Sporysh, or the mountaineer bird's is used for forage of poultry, in recipes of traditional medicine and is even eaten. The dense carpet of green grass turns green since the beginning of summer and to the first snow. It can be pleasing to the eye on paths, lawn in front of the house and the playground. But when thickets begin to cover garden beds, it is necessary to think how to remove sporysh from giving.
Features of sporysh
Expanded young sporysh pleases with softness of the green grass. However if the mountaineer bird's regularly not to mow, its stalks will grow to 80 cm and will become quite rigid and unattractive. Flowers at sporysh small and hardly noticeable, with pink lobes, fruits are tiny trihedral nutlets which are so loved by domestic and wild birds.
The mountaineer bird's meets everywhere as this plant surprisingly unpretentious. The expanded carpet of sporysh cannot just be trodden, after bevelling he grows up again and again, indifferently. Roots of the mountaineer bird's extremely strong, branched, and the grass equally well feels on the dense, stamped soil and on friable, fertilized.
Mechanical ways of fight with sporyshy
- If on the seasonal dacha grows sporysh, it is recommended to dig over the soil pitchfork. It is important not to cut off, and completely to take out roots of weed plant from the earth, without having left even small parts. All plant debris need to be taken out from kitchen garden. For the winter it is important to dig up beds deeply to freeze the weed remains.
- As soon as on spring on the site there are first sprouts of sporysh, it is necessary to pull out them manually with roots and to remove far away from the site. It is impossible to delay with weeding and to wait when the plant drops the seeds.
- To slow down growth of plant, it is possible to cover the soil around cultural plantings with agrofibre or mulch from compost.
- Regular mechanical weeding of weeds mattock, subsurface cultivators on the seasonal dacha is necessary, it is better to harrow empty places. On paths and lawns the grass needs to be mown periodically. Repeated cutting of sporysh – at least time in 2 weeks - will allow to stop development of clumsy system and to exhaust it.
Chemical means of fight with sporyshy
Mechanical ways of destruction of sporysh at the dacha – work extremely laborious and labor-consuming. At very strong overgrowing of the site when near sporyshy on it various weeds grow and everything turns into weeds, it is necessary to resort to special chemical medicines.
Soil cultivation needs to be done by herbicides by means of the sprayer, when there is no wind and rain, after harvesting or at the beginning of season. It is obligatory to use at the same time personal protection equipment and to precisely adhere to instructions on packing of any given means.
Have well proved in fight with sporyshy such structures as "Tornado", "Treflan 480", "Zero", "Hurricane", Raundap, Lontrel, Vital UF. Means on the basis of glyphosate completely destroy weeds in only 1.5 weeks, destroying cages of plants up to tips of roots.
It is necessary to remember that during effect of medicine it is impossible to dig over the soil, to water and loosen. Sometimes there are enough several drops of herbicide that means of fight against weeds has got to roots, and the plant has died completely. Therefore it is required to use the chemical compositions carefully – they should not get on perennials and other cultivated landings.
