Calcium silicate-based cements and concretes are disclosed, which result in concrete compositions that have an increased durability. A cement product includes a plurality of particles of a carbonatable calcium silicate cement and a hydrophobic organic acid, or a salt thereof, or a silane, or a polysiloxane.

The present invention primarily relates to the use of a mixture capable of biocementation as a means of preventing or reducing plant growth, preferably weed growth. The invention also relates to a method for preventing or reducing plant growth, preferably weed growth, on/in a substrate.
