Plant pots

Material required Surface soil samples (0-10 cm), plastic dishes (500 ml), etiolated seedlings of test plants, pots and white fluorescent lamp. 

Susceptible plants Potted plants under cover also mushrooms. 

Later work by Suzuki and Tokiwa(55,56,57) in which they evaluated the stability of polyesters to lipases confirmed the work of Potts. Potts(58) demonstrated the biodegradation of polycaprolactone which he used in the fabrication of agricultural articles, such as plant pots. J. P. Kendnck(59) demonstrated that amorphous regions of polyesters were more readily biodegraded than crystalline regions. 

Different horticultural items made of biodegradable polymers, such as plant pots, seed/fertilizer tape and binding materials, foams and nets for erosion control, offer reduction of system complexity by reducing the number of work steps. 

Variations between reagent responses maybe of minimal concern if the analytical data are intended solely to indicate major differences in soil behaviour (i.e., for comparative studies) and no special significance needs to be placed on the assignment terminology used, although the influence of other variables on extraction values probably contributes to the correlation problems associated with plant pot-trials. 

Lactic acid is an important chemical that has wide applications in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and chemical industries. There are increasing interests in production of lactate esters and biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) from lactic acid. Lactate esters are a relatively new family of solvents with specific properties. They are considered safe and are biodegradable (1). In many situations they can replace toxic solvents. Their functions vary from that of intermediates in chemical reactions to solvents in ink formulations and cleaning applications (2). PLA has been widely used in medical implants, sutures, and drug-delivery systems because of its capacity to dissolve over time (3-5). PLA also can be used in products such as plant pots, disposable diapers, and textile fabrics. 

Mature rice seeds (Oryza sativa L., Sasanishiki) harvested in 1992 were used. After 2- to 3-weeks culture, regenerated callus was transferred onto an acclimatization medium, consisting of MS medium supplemented with 5 mM MES and 4 g/L Gelrite prepared in a plant pot [78]. Incubation was done under the same...

Most biodegradable polymers can be used for making injection moulded articles. Starch-based polymers are used to manufacture a wide range of items such as pencil sharpeners, rulers, cartridges, combs and toys, plant pots and bones. 

Agriculture and horticulture applications include mulching film, covering film and plant pots. 

A variety of injection moulded articles can be produced using Mater-Bi. These include pencil sharpeners, rulers, cartridges, toys, plant pots, and bones. As an antistatic material, combs made of Mater-Bi do not produce the electrical charge given by conventional combs. 

Raspberries green plants (potted, not woody), 20 May to end of June. Brambles potted plants, end of March to end of June. 

Single or double blooms may be l"-6" wide. The 6 - 36" plants are covered with finely cut leaves. Marigolds may have a strong odor if you dislike the scent, look for an odorless cultivar. Marigolds are good bedding plants, pot plants, and cut flowers.

Although stramonium is described as an annual plant, a Datura inoxia specimen in my patio sprouted from its roots the second year - this in New Mexico with its bitterly freezing winters. Greenhouse plants, potted and kept from freezing, have consistently behaved as perennials, and when I dug up an inoxia early this spring to make room for another plant, the root was obviously still viable. Of the two species, I favor the inoxia over the stramonium, mostly because I love its sultry white flowers and their erotic perfume.

Make sure that the plant pot has at least one drainage hole and a layer of broken clay pieces or gravel at the bottom of the pot. 

This review emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis of Mo deficiency, in view of the effects that even small quantities of Mo (compared with other essential elements) can have on plant responses. A systematic and conservative approach is recommended when using and interpreting soil information, plant symptoms, soil analysis, plant analysis, pot trials, and field trials. Although there have been several localized analytical determinations of the critical Mo concentrations that define deficiency for soils and plants, such values cannot be extrapolated widely because of the many interactions affecting Mo concentrations in soils and plants. Pot techniques are emphasized as effective diagnostic tools.
