Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022248191A1] The invention relates to a method and to a device by means of which the processing of plants can be made more efficient. The problem is solved by the plants (15) and in particular plant-based and artificial solid growth media or substrates being subjected to automated inspection. For this purpose, a sample and/or an image of at least one plant (15) or at least one solid growth medium or the substrate is automatically created by a sensor unit (20, 21). This sample and/or this image is then compared by means of an evaluation device with known samples and/or images of plants (15) and/or solid growth media/substrates which are contaminated.
