PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seed-housing medium for housing the seeds of a plant or the like in a substrate material, which enables stable germination and growth irrespective of the material quality of cover film or the like, and the environment of a medium.SOLUTION: Since the seeds 5 and a polymer absorbent material 6 are housed together at a seed-housing part provided in the substrate material 2 and the seed-housing part is sealed with the cover film 7, the polymer adsorbent material 6 adsorbs water in soil on being buried in the soil to increase its volume, and the cover film 7 can surely be destroyed to increase the germination rate of the seeds 5.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、カバーフィルム等の材質や、培地の環境によらず、安定した発芽や成長が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2に設けた種子収納部に種子5と高分子吸収体6とを共に収納し、該種子収納部をカバーフィルム7で封止したため、土中に埋めた際に高分子吸収体6が土中の水分を吸収して体積が増加することにより、確実にカバーフィルム7を破壊し、種子5の発芽率を高めることが可能となる。【選択図】図1
