Mini watermelons grow in pots

The sweet potato on the ceiling, the long watermelon in the pot, the lettuce in the pipeline... In the second Harbin Horticultural Festival, some novel horticultural cultivation techniques made people open their eyes.

Yesterday morning, the reporter saw in the fruit and vegetable base cultivation area in the 7th exhibition area that a kind of native Japanese mini watermelon grows in a pot, and the melon twists up along a well-designed rope net, with a fist-sized watermelon. Hanging on guaguai makes it especially enjoyable. Staff said that as long as the light, temperature and other conditions meet, this kind of watermelon can be just like flowers and plants at home.

The reporter also saw that the sweet potatoes that were originally grown in the ground were cultivated in a square box. Interestingly, the boxes contained not soil but sand-like materials. The boxes were also covered with water pipes and nutrient solution lines. The staff explained that this kind of thing like sand and gravel is actually a matrix, which is equivalent to artificial soil. The biggest advantage is that it does not carry pests and diseases, and it can be reused after disinfection. The most special thing is not here yet. The staff told the reporter that after a few months the melon rakes have covered the grid on the ceiling, they will be able to present a unique landscape of “air potato”.

There is no soil underneath and replaced by pools of water, and water circulation and nutrient solution circulation lines on the masonry floor. Also in the exhibition area on the 7th, after entering the exotic fruits region, what the reporter sees is totally different from the traditional sense. Fruit and vegetable production scenarios. Above an arch-shaped movable pipe, covered with green lettuce and lettuce. When the reporter approached, they found that they were all in a small hole above the pipe, and the roots wrapped a sponge-like thing. The staff explained that the water flowing in the pipeline is the water, and the nutrient solution in the “sponge” provides nutrients to the vegetables and fixes their roots.

Thanks to the matrix soilless cultivation techniques, the fruits and vegetables grown here are all grown off the ground. Horticulturalists give full play to their imagination and use brackets and pipes as carriers to grow various fruits and vegetables in a three-dimensional space. Ms. Wang, a citizen, said with emotion that the idea of ​​vegetable cultivation was only a monotonous thing dealing with the land. I can't think that with the advancement of science and technology, vegetables can be artistically like this.
