PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a medium for seed storage to store seeds of vegetables, etc., in a substrate, effective for improving germination rate independent of embedding direction and angle, etc., of the medium in soil and suitable for hydroponic culture as well as soil culture.SOLUTION: Seeds are stored in a cavity of the substrate and the cavity is sealed with a cover film. Accordingly, water, nutrients, etc., can be absorbed in the seeds through openings at both sides of the cavity to improve the germination rate of the seeds independent of the direction, angle, etc., of the medium embedded in the soil.COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT【課題】植物等の種子を基材に収納してなる種子収納媒体において、種子収納媒体が土中に埋められた方向、角度等の条件を問わずに、種子の発芽率を向上させ、且つ、土壌栽培だけでなく水耕栽培にも対応可能な種子収納媒体を提供することにある。【解決手段】基材に設けた孔部に種子を収納し、該孔部をカバーフィルムで封止したため、種子収納媒体が土中に埋められた方向、角度等の条件を問わずに、孔部の両側の開口部から水分、養分等を吸収することが可能となり、種子の発芽率を高めることが可能となる。【選択図】図1
