I cook this fertilizer is very simple - as it was preparing my mother, and before that - my grandmother. Infusion of widespread burning weed - nettle is an excellent plant food.

Preferring natural fertilizer for your garden, I have long been using this drug for many vegetable crops. For fertilizing use young nettles, which have not yet formed the seeds. The nettle contains many minerals needed for the growth and development of many vegetables.

The use of nettle, proven by experience

Your site I developed gradually, year by year, increasing the area for growing plants. In the place where there were thickets of weeds, plants grow strong and not subject to any diseases. The soil, where there were nettles, becomes loose and rich in humus. In addition, the plant is very useful like earthworms that improve soil structure.

Tincture, rich in minerals

To prepare the dressing, I pick nettles 20-30 cm tall.

  • The roots are cut off and the stems and leaves are crushed and tightly folds into a canister or bucket, filling three-quarters.
  • Green mass pour warm water to the top.
  • Instead of using the lid tight plastic bag which is tied up with rope to a container (not to be where the wind blows).
  • Capacity leave in the sun. Each day, the contents were stirred with a wooden stick.

12-14 days after the infusion becomes a nondescript gray-green color. The smell of the batter and not a pleasant one. Nettles I do not strain, wring out and to get richer concentrate.

For spraying plants (foliar application), 1 liter of concentrate razvozhu in 10 liters of water for watering and 5 liters.

Top dressing is free from nettle, useful and effective fertilizer comprising potassium, calcium, magnesium, manganese, iron, copper, iodine, sodium, - i.e. all substances which help to increase the resistance of plants to diseases, distilled many pests, and most importantly, increase the number of ovaries, accelerate ripening and improve the taste fruit. Tomatoes from such power grow big and sweet taste.

Frequency of feedings

Once a month, this green fertilizer water the tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage, peppers and strawberries. For peas, beans, onions and garlic, this food is not suitable! I am making feeding to 1 liter per every bush on wet soil after rain or watering ordinary water. Spraying spend a week in the morning. Power enters the plant tissue from which they have strong roots and stems.

In the dry summer tops nettle mulch beds. This cover not only retains moisture in the soil, but also struggling with aphids. To increase the efficiency of power supply in the present or in the mulch add sifted a handful of ashes.

Perhaps, for some, this method will not be the discovery of the century, so do not judge strictly, and for someone - on the contrary will be good news, the latest versions. I know one thing - the best natural fertilizer for the big crop, probably does not exist. In my opinion, instead of chemistry is better to make maximum use of the opportunities that gives us Mother Nature. And what do you say? I am waiting for your opinions in the comments.)
