Ukunakekelwa kotshani kufaka phakathi izakhi ezimbalwa ezibalulekile - ukuhlanganisa, ukunisela, ukondla, ukugunda, ukukhipha i-aeration, kepha ukulungiswa kwemabula kufanele kube ngenye yezindawo zokuqala kulolu hlu. Izimvula ezinde, isomiso, ukugquma komoya nezinye izinto ezingezinhle zemvelo zithola utshani obuluhlaza bokuqina bese kuthi ngaso sonke isikhathi bangagcini isimo sazo sisesimweni esihle. Uma ukwephulwa kwaso kwephulwa, izakhi zomzimba eziphuma emhlabathini zivuthwa ngokushesha, uhlelo lwezimpande zezitshalo luya buthaka, kanti ikhava yotshani ilahlekelwa izimfanelo zalo zokuhlobisa. I-Mulching ngeke ivumele ushintsho olubi ekubukekeni kwotshani, njengoba ikwazi:
- Ukulawula ukujikeleza kwamanzi enhlabathini kanye nokwenza ngcono ukushintshana komoya;
- Ngezinsuku ezishisayo zasehlobo, nciphisa ukuhwamuka komswakama kusuka enhlabathini;
- Ukwanda okwandisiwe kwesendlalelo se-sod ukwenza okuhlala isikhathi eside nokuqina;
- Ukuthonya ukukhula okushesha kwamahlumela amancane;
- Gcina umhlobiso womhlaba wotshani bese ulilinganisa;
- Izikhathi eziningi lenyusa izinga layo lokungamelana nezinguquko zemvelo ezahlukahlukene kanye nama-vagaries wesimo sezulu.
Ungalifaka kanjani utshani nothile futhi kanjani
Imvamisa, ukugoqa utshani kwenziwa ngezindlela ezimbili eziphambili. Okulula ukushiya utshani obugayiwe nobusakazeke kahle phezu kwengca eluhlaza. Ungqimba oluncane lo mulch olunotshani obunjalo olucishe lufane nalolu kufanele limboze yonke indawo yotshani. Kubaluleke kakhulu ukuthi utshani obunjiwe busikwe ngokucophelela, ngaphandle kwezinsalela zeziqu ezinkulu namaqabunga. Uma ukugunda kotshani kwenziwa njalo, khona-ke ngokugoba okunjalo okuhlanganisa izimbali ngeke kube nezinkinga.
Ungenzi ungqimba lwe-mulch lube mnene futhi lube mnene. Ngokungezelelwa okuphindaphindiwe kotshani obudonswe etshanini phakathi nenkathi, i-mulch izoba semoyeni futhi ingaba ngumthelela wokutheleleka kanye nokusakazeka kwezifo zokukhunta. Lokhu kuzolekelelwa yimvula ende enzima, okuzoholela ekuboshweni kwesembozo sotshani nokutheleleka ngamagciwane kanye nesikhunta zezitshalo ezincane. Ukuvimbela lokhu, kunconywa ukuthola ungqimba lwe-mulch olunqwabelene cishe amahlandla amathathu kuya kwamane ngonyaka, emva kwalokho kuyadingeka ukuhlanganisa utshani ngeleather yensimbi. Uma lokhu kungenziwa, amabala we-bald azoqala ukuvela, angaqedwa kuphela ngokufaka esikhundleni se-turf yakudala entsha.
Indlela yesibili yoku-mulching yenziwa ekwindla, lapho ukucheba kokugcina kwesizini kuqediwe. Ukufakwa mulching okunjalo kuyadingeka ekwakheni ungqimba lomhlabathi ogcwele futhi onempilo, kanye nokulungiselela utshani besikhathi sobusika.
Ukwakheka kwe-mulch
- I-Peat ebunjiwe kahle noma umquba obolile (ungasebenzisa izingcezu zokhuni oluqinile noma amagxolo esihlahla asikwa kahle) - ingxenye eyodwa;
- Isihlabathi somfula iCoarse - ingxenye yengxenye eyodwa (enhlabathini enesihlabathi) noma izingxenye ezimbili (esakhiweni sobumba);
- Umhlaba wensimu uyingxenye eyodwa.
Ikhilogremu eyodwa nengxenye yomxube we-mulching olungiselelwe kunconywa ukuthi usetshenziswe kumitha ngayinye yesikwele yendawo yotshani.
Izici ze-autumn mulching
Ukulungiselela ingxube ephezulu ye-mulching, kubalulekile ukulungiselela ngokucophelela isakhi ngasinye ngaphambi kokuxuba. Zonke izinto ezinconyiwe kuqala zihlanzwe futhi zivinjwe kahle, bese zishiyelwa isikhathi esithile ukuze zome, futhi yilapho kuphela lapho zonke izingxenye zingaqala ukuhlanganiswa ngokulingana okudingekayo.
Ingxube kumele ifakwe ungqimba oluncane (hhayi ngaphezu kwama-0.5 cm) ukuze utshani obusegcekeni buhlale bungaphezulu kwezinga le-mulching. Kubalulekile ukuthi ugcwalise okukhona kuleyo ndawo, kepha awudingi ukudala amashubhu.
Ngesikhathi sokulwelwa ekwindla, kunconywa ukukhipha i-lawn, kanye nokufaka umanyolo. Umanyolo (kakhulu) ungangezelelwa kungxube ye-mulch, futhi kuyalulekwa ukufaka ingxube endaweni (ikakhulukazi ngomhlabathi wobumba) ngemuva kokulungiselela kwayo kokuqala. Izinsalela zezitshalo zidinga ukususwa nge-rake, futhi ngosizo lwe-pitchforks yengadi, inhlabathi ihlatshwa kuze kufike ekujuleni okungaba ngu-10-15 cm kuyo yonke indawo enotshani.
I-Autumn mulching izolungisa utshani ngokuphelele entwasahlobo futhi izodinga isikhathi esincane nomzamo.
