Patent

CA 2370234

Improved growing pans (24) for aeration of modular plant units are provided comprising a network of air channels (10) in fluid communication with a plurality of aeration orifices (22) at the bottom surface of the pans (24). Optimum gaseous mixtures are forced up through the growing medium (14) to provide evenly distributed air pockets throughout plant root systems. Alternatively, gases may be suctioned out of the growing medium (14). This invention provides for soil aeration for all types of growing media, promoting stronger and deeper root growth. Circulation of air is provided, removing carbon dioxide, methane, hydrogen sulfide and other harmful gases from the root systems and surrounding plant environment.

L'invention concerne des bacs de croissance perfectionnés destinés à l'aération d'unités de plantes modulaires, comprenant un réseau de conduits d'air en communication fluidique avec plusieurs orifices d'aération situés au fond des bacs. Des mélanges gazeux optimaux sont injectés dans le milieu de croissance pour constituer des poches d'air uniformément réparties dans les racines des plantes. En variante, des gaz peuvent être aspirés en dehors du milieu de croissance. L'invention concerne l'aération du sol dans tous les types de milieux de croissance, favorisant la croissance de racines plus fortes et plus profondes. La circulation d'air est possible grâce à l'élimination du dioxyde de carbone, du méthane, du sulfure d'hydrogène et d'autres gaz nocifs des racines et de l'environnement proche des plantes.
