US 2006/0032133 A1 · Protective elastic sleeve

Abstract

A method of isolating plant potting material from humans and animals, comprising: Having a pot with a bottom and a wall extending vertically upwards from the bottom, and an open top. The pot is containing soil and a plant which extends vertically upwards from the soil. A porous elastic sleeve having an opening on at least one end of the sleeve is stretchied over the wall of the pot. The sleeve is extending along the wall until a partial length of the sleeve, including said opening, extends above an upper edge of the pot. The above-the-upper-edge-extending sleeve is released over the top of the pot, so that a perimeter of opening recovers towards an unstretched perimeter of said opening, to thereby at least partially cover said open top of the pot and restricts access to the potting material.
