METHOD FOR GROWING PLANTS UNDER CONTROLLED CONDITIONS Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: agriculture and biotechnology. SUBSTANCE: method involves growing plants by sowing the seeds on vertically- arranged inert backing, for example from glass cloth with a developed capillary system. Plants are watered and top-dressed with nutrient solution supplied from top down with 0.1-5.0% concentration of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. At the root system formation stage the relation of N:P:P is (4-5):(1-4):(1-2), respectively; at the biomass formation stage the N:P:P relation is equal to 2:(4-5): (4-3) while at the culture ripening stage the P:P ratio is maintained within 5: (3-5), respectively, at an acidity modulus pH 5-9. Additionally, the nutrient solution is treated with microelements and once a week the plants are watered only with distilled magnetoelectric water. EFFECT: higher efficiency. 7 cl
