Patent

CA 2261910

A water-retaining support for plant which exhibits a water-retaining ability comparable to that of a polyacrylic acid-type hydrogel substantially without causing the inhibition of root origination or inhibition of root elongation is obtained by using as a water-retaining support for plant comprising a hydrogel-forming polymer having a calcium ion absorption of less than 50 mg per 1g of the dry weight thereof and having a water absorption magnification in ion-exchange water (at room temperature; 25°C) of 100 or more. When the above water-retaining support is used, a plant may be supplied with sufficient water without suffering from deficiency of calcium ion.

Support de retenue d'eau conçu pour des plantes et présentant une absorption d'ions de calcium inférieure à 50 mg au gramme de poids sec et une capacité d'absorption d'eau d'au moins 100 fois le volume du support, comme déterminé dans de l'eau à échange d'ions (température ambiante 25 DEG C). Ce support possède des propriétés de retenue d'eau équivalentes à celles d'un hydrogel de sel polyacrylique et n'empêche sensiblement pas la formation et la croissance des racines. L'utilisation de ce support permet d'alimenter les plantes en une quantité suffisante d'eau, toute en les protégeant contre un manque en calcium.
