Abstract: A cultivation method repeats a cultivation step, an exporting step, a working step, and an importing step in this order. In the cultivation step, plants are cultivated in a state where a plurality of cultivation units are accommodated in a storage rack. A plurality of cultivation vessels are disposed in the plurality of cultivation units. Each of the plurality of cultivation vessels is configured to hold the plants and a culture solution. In the exporting step, at least one of the cultivation units is transported by a transportation device from the storage rack to a workstation. In the working step, a new culture solution is supplied to a plurality of cultivation vessels. In the importing step, the cultivation unit is imported into the storage rack by the transportation device.

Abstract: A substrate is transparent and has a mesh shape conductor pattern. In a first substrate, a conductor pattern includes arrays of circular closed curves, and respective adjacent arrays include arrays different in period, waveform, or phase. In a second substrate, the mesh shape is formed by two or more types of circular closed curves. In a third substrate, the mesh shape is formed by three or more types of circular closed curves. In a fourth substrate, a single type of circular closed curves is used, and one circular closed curve is surrounded by six circular closed curves. In a fifth substrate, a single type of circular closed curves is used. However, four circles contact with one circle at top, bottom, left, and right, is excluded. In a sixth substrate, one or more types of circular closed curves are used, and three or more types of openings are formed.
