You can find many useful products in a gardening store.
Among them, according to the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , there is an affordable product that should be included in the composition of the soil for seedlings.
As a result of its use, all kinds of soil mosquitoes and other flies will disappear.
Moreover, you will forget that the seedlings once suffered from the so-called black leg.
Perhaps someone has already guessed – we are talking about garden diatomite.
For 5 liters of any soil you will need 1 glass of the preparation. Here is the scheme that experienced gardeners adhere to - add 250 ml of diatomite and 2 liters of vermiculite to 5 liters of ready-made soil mixture.
Once the mixture has been stirred, it can be used to transplant seedlings.
The same mixture can be used for sowing seeds. Before putting the seeds into the soil, it is necessary to water it with water at a temperature of 60 degrees until the soil swells.
Squeeze the soil in your fist. If it starts to release liquid, you have achieved the required condition. Thanks to this moisture, the seeds will swell quickly and the shoots will appear faster.
