How can the lawn save water
Moisture factors are the key factors affecting the survival, growth and appearance quality of lawns in arid, semi-arid and sub-humid arid regions. Maintaining good growth of turf in these areas is essential for irrigation supplementation. But people can achieve lawn water saving through various ways. There are mainly three ways to save water in the lawn: water saving for engineering, water saving for technology, and water saving for plants. The water saving of the project mainly includes the rational design and installation of irrigation, sprinkler and other devices to reduce the inefficient waste of irrigation water during transportation and spraying. Rationally construct or modify the bed to reduce the deep leakage and excessive evaporation of irrigation water. Strictly control the design of sprinkler intensity to avoid surface water or runoff. The treated wastewater or surface water is selected as the water source. Technology Saving Water 1. A reasonable irrigation system determines the optimum irrigation volume and, in a specific area, irrigates according to the minimum water requirement of the lawn. Monitor turf soil, atmospheric or turfgrass moisture status and timely irrigation. 2. Maintenance Management Measures (1) Raise the lawnmower blade by 1.3 to 2.5 cm. Higher turfgrass has a deeper root system. Because the soil is dried down from the surface, the root system is more easily absorbed into the water. Increased stubble retention will increase leaf area and increase transpiration, but the deeper roots make up for the disadvantages of increased leaf area, and larger leaves cover the soil surface, reduce soil evaporation, and protect rhizomes from high temperature damage. (2) Decrease the number of cuts, and the moisture loss at the wound after cutting is significant. The more times you cut the grass, the more times the wound appears. Keep the lawnmower blade sharp. The blunt blade cuts the grass, the wound is rough and the healing time is longer. (3) During the drought period, nitrogen fertilizer should be reduced. High rates of nitrogen fertilizer make the grass grow faster, require more water, leaves are green, juicy and more wilting. Potassium-rich fertilizers should be used to increase the drought resistance of grasses. (4) Blight grass layer is too thick and can be cut by vertical cutting machine. The thicker weed layer shallows the grass roots and delays the rate of water seepage, reducing the water use efficiency of the lawn. (5) Ventilate the soil with a core soil punch to increase permeability and improve stem and root growth. (6) Using herbicides sparingly, some herbicides will cause some damage to the roots of lawn plants. (7) When building a new lawn, apply organic matter and soil-improving substances to increase the water holding capacity of the soil. (8) Pay attention to the weather forecast before irrigation and if it will rain. Use rain gauges to accurately measure rainfall. When rainfall is sufficient, delay or reduce irrigation. (9) Appropriate application of humectant to increase the moisture content of turf soil water and promote root water absorption. Plants are water-saving and use grass species and varieties that have low water consumption or drought tolerance. Use of turfgrass with low water consumption can directly reduce irrigation volume. Drought-resistant grass species will reduce the frequency of irrigation. The results of scientific measurements show that there are great differences in water consumption and drought tolerance between different turfgrass species and different varieties, and there is great potential for selecting appropriate turfgrass water-saving. In addition, the application of molecular biology technology has greatly promoted the cultivation of drought-resistant turfgrass, opening up new prospects for water-saving lawns. The three ways of lawn water saving are equally important in turf establishment and conservation management. Comprehensive utilization will increase the efficiency of lawn water conservation. In addition, it is necessary to consider water conservation from a wide range of landscape construction, consider the water demand of landscape plants in a certain area as a whole, and the amount of water that the area can provide naturally and artificially. Water conservation should be based on this balance between supply and demand. . Reducing the use of water-reducing landscape plants alone to save water from drought-tolerant or water-consuming plants will often reduce the function of plants in the urban landscape, and sometimes lead to increased water consumption. For example, scientific research results show that the lawn can reduce the temperature of its surrounding environment through transpiration, and can also effectively weaken long-wave radiation of strong sunlight on the ground. Shrubs and undergrowth can effectively reduce the transpiration on the back of shrubs and arbor leaves. The stomata that lose moisture in these plants are mainly distributed on the back of leaves, which is very important to reduce the water consumption of trees. It can be seen that the communities formed by various plants in urban plant landscapes are related and interact with each other. People design and build urban landscapes to improve the living environment of the urban population. Water conservation should take into account the functions of the urban landscape.
