Abstract:
1. An apparatus for cultivating an object, comprising: a cover body having a space for receiving the object, the cover body being cut in halves in a longitudinal direction such that the two halves are connected along a closed side and an openable side of the cover body, wherein the first and second halves are connected by an elastic support, and said first and second halves is kept in an opened state along the openable side by the elastic support with an outward elastic force; a plurality of air vent holes formed in the cover body; a stem hole formed at one end of the cover body; a leaf hole formed at the other end of the cover body; at least a fastening element formed at the openable side of the cover body for allowing the opened cover body to be fastened into a closed state or the closed cover body to be separated into an opened state; wherein each of the fastening element includes at least a pair of a cover body distortion prevention projections, wherein the cover body distortion prevention projections protrude from the catching protrusion to wrap and fix opposite sides of the respective catching step when the respective catching step is hooked on the catching protrusion for preventing the cover body from being distorted due to an expansion pressure produced by the object and then applied to the cover body, cover body separation/opening supports for unfastening and opening the cover body when the cover body is fastened, wherein said cover body separation/opening supports includes a first separation/opening support protruding from a top surface of each of said catching steps; and a second separation/opening support protruding from a top surface of the catching protrusion at a side of the cover body distortion prevention projections and longitudinally adjacent the corresponding catching step when in a closed state.
