摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for producing consumer-ready vegetables, mushrooms or herbs, involving a) culturing vegetables, mushrooms or herbs in a closed container under suitable growing conditions until maturity and b) transferring the container with the mature ve-getable, mushrooms or herb to a retail outlet, wherein the vegetables, mushrooms or herbs are cultured in a container with a plant compartment for containing the vegetables, mushrooms or herbs and a separate water compartment for containing water and nutrients, wherein one of the two compartments is provided with means for allowing water and nutrients to enter the plant compartment while preventing contaminations and pathogens from entering the said plant compartment. Preventing contaminations is achieved a filter that is permeable to water and nutrients but impermeable to contaminations and pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, protists or insects, preferably in the bottom of the plant compartment.
