Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vegetational method by which weeds, especially, Solidago altissima L. having a great height can be prevented and turf grass, etc., can simply be grown. SOLUTION: A communication body 2 capable of passing air or water therethrough without passing roots or stems of plants 4 therethrough is placed on the ground surface 1 and soil 3 is then laid thereon at 15 cm depth to grow the plants 4 on the soil 3.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

[0001] The present invention relates to a vegetation method.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The ground that is not paved with concrete or asphalt, such as slopes, gardens, and other vacant lots,
Weeds grow by all means. Some of these weeds can be very tall (Acephalyspermum), unsightly, and difficult to walk through. Some also cause allergic diseases.

In order to prevent this, the weeds that have grown are cut off or are not grown at all.

[0004]

The mowing is very laborious, time consuming and labor intensive. A garden of private residence, is at most very in one person even 100~200m ^2. On the slopes of railway tracks, etc., it has a very large area and consumes a great deal of labor and time. Usually they have to reap several times a year. In addition, it takes time and effort to eradicate, but even if one is pulled out from the root, seeds will fly from somewhere and germinate there.

After all, mowing is performed every year. In order to prevent this, it is conceivable to spray a defoliant, but this causes environmental pollution.

[0006] In order to completely eliminate plants, there are methods such as casting concrete, but the appearance is impaired and human emotions are not affected. Even a mere vacant lot is unsightly in the garden or on the slope, especially when the soil is left untouched or the concrete is left untouched. In particular, recently, importance has been placed on human friendliness and peace of mind, so it is certain that some kind of plant is necessary.

[0007]

In view of the above situation, the present inventor has completed the method of the present invention as a result of intensive studies, and the feature of the method is that the plant A vegetation method comprising placing a communicating body through which air and water cannot pass, but laying a soil thereon at a depth of 1 to 5 cm, and growing plants on the soil.

[0008] The term "communicating body" as used herein means a substance that can pass through water, air and other nutrients, microorganisms, and the like, but does not allow the roots and stems of the plant to extend therethrough. For example,
Examples include continuous foaming of plastics and very fine three-dimensional nets. Further, in the experiment by the inventor, a very thin woven fabric or knitted fabric could be used even with a single thin sheet. Therefore, the structure is not particularly limited if the above object is achieved. Of course, capillary water (water retained by capillary action) exists because the roots and stems of the plant cannot pass through.

[0009] The thickness of the communicating body need not be any greater as long as it exhibits the effect that the roots and stems of the plant cannot extend therethrough. Of course, the thickness may be restricted by other requirements, such as to maintain the stability of the soil above it or to maintain a horizontal or constant angle. In addition, in order to follow the ups and downs of the ground, it is preferable to use a material that is relatively plastic and can be fixed at that position. In recent years, an arrangement in which ikebana is pierced into the arbor to retain and hydrate the flowers has been widely used, but such an arrangement may be used.

[0010] Furthermore, seeds of a desired plant may be fixed on the upper surface of the communicating body using an adhesive. These seeds may be present throughout the interconnector or scattered. The meaning of the scattering is to prevent the seeds from adhering to the entire sheet and becoming excessive, and to bring about a state where several seeds are planted at regular intervals in a field or the like. The adhesive force itself does not have to be very strong, and it is sufficient that the seeds and the like do not fall.

If the seeds are fixed, necessary plants such as lawns and other beautification plants can be easily vegetated.

Also, seeds can be fixed in various patterns by using a mold member, flowers and the like can be bloomed in a pattern, or a plurality of plants can be vegetated at predetermined locations to form a pattern. The mold member has a rear surface that has been subjected to a peeling treatment, and covers a predetermined portion of the communication body and exposes other portions. That is, it is usually like a release paper having a punched portion. Any material may be used as long as it can be attached to and detached from the communication body. Also, the shape of the punched or notched portion may be any shape, and this may be determined depending on how the seeds and the like are arranged. For example, when a flower clock is used, a stamping die may be manufactured in such a manner, and only the character portion may be made to have a specific flower or color. In the case where a stripe pattern is formed by changing the type of turf, it is preferable to use a plurality of tape-shaped mold members.

In the case of using flowers of three or more colors, such as the above-mentioned flower clock, a plurality of the mold members may be used.

[0014] Soil is laid on the communicating body with a thickness of 1 to 5 cm. This is the plant growing soil. Since this thickness is 1 to 5 cm, tall plants cannot grow. Of course, short weeds will grow, but these are weeds in agriculture and hinder the growth of desired plants, but from the viewpoint of the aesthetics of vacant lots and gardens, there are few problems. It does not become.

The thickness of the soil depends on the size of the plant to be grown. However, if it is 1 cm or less, it is difficult to maintain the soil itself, and if it is 5 cm or more, there may be a possibility that S. pallidum grows.

For example, if the yard of one's house is growing only with short, for example, clovers (which are themselves weeds), one would not be bothered much. At present, among many weeds, there are many people who say that it is only necessary to grow the above-mentioned goldenrod.

Seeds may be seeded on the soil to grow plants as usual, or may be left as they are to allow short weeds to grow. If the above-mentioned communicating body with seeds is used,
Very easy without the need for sowing.

A new point is that plants are grown on the soil above the interconnector, which is completely different from the type in which the roots of plants absorb nutrients from the soil under the net, as in the conventional weed prevention net. In the type where leaves are placed on the net and roots are placed under the net, it is troublesome to plant a growing plant, such as making a cut in that part when planting the plant, and it is not possible to grow from seeds. It is possible. This is because the net is so fine that stems and roots cannot penetrate so that weeds cannot grow.

In this respect, the method of the present invention can be grown from seeds without any trouble.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail based on embodiments of the invention shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a turf being grown by the method of the present invention. A communication body 2 is placed on the ground 1 and soil 3 is placed on the communication body 2c.
The grass 4 has been planted and bred where it was laid. In this example, a plastic sponge is used as the communication body. Although the grass 4 is rooted, it does not enter (do not enter) the communication body 2 but exists only in the upper soil portion. Tall plants cannot grow on such thin soils.

As a result, the garden and the like have greenery and tall weeds do not grow, and the appearance is excellent.

FIG. 2 is a plan view of the communicating body 2 on which seeds are placed on the upper surface. The seed is fixed only to the specific part 5 on the upper surface,
When the flower blooms, it will be a flowerbed.

[0023]

According to the present invention described in detail above, there are the following significant advantages. Tall weeds can be prevented from growing in gardens and open spaces,
Short plants can be grown. The construction is easy and even amateurs can easily do it. In particular, in the case of a type in which seeds are fixed on the upper surface, weed prevention and vegetation can be easily performed simultaneously simply by placing the seeds.
