Drawing chamber or container in tikz

Question

I want to make the following diagram. I know the basics of tikz but here I'm struggling. Can you advise me how to make the container with seedlings? Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

If you only want to know how to make the container with TikZ, or what I understand by the container, this is a first solution. Please give more details for your question: do you want to know how to make the container or all the table?

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{calc}

\newcommand*{\seed}[1]{% #1 is the center
($#1-(0,.4)$) -- +(0,.8) ($#1+(-.22,0)$) -- +(.44,0) ($#1 +(-.15,.22)$) -- +(.3,0)    ($#1+(-.15,-.22)$) -- +(.3,0)
}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}[thick]

\foreach \x/\y [count=\i] in {0/0,0/-.5,-.8/-.5,-.8/-3,1.8/-3,1.8/-.5,1/-.5,1/0}{
\coordinate (p\i) at (\x,\y);}

\draw (p1) \foreach \i in {2,...,8}{
-- (p\i)};

\foreach \x/\y in {0/-1.2,0/-2.2,1/-1.2,1/-2.2}{
\draw[scale around={.7:(\x,\y)}] \seed{(\x,\y)};
};

\node[above] at (.5,0) {\LARGE $P_1$};

\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document} 

Please check if the figure obtained match with you request, I just reproduced what I saw.

The other containers can be obtained using \begin{scope}[shift={(x,0)}] ... \end{scope} with the code shown above inside it, considering x as the horizontal space you want. The arrows and other texts is just "play" with the coordinates and nodes.
