface net 5, and the outer end portion 11 is the inner end portion 10. The internal space 8 is opened when it is expanded (opened) to the side of the above, and the internal space 8 is closed when the expanded outer end portion 11 is returned (overlapped) to the outside of the inner end portion 10. The opening / closing portion 9 may be opened near the lower end of the peripheral surface net 5 without opening to the lower end.

As shown in FIG. 4, the opening / closing portion 9 is such that the overlapped inner end portion 10 and the outer end portion 11 are wound around any of the columns 3a, 3b, and 3c (3a in FIG. 4), and a commercially available garden clip or a washing sandwich is used. It is locked with a stopper 13 such as the above so that it will not be opened carelessly even if it is fanned by the wind. In this case, as shown in FIG. 1, the hem side 5a of the peripheral net 5 is covered under the peripheral portion 2a of the flowerpot 2, and the hem side 5a is also locked to the peripheral portion 2a of the flowerpot 2 with the stopper 13 to open the bottom surface. It is possible to prevent the invasion of pests from the part 7 and the feeding damage due to the invasion.

The opening / closing portion 9 may be provided at two or more locations in the circumferential direction of the peripheral surface net 5. When it is provided at two places, it is desirable to provide it at two places facing each other in the circumferential direction of the peripheral surface net 5. When it is installed in three or more places, it is desirable to install it in places with equal intervals in the circumferential direction. When provided at two or more locations, the opening / closing portions 9 at each location can be opened for pollination work. The opening / closing portions 9 at two or more locations may have the same structure or different structures.

When the upper surface net 6 is made circular as shown in FIG. 6, the hem 11a of the outer end portion 11 of the opening / closing portion 9 is narrowed and wound around the outer periphery of the columns 3a, 3b, and 3c diagonally without slack. Also in this case, the outer end portion 11 is locked to any of the columns 3a, 3b, and 3c by the stopper 13, and the hem side 5a of the peripheral surface net 5 is covered under the peripheral portion 2a of the flowerpot 2 to the hem side. By locking the 5a to the peripheral edge portion 2a with the stopper 13, the closed portion 9 can be reliably closed and the invasion of pests from below and the feeding damage by the pests can be prevented.

(Embodiment of Plant Pollination Method)
An embodiment of the plant pollination method of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. This embodiment is a method of pollinating a plant cultivated in a flowerpot, but it may be a method of pollinating a plant cultivated in the open field. Moreover, since this embodiment is merely an example, another pollination method may be used as long as the problem of the present invention can be solved.

The plant pollination method of the present invention is a method of mating (pollinating) a plant 4 being cultivated in a flowerpot 2, and is being cultivated in the columns 3a, 3b, 3c and the flowerpot 2 inserted into the flowerpot 2 as shown in FIG. The outer periphery of the plant 4 is covered with the above-mentioned plant covering cover 1, the inner end portion 10 and the outer end portion 11 of the opening / closing portion 9 of the plant covering cover 1 are overlapped with each other, and a stopper 13 is attached to the support column 3a as shown in FIG. Lock and close to keep plant 4 isolated from its surroundings. At the time of pollination work, the stopper 13 is removed, the opening / closing portion 9 is opened as shown in FIG. 5, and the flower of the plant 4 in the plant covering cover 1 is pollinated from the opened portion. After the pollination work is completed, the opening / closing portion 9 is locked to the support column 3a with the stopper 13 and closed to isolate the plant 4 from the surroundings.

By opening the opening / closing portion 9 as shown in FIG. 5, it is easy to pollinate the flowers on the opening / closing portion 9, but it may be difficult to pollinate the flowers in the back. At this time, the plant covering cover 1 is rotated in the circumferential direction of the columns 3a, 3b, and 3c, the opening / closing portion 9 is set at a position opposite to that before the rotation, and the opening / closing portion 9 is opened there to perform pollination work. You can also. When the opening / closing portion 9 is provided at two or more locations in the circumferential direction of the peripheral surface net 5, the opening / closing portion 9 at a location close to the portion to be pollinated is opened while the plant covering cover 1 is fixed at the same position without rotating. Can perform pollination work.

In the case of a flower that requires a plurality of pollination operations, the opening / closing unit 9 can be opened and closed each time pollination is performed.
