The present disclosure relates to an LED lighting device for strawberry seedling raising.

The LED lighting device for strawberry seedling raising according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a light emitting unit composed of a first light emitting part composed of a red region wavelength emission LED and a blue region wavelength emission LED and a second light emitting part composed of the red region wavelength emission LED and an infrared region wavelength emission LED; and a control part for controlling the light emitting unit to manage a strawberry seedling raising, and controlling each LED included in the first light emitting part or the second light emitting part to be turned on/off based on a preset seedling raising mode.

The invention provides methods for producing seeds in watermelon. In one embodiment methods are provided comprising grafting of a seed parent onto a stress tolerant rootstock, pollinating the seed parent with pollen from a pollen donor, and cultivating the seed parent until seed is formed. In specific embodiments, triploid seeds produced by a method of the invention are rendered conspicuously distinguishable from tetraploid seeds, and thus readily selected manually or by an automated machine. Methods for increasing seed yield and/or quality are also provided.

The present disclosure relates to methods for the cultivation of perennial artichoke plants. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to methods of cultivating artichoke plants to increase the uniformity and yield of marketable products (e.g. edible mature buds), and to accurately program and condense the harvest interval of artichoke plants grown as perennials in a planting field in order to reduce production and harvesting costs.

To stabilize and improve efficiency of continuous flowering while eliminating season dependency in strawberry cultivation. First, a strawberry seed is germinated by controlling an environment adjusting device installed in a closed environment so as to achieve a first cultivation environment suitable for germination of strawberry. Next, a strawberry seedling germinated is grown by controlling the environment adjusting device so as to achieve a second cultivation environment suitable for growing strawberry seedling. Next, the strawberry seedling is further grown to cause a terminal flower cluster to flower by controlling the environment adjusting device so as to achieve a third cultivation environment suitable for flowering of the terminal flower cluster. Then, first and subsequent axillary flower clusters are caused to successively flower by controlling the environment adjusting device so as to achieve a fourth cultivation environment suitable for flowering of the first and subsequent axillary flower clusters.

The invention provides seed and plants of the watermelon line designated TSB-146-1170. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of watermelon line TSB-146-1170, and to methods for producing a watermelon plant produced by crossing a plant of watermelon line TSB-146-1170 with itself or with another watermelon plant, such as a plant of another line. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of a plant of watermelon line TSB-146-1170, including the fruits and gametes of such plants.

The invention provides seed and plants of cucumber hybrid SV7237CN and the parent lines thereof. The invention thus relates to the plants, seeds and tissue cultures of cucumber hybrid SV7237CN and the parent lines thereof, and to methods for producing a cucumber plant produced by crossing such plants with themselves or with another cucumber plant, such as a plant of another genotype. The invention further relates to seeds and plants produced by such crossing. The invention further relates to parts of such plants, including the fruit and gametes of such plants.

An expandable modular planting system (EMPS) for plant growing, the system comprising a garden bed having at least one wall panel for containing soil that is configured to grow at least one plant therein; and a weight support trellis module connected to the garden bed, wherein the weight support trellis module supports at least 30% of the at least one plant.
