About fertilizer


Roughly, there are two types of Japanese hydroponics fertilizers.
(Both can be purchased on the Internet.)

☆ Hyponica

, we will explain the practice of hydroponic culture.

Corn ( PET bottle hydroponics)

Home garden recommendation (★★)

rice subjects Corn genus
(Place of origin: Central America)

Suitable temperature for germination 15-35 ° C (anaerobic seed) varieties vary.

Sunlight conditions Sufficient sunshine hours and sunlight are required

Suitable temperature for growth 25-35 ° C (varies depending on the variety)

Continuous crop failure Yes (If it is soil, the land will die after planting)

Watering

Additional fertilizer time Out of sign

Days from sowing to harvesting 77 days (no hydroponic air pump)

Crop yield 1 (failed) (with one tree) (no hydroponic air pump)

 

Growth considerations

Seeding is done after it gets warm.
Seeds are planted with roots facing down
Don't grow multiple varieties together at the same place (to cross)
Harvest when the ear of the ear becomes brown
After harvesting, sweetness is halved in 1 hour, so it is better to eat immediately after harvesting
Grow two or more together to pollinate between different genes of the same species (cross-pollination)
Grow one fruit in a single state.

 

What you want to try in the future.

Only 1 bottle per bottle.
I want to see the actual progress of artificial pollination.
I want to try soil cultivation.

Hydroponics fertilizer water concentration

Estimated fertilizer water of green onion  (hydroponics)

When growing at 500 times the concentration of hyponica (> > Learn more about how to make it ) When raising at Otsuka House (OAT House) From germination to harvest Concentrate 2000 times (For each liter of water, each concentrate is 5ml, 2ml, 5ml, 5 and 0.25ml) (> > Learn more about how to make concentrate ) (※Japanese is translated into English by translation software.

Corn ( PET bottle hydroponics)

warm and cold corn cron harvest time

 

It ’s delicious to pick any vegetable.
Among them, especially corn is said to lose half its sweetness in 1 hour after harvesting.
The freshly picked food seems to be delicious. (^ ◇ ^)
Come! I want to taste it!
I decided to grow corn.

 

corn cron seeding

First, I examined corn.

 

As a result of examination,

Plants that cross-pollinate.
This is a plant that pollinates with the same kind and different males and females.
(Yes! Well then, you must plant more than 2?)
Also, fertilizer and enough sun are necessary ...
Because it is veranda cultivation, you can't get much space ... (;´・ω・)
I wonder if people raised by hydroponics will save space.
Well! Well, let's challenge anyway! (Anxiety)

 

 

 

 

Let's try sowing seeds.

corn cron sowing

Daiiso (One Dollar shop) buys two 100 yen corn seeds (/・ω・)/

Here are some methods of sowing that should be noted or practiced.

If you plant with the root growing down like the image above, it seems that the subsequent growth is good.

corn cron sowing

April 16, 2016 Planted in a plastic bottle hydroponic plant, paying attention to the direction of the species.

The average temperature in April was 15 ℃ in Tokyo.

Because corn seeds are phobic seeds, add palm peat until the seeds disappear.

(The optimal temperature for germination of this corn seed was 15-20 ° C.)

corn cron seed sowing

7 days after seeding.

(^ ◇ ^)

Since it is cross-pollination, I would like to grow with two as it is.

 

corn sprouting germ

7 days after germination

Bamboo? It has grown like that.

 

* When growing in Otsuka House (OAT House), use 1000 times concentrated solution until germination and fruiting It was.

After 11 days

The outside temperature is getting warmer

Growth is faster as if I felt it.

 

 

 

corn cron seeding

20 days later

It grows tall and seems to break whenever the wind blows.

(;´・ω・)

As a first aid, try to attach a column next to it,

 

corn cron seeding

After 34 days,

The stem is also thick

Neither wind nor victorious (`・ω・´)

The support was removed.

 

corn cron seeding

After 40 days,

Both have exceeded 40cm.

Here, the second lower leaf feels yellow ...

If the bottom leaves turn yellow

If you think that fertilizer shortage is thought,
I read it at the time of the survey ...(;´・ω・)
