Abstract:
It is possible to obtain natural and highly functional vegetables for human nutrition if the conditions are present of having a substrate that will provide optimal conditions specific to each so as to achieve a maximum use of all biotic and abiotic elements for optimal germination and growth of vegetable organisms. This is maximized by producing a species-specific biomass eclosor, herein called EBES, which is the live or latently alive set of chemical, biochemical, biological and other specific related ingredients of the species that induce eclosion or germination in addition to providing nutritional-alimentary support specific to each plant throughout its entire productive cycle. This invention is applicable to optimize germination, growth and production of any type of cultivable vegetable and is also applicable to the human world.

Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION  
         [0001]    1. Field of the Invention  
           [0002]    In the field of vegetable production, organisms must have essential materials to reproduce and prosper in a certain situation that are required for development and their reproduction.  
           [0003]    2. Description of the Related Art  
           [0004]    These basic requirements vary according to the species and the situation. In a constant state, the essential material available in quantities that best approach the critical minimum necessary will tend to be limitative material. Each species in particular possesses factors that limit their development, which are intrinsic to the species and their environment or ecological niche.  
         SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION  
         [0005]    This is exactly the situation that this patent application for the species-specific biomass eclosor, a product that will be called EBES in this invention and which is the principal objective of this invention.  
           [0006]    In turn, the existence and prosperity of an organism depends on the completeness of a set of conditions. The absence or deterioration of an organism may be due to a qualitative or quantitative deficiency or excess with respect to any one of several factors that perhaps approach the limits of tolerance of the organism in question.  
           [0007]    Not only may the absence of something but also the excess of something constitute a restriction on growth. EBES corrects this distortion, which occurs in all systems of vegetable production and inhibits the germination and growth of vegetables, causing results different from what occur under optimal conditions.  
         DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION  
         [0008]    In reference to technological solutions to the problem that have arisen over time, progress has only been made in the formulation and fabrication of fertilizers and nutrients that do not allow plants to find a system of optimal germination, growth and development because they do not suffice to complete the set of conditions that permit the desired optimal existence and prosperity. The optimal growing conditions of a vegetable organism stem from countless factors, but work has been done both physiologically as well as biochemically on the needs of plants, principally in families and, to a lesser degree, on specificity in species, subspecies or new varieties. Even though this cumulus of highly specialized technical information is available, the common farmer cannot interpret it in full for several reasons, such as: knowledge, availability of inputs, ancient farming techniques and practices, etc. The EBES is sustained principally on the following biological constant: “The biomass development and productivity of live organisms will depend largely on the nutrition and nourishment that they receive in the early stages of life.” Technological solutions to this problem that the EBES will present will be intrinsic to the EBES and will be the result of all the disciplines mentioned in this invention whose ultimate purpose will be the living or latently alive “SPECIES-SPECIFIC SUBSTRATE”, which will need a certain organism for its appropriate future development.  
           [0009]    The EBES is a Live or Latently Alive Substrate Product that is biodynamic and multisistemic and produces the desired conditions specific to an optimal germination and growth of vegetable organisms. It is a prop that offers protection, optimal microbiological conditions of moisture and temperature, rooting and nutrition of vegetables, depositing it in its place of eclosion, germination and definitive production.  
           [0010]    The EBES is the live or latently alive set of species-specific chemical, biochemical, biological and other related ingredients which induce eclosion or germination.

           [0097]    The stages for elaboration of EBES are the following:  
           [0098]    1. Investigation and analytical sampling of the germoplasmic and seed forms, germination, vegetation, florescence and fruit of the species, subspecies or variety and environment of its ecological niche.  
           [0099]    2. Investigation of its phylogeny (development of the species) and ontogeny (development of the individual).  
           [0100]    3. Investigation of biomass productivity.  
           [0101]    4. Assays in natural and protected environments.

           [0104]    A sheet of variable length, width and thickness, which may be multi-layered and/or multiporous, of biodegradable and bioreactive material.  
           [0105]    The seed will be placed on the upper end, which will have been previously sterilized and analyzed by existing means for its viability, at the required distance and attached to a tape or sheet by means of insertion, pressure, electrostatic attraction, gums or another mechanism.  
           [0106]    A fine layer of biodegradable material will be used to cover the seed, which will have first been inoculated or microencapsulated with lyophilisate spores of fungi, yeast, bacteria and other beneficial edaphic flora or fauna that form mycorrhiza.  
           [0107]    The lower part of the EBES will have a water containment layer or system and colloids and it may be designed in a V or other shape. It will also be a biodegradable dark color in order to impede the growth of weeds under the germinable seed.  
           [0108]    The EBES may be arranged in the form of rolls, briquettes, laminas or another type or design, depending on utilization.  
           [0109]    The EBES will be comprised of part or all elements, compounds, complexes, systems, chemicals, biochemicals, biological elements and others mentioned above. 
       
    
    
     EXAMPLE  
       [0110]    An example of the application of the EBES invention  
         [0111]    A cylindrical substrate with a central orifice in the mediastin in which the seed selected from superior plants will be deposited. The substrate will be lined by biodegradable synthetic or organic cloth. Its dimensions will be all those that best adapt to optimal germination, growth and production of the plant.  
         [0112]    This type of species-specific substrate will be deposited in the earth in an orifice larger than the hydrated substrate, leaving an interior space which will create the optimal conditions of temperature due to the use of mineral salts that provide endergonic and exergonic reactions which produce biophysical, chemical and biostechiometric synergic reactions when they react with water to achieve nutrition-alimentation of vegetables. In the early phases of growth, there will be no other plants near its natural growth radius, principally because they are deposited in an initial orifice deeper than the plantlet, which makes it compete for light, thereby experiencing a greater growth pace.  
         [0113]    The other advantages are that the orifice, made with a tool, allows it to root more and better, also because of the mycorrhizal association that will be formed parallel to the eclosion of the seed. It will also offer better protection against animal and man tracks, as well as excessive rain and landslides. The trees and shrubs planted in this way do not need a nursery and the eclosion and germination process occurs with the initial irrigation.
