Method for cultivation of turf

Abstract

A method of cultivating turf involving use of a first base of close mesh material such as hessian, cotton or synthetic material or a cotton/synthetic mix molded plastics material or knitted, woven or welded plastics such as polyolefin monofilament. Beneath the first base is disposed a second material layer, the material of this second layer being such as to allow roots to grow therethrough and, at harvest, to be withdrawn therethrough. Materials suitable for the second layer include soft textured continuouss materials such as spun polyester or knitted or woven plastics materials. Beneath the second material layer is a sand or sand/aggregate bed which is supported on a perforated plastics sheet. Seeds mixed in a pulp material are disposed on the first base, watered, grown to harvest, and the turf removed with the first base, the second material remaining for re-use.
