Natural organic substance for regenerating lignous vegetables

The substance results from the combination of an old cooled manure of which the fermentation is terminated, seeded with fresh animal dejections, particularly from sheep. This mixture is slightly wetted and held in an air-tight chamber, for example in thick plastic envelope, perfectly sealed, and at a mean temperature. Said substance, which is like a compost, is of a dark color without any particular smell, slightly pasty, releasing a blackish juice when it is sprinkled with water, after having deposited said substance on the soil at the foot of the vegetable to be treated.

The present invention relates to a natural substance resulting from the 
mixture of organic vegetable and animal matter and able to regenerate 
and/or balance and/or encourange the development of lignous vegetation in 
particular trees and bushes, but not exclusively. 
At present, to increase the development and the yield of the vegetation, 
the soil is fertilized where it grows by means of organic, chemical and 
other fertilizers, which have the effect of increasing the quantity of 
elements utilizable by the plants, either by returning to the ground that 
which is absorbed and the losses of mineral elements of the soil in which 
the plants nourish themselves, or by bringing it nutritive elements which 
it was lacking. 
Belgian Pat. No. BE-A-858 517 describes a method for production of 
pulverulent manure which is based on the fermentation of natural manures 
and consists of mixing and pulverizing so-called "hot" manures with 
so-called "cold" manures several times; the mixture is piled up in the 
open air and worked a certain number of times; the fermentation is sought 
with a large rise in temperature, up to 80.degree., 85.degree. C.; the 
manure obtained is a powder, grainy and dry, it is slightly acidic and 
particularly suitable for calcifugous plants which cannot live in 
calcareous soils; the degree of acidity is modified, the product enriched 
or balanced by the judicious addition of other elements, namely by organic 
matter of a strength of at least 1% of organic nitrogen; this deposit of 
nitrogenous organic matter is also effected to activate the desired 
fermentation which is accompanied by a large rise in temperature. 
All of these organic, chemical or other fertilizers, if they are improperly 
used and improperly measured can generate anarchic developments and if the 
vegetation is sick, they don't take care of it well indeed on the contrary 
they increase the unbalance, destabilize the defenses and are contrary to 
the desired goal. 
On the contrary, the substance object of the present invention has the 
effect of rendering normal in their characteristics and development all 
trees, bushes or vegetation of the same type, which are sick, of 
degeneration and underdevelopment, natural or induced.

This substance is characterized by the fact that it results from the 
combination of an old manure already having been heated, having terminated 
its fermentation and having been cooled, with an introduction of fresh 
animal dejections, namely of sheep "excrements" which cannot be considered 
as manure as they are dejections without litter. The deposit, by small 
quantities, of these fresh animal dejections in the cooled old manure 
permits its transformation without raising the temperature. This mixture 
is slightly moistened and immediately placed in an air tight chamber, away 
from the air, for example in thick plastic pouches, hermetically sealed. 
The mixture is never again worked. There is no incorporation of other 
foreign elements, the temperature of the mixture remains approximately 
medium, stable and ambient. The substance obtained occurs in the form of a 
compost, is of a brown color, without particular odor, slightly pasty and 
allowing a blackish juice to escape when it is watered after having been 
deposited on the soil at the foot of the plant to be treated. 
This substance advantageously can be used to care for large sick trees, 
conifer hedges, trees with decaying leaves, bushes and other lignous 
vegetation, during their cultivation, transplanting and planting. It has a 
medicinal vocation having the effect of rendering the vegetation normal in 
its characteristics and development. It can be used to encourage the 
development and the multiplication of cultures out of the soil and in 
terrains where they cannot develop naturally. 
In a time span of one to two days, very definite changes in the vegetation 
on the trees are perceived distinctly. For example, the needles of 
conifers, if they are closed, open and take on a delicate green, then next 
wax perfectly; the branches become harder, straighten and the growth tends 
to become normal. 
On thuyas and flat-needled conifers, an increase in the green coloration of 
the chlorophyl, a rapid growth of the ends of the branches of several 
centimeters, with a straightening of the tip can be seen; the needles 
become shiny, the branches harder and the growth is distributed better on 
the entire height of the tree with a thickening of the interior. 
On trees with decaying leaves, it is noted that the leaves are larger, more 
green, more shiny (if they should be); the growth is more regular, normal, 
without too much vegetation and the fructification even occurs without 
excess. 
In all cases and in general the application of this substance brings a 
definite improvement to all vegetation and lignous (to maturity) 
especially on the following points: 
regularization of the growth, 
resistance to dryness, 
resistance to diseases, 
increase in the stability of the tree, 
increase in the green color of the tree, 
reinforcement of the strength of the branches, 
Sometime after the application of the substance, it can be seen that the 
roots of the trees (basswood, magnolia, yew, conifer) and other bushes 
move towards it and implant themselves there. 
Finally, the use of the substance allows envisioning the planting of 
vegetation in places where they do not grow naturally.
