The land plot for which for a long time "did not step by a person's leg," is a rather dull spectacle. And to be honest - his appearance results first shock, and only then sadness. The fact is that most often the earth unattended by all possible weeds, shrubs and trees. Moreover, even the cultural varieties of trees and plants turn into "Dichka" - there is no benefit from them, but the troubles will not be wrapped.
At the same time, if the territory at least had a fence, that is, there is no chance that there is no garbage on it. But without fence, land plots very quickly turn into unauthorized garbage dumps. If you have such an overgrown area and do not know where to start, read this article.
A good plan is already half
Many people starting working with the "wild" plot are enough for their heads and strive to do everything immediately. It is not right. Many are trying to see from work - hire the brigade of workers. A good solution if you have an excess amount of money in stock. The fact is that the cost of development of the overgrown plot today is pretty rather big. If you do not know how to develop a overgrown area , But still decided to act independently, our advice is before you master the virgin, make a plan of work.
To begin with, decide what the purpose of the site that you will develop. The fact is that if it is only needed to build a house, then the work plan is a little simplified, and if you decide to engage in agriculture, then work will noticeably add.
Carefully learn the territory you need to master. Is there a household or construction trash on the site. How many trees and shrubs are there, in what state they are and represent any value if you can leave something, or you need to remove everything. Is there a stump area, what are their size and appearance. Perhaps there are some buildings on site: house, well, toilet.
Make a plan - it will help to cope with panic and serve as a good help. The sequence of work performed looks approximately as follows.
- Clear territory.
- Remove the grass and thicket.
- Remove shrubs and trim.
- Remove unnecessary trees.
- Return stumps.
- Switch and break the soil.
- Carloomize.
- Align the plot.
- Make fertilizers.
- Give land to rest - put "under the pairs".
This plan must be adhered to if you are going to deal with the overgrown area of \u200b\u200bagriculture. If you purchased it for development, you can restrict ourselves to the first six points.
Clearing the territory
Since it is quite difficult to treat the overgrown plot to one person - it is practically unable to create a small brigade: family members, relatives, friends and acquaintances are perfect for these purposes. Especially when performing the first stages of work.
- Clean the territory of the site from the garbage that lies on the surface and to remove it there is no need to apply greater physical strength. It can be both household and construction trash, stones, sticks, etc.
- All the assembled garbage must be bored in one or two big heaps closer to that part of the site to which there is an entry of vehicles.
- Not worth the garbage - even if he is small and insignificant - to bury into the ground. You just add yourself work. It is especially not worth doing this under the trees - the garbage will interfere with the root system of those trees that you decide to leave.
Deleting grass and thickets
This stage of work is probably the most time consuming. After the entire visible garbage from the plot of pribran, you need to do weeds and thickets of grass. This work is best done by hand, despite the fact that the troubles will be much, but just once lead the land in order than to deal with the same problems every year. Some novice "farmers" prefer to work with the help of a motor-cultivator, but it has its own minus.
- Large weeds are pulled out, then, with the help of a bayonet shovel, the top layer of the Earth is removed - the dend (approximately five centimeters). Thus, you can remove the roots of weed perennial plants. Derne should not be thrown away - it can be put in layers in a separate place (roots up) and cover with a dark film that does not let the sun rays. A year later, this land will become the usual fertile soil - it can be used for its intended purpose.
- The motor-cultivator cuts off the turf along with the weeds and reappears all this in the soil. Thus, it is in vain work, as the technique grinds weeds and turf, provoking the growing grass and further, as the roots remain in the ground. In addition, various pest insects remain in Earth - the motor-cultivator is not getting rid of them.
- Non-overgrown plot of land is difficult to treat, without resorting to chemistry - herbicides can help here, for example, "Regronic", "Hurricane", Roundapup. Before using such toxic drugs, carefully examine the instructions and observe all precautions. Basically, manufacturers advise treatment into windless weather at the beginning of summer. Grass finally dies in two or three weeks - it will only be to gather it with rakes and take to the garbage or burn. It is worth noting that planting cultural plants in the territory treated with herbicides can be 1.5-2 months old!
Cleaning shrubs and dry
Here everything is very simple - "good" overgrown plot necessarily has a considerable number of shrubs. To remove shrubs, you need to remove most of the branches using a garden secaterator, leaving the central, and then dig root and targeting it. It is best to do it together - one works with a shovel, and the second pulls at the corner of the bush. You shouldn't simply cut a bush - after a while I will definitely have a new shoot.
As for dry (these are trees and shrubs, as well as tough last year's grass - all together it is a sharp spiny debris). All this can be freely cut down and hardened.
By the way, now you can first call the car or frost to export garbage - by this time it has already accumulated enough to load the car at least for one "walker" to the landfill. After that, you immediately notice how much work you have done.
Removal of unnecessary trees
There is no need to remove all trees that grow on the site. Some of them, of course, it's time to remove, but some can become a decent decoration of the territory. They can be left at least to be at least some shadow where you can relax from direct sunlight.
Deciding with the further fate of the trees on the site, you can start a roll of "unnecessary".
- Thin trees. You can get rid of them with the help of an ordinary ax.
- Thick trees. From them you can get rid of the saws - both ordinary and electrical (last, of course, is preferable, as time and strength saves).
- Tall trees. It is better to contact professionals here, since the roll of these trees can independently be dangerous.
- Stumps To make it easier to target the stumps, their height should be no more than one meter.
- Cutted trees. If you are going to build a house or a cottage at the site of the site, then the trees can be laid on the firewood: for a stove, for fireplace, for the manga. In order not to pay once again for garbage collection, trees can be offered to people who have furnace heating - they definitely do not refuse such a generous help.
- Leaves from trees. It is not necessary to throw away - they can be dried and burned, and then focusing with this ashes.
Possi hardened
On the territory of the site there may be old stumps or young, which remained after your trees haroring. Young stumps at first will put a young piggy, then there can settle mold, moss, mushrooms, various insects, so it's still better to get rid of the stumps.
From the stumps you can get rid of several ways.
- Manually. This is not only the cheapest way, but also the safest for the external environment. In order to emerge the stump, there is no need for some special equipment - the stump must first turn, and get the roots from under the ground and wrap. After that, the stump to dig as best and manually pull out from the ground. If the roots remained, they can also be handed to manually. It is better if several people will help to rock the stump.
- With the help of a tractor. The fastest way to get rid of the stumps. It is enough to turn a stump a little, throw the winch on it, the second end of which is fixed on the tractor and to "pull". This method is dear, but it is justified if you need to get rid of a large number of stumps.
- With the help of a crusher. This is the safest method, since it will not damage the landscape near the growing right trees and even worthwhile buildings. The minus of this method is a shallow treatment, which remains some of the roots in the ground.
- With the help of chemistry. Pretty simple and inexpensive method. It is necessary to drill an opening in the pneney of the hole (as deep as possible) and pour a wet salter into them. The prerequisite is the insulation of the stump so that the nitrate is not washed with rains. After about a year, the agriculture impresses the stump to the very roots. After that, the stump remains only to fall - it burns out all. At this place, plant plant not earlier than 12 months later. This method has one minus - it is very long and does not suit those who need to develop a plot as quickly as possible.
- With the help of mushrooms. The most exotic way is suitable for those stumps that are located in the shade. Mushrooms are known during their livelihoods, able to destroy wood. If you sow on a filling station, then in a short time, the stump will collapse, but for now it happens, for many years you will always have delicious and fresh widespread.
Pumping earth and soil loosening
Now, after not a single blade remains at the once overgrown area, it's time to step up the earth and proceed to the loosening of the soil.
- The land is dripped by a shovel: turn over the ground, smashes the cloves of the ground, fueled by organic fertilizers.
- Locking the ground with a pitchfork - thus, all the lumps are smoothed, the roots and garbage are selected, which was not previously noticed.
- If the soil is good, then it can be swapped only once to the depth of one bayonet shovel, and if not, you will have to work well and make bunk resistance.
Venus Chernozem
In the event that the soil turned out to be very "unimportant" - clay, saline or poor on the useful substances (its analysis today can be ordered in special geo-laboratories), and you planned to engage in agriculture, it will be best to start a high-quality site Chernozem.
Stone leveling
Switched area or a plot on which the chernozem was brought, it is necessary to dissolve. It is best to do it with robbles, so you can finally "stay" the land, removing stones and roots from it, which were previously not noticeable. In addition, with the help of this maneuver, it can be done so that the level of land on the plot was the same everywhere.
If you delivered the chernozem, it is necessary to ensure that it does not mix with the lower layer of the soil.
Remember that the fertile layer of the soil must be at least twenty centimeters.
Put fertilizer
After the land plot was leveled, it should be easily fertilized - for this, with the help of a gasket for lawns (for the absence of such a tool, it is easy to drown a little to the land of the earth), sprinkle with the fertilizer in the granules and again "mix the soil with a robber.
Fallow"
If you did everything right, then your site resembles a dough prepared for baking. Nevertheless, the Earth, like the test, must be resting before entering sowing. "Under the ferry" land must simultane at least two months. And ideally - year.
During this time, that you will not touch the earth, insects perform their function - enrich the soil, and small animals and birds - their own - will get rid of the ground from the most harmful insects.
In order for the site did not come to the launch, it is necessary to pour it from weed from time to time - they can be pulled by manually or using the chip. Do not forget to collect all the weeds and loosen the Earth!
On this, the development of the overgrown plot is completed. We hope that you all happen!
