ABSTRACT:
Using a seedbed with seeds, labor-saving farming can be realized, and a small amount of seedbeds can be provided as necessary in home gardening or small-scale farming. In large-scale farming, the seedbed with seeds reduces the labor required to replant young plants from the seedbeds into the ground using the existing tools and materials in production and marketing. Furthermore, simple and labor-saving seedbeds can be provided regardless of the amount of plants to be grown. The seedbed with seeds includes plant seeds, cotton-wool-like organic fiber bundle which is fluffy like cotton wool because of the twist and wave of the fiber although pieces of the fiber are arranged almost in the same direction; and a water-soluble paper. The plant seeds are inserted into the cotton-wool-like bundle. The cotton-wool-like bundle containing the plant seeds is compressed, as long as air and water are appropriately supplied, in the direction vertical to the direction of the fiber. The water-soluble paper is rolled in a way that the cotton-wool-like organic fiber bundle is covered. Both ends of the water-soluble paper roll are fixed with a fixing agent.
