Description

  The present invention relates to a protective mat for plant growth that protects the growth of planted plants from weeds, and a plant growing method using the mat.

  Conventionally, when plants such as grass and cocoons are planted on slopes or other planting grounds and nurtured, weeds other than the plants to be cultivated will grow first, and the growth of plants to be cultivated To prevent this, human labor is required to remove these weeds regularly, especially when the planting area is very large. The removal of the weeds tends to be negligible, and as a result, the plants to be cultivated are hidden in the weeds, hindering the growth, and in extreme cases, they die, and only the weeds are planted while planting. It will be in a prosperous state.

In view of the above, the present invention provides a protective mat for plant growth that suppresses the growth of the weeds so as to eliminate the need to remove the weeds that grow around the plant to be grown by human labor, and the mat. The provision of a plant growing method is a technical issue.
Other technical problems of the present invention are particularly suitable for the growth of plants having rhizomes or vines that crawl on the surface of the earth and crabs (runners, strons, etc.) that crawl on the ground and germinate weeds around the plants to be cultivated, An object of the present invention is to provide a protective mat for plant growth that suppresses the growth but allows the roots of the above-mentioned plants to pass through the roots and roots of the stems.

The protective mat for plant growth of the present invention for solving the above problems is basically a non-woven fabric forming a mat for planting laying, and germination and growth of weeds from the planting site on the lower surface on which the nonwoven fabric is laid. However, it is characterized in that the roots from the rhizomes that crawl on the surface of the earth and the stems that grow in the shape of vines and crawl on the surface of the ground have a roughness to pass.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the non-woven fabric is used in which a number of planting holes are previously drilled with plant planting gaps. The nonwoven fabric is preferably formed by bonding polypropylene fibers by a spunbond method, and has a basis weight of 100 to 300 g / m ³ and a bulk density of 0.05 to 0.28 / cm ^3. Used for.

  Moreover, the plant growing method of the present invention for solving the above-described problems is the above-mentioned mat for planting land laying in a planting land, and plant seedlings or seeds are planted in the planting land through the mat. While suppressing the germination and growth of weeds from the planting area on the lower surface, the roots from the rhizomes that crawl on the ground and the vines that grow on the surface of the ground are cultivated through the mat to grow planted plants It is characterized by making it.

  A protective mat for plant growth having the above-described structure is laid on a planting site of a plant to be cultivated, such as turf or straw, and seedlings or seeds of the plant are planted on the mat at an appropriate planting interval. Thus, without weed removal by human labor, it is possible to suppress the germination and growth of weeds from the planting site where the mat is laid, and to promote the growth of only the planted plant.

  As a plant to be grown by the mat, a plant having a rhizome that crawls on the ground surface or a vine that grows like a vine and crawls on the ground surface is desirable, such as the turf or cocoon. In particular, in the case of a plant having a rhizome that crawls on the surface of the earth and a vine that grows in the shape of a vine and crawls the surface of the ground, the roots from the rhizome and the rhizome are planted through the mat while the growth of weeds is suppressed by the mat made of nonwoven fabric. Since it extends to the ground, the plant to be cultivated can grow over a wide range without causing any obstacle to the plant to be laid.

  According to the protective mat for growing plants of the present invention and the plant growing method using the mat described above in detail, the growth of weeds that grows around the plant to be grown is suppressed, and they are removed by human labor. It is suitable for growing plants that have rhizomes that grow on the surface of the earth and vines that grow on the surface of the ground and suppress the weed germination and growth of the surrounding weeds, while roots from the rhizomes and stems of the above plants. Can be led to the ground to grow the plant.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
1 and 2 show a plant-growing protective mat according to the present invention and a mode of plant growth using the mat.

A protective mat 1 for plant growth shown in both figures is obtained by drilling a plurality of planting holes 3 in a planting laying mat 2 formed of a nonwoven fabric with plant planting gaps. As the non-woven fabric, the germination and growth of weeds from the planting area on the lower surface where it is laid is suppressed, but the roots from the rhizomes that grow in the form of roots and vines that crawl the ground surface in the planted plants 5 6 has a high porosity with a roughness to pass, and more specifically, a polypropylene fiber having a thickness of 1 to 5 mm by bonding by a spunbond method is preferable.
Moreover, as this nonwoven fabric, the fabric weight within the range of 100 to 300 g / m ³ and the bulk density of 0.05 to 0.28 / cm ³ is excellent in the herbicidal effect, and at the same time, roots 6 from the stems. Suitable for passing through. Furthermore, it is desirable that this nonwoven fabric is deteriorated and decomposed by the action of ultraviolet rays over time on the order of several years to 10 years.

The mat 2 is not necessarily limited to a non-woven fabric, and is equivalent to the material having the function required in the present invention, that is, the mat 2 is shielded from sunlight by laying it on a planting site. In addition to suppressing the germination of weeds from its lower surface, even if it germinates, it suppresses it from growing on the mat 2 and being exposed to sunlight, while the planted plant 5 A material can be used that allows the roots 6 from the rhizomes to crawl the surface of the earth and the roots 6 from the rhizomes that grow like vines and crawl the ground surface.
Moreover, the said mat 2 can hold | maintain the fertilizer beforehand, focusing on the periphery of the planting hole 3 etc. to the whole surface.

  When growing the plant 5 such as turf or grass using the plant-growing protective mat 1, the planting-laying mat 2 is laid on the planting land, and a large number of appropriate intervals in the mat 2 are arranged. The planted plant 5 is grown through the planting hole 3 while planting seedlings or seeds of the plant on the planting site and suppressing germination and growth of weeds from the planting site on the lower surface where the mat 2 is laid. Thus, without removing the weeds around the plant by human labor, the germination and growth of weeds from the planting place where the mat 2 is laid are suppressed, and only the planted plant 5 is grown. Can be urged. The planting hole 3 can be opened by driving a pot for planting or the like without drilling a large number of planting holes 3 in the planting laying mat 2 in advance.

  The plant 5 grown by the mat 2 is preferably a plant having a rhizome that crawls on the ground surface, such as the turf or cocoon, and a pod that grows like a vine and crawls the ground surface. In particular, in a plant having a rhizome that crawls on the surface of the earth and a vine that grows like a vine and crawls the ground surface, while the growth of weeds is suppressed by the mat 2 made of non-woven fabric, the roots from the rhizome and the rhizome pass through the mat 2. Since it extends into the ground of the planting site, the laying of the mat 2 does not cause any obstacle to the plant to be cultivated and is effective in maintaining moisture on the surface and maintaining the temperature on the surface. It works.

It is a perspective explanatory view showing the state where a plant was planted by the present invention. It is a partial expanded sectional view which shows the structure of the protection mat for plant cultivation concerning this invention.
