Many supporters of eco-farming prefer natural fertilizers when growing plants.

We are in a hurry to share with you the recipe for one of them - according to summer residents who have already tried this type of fertilizer, it can replace any mineral water.

To do this, you will need 2 simple products – honey and eggshells.

By combining them together, you can saturate the seedlings with glucose and calcium. And now – the details.

To begin, fill a suitable container with 0.5 liters of warm water and add 1 teaspoon of natural honey (not sugar-based syrup).

After the contents of the container have been mixed, pour in the shells of three fresh eggs.

The shells, of course, should be crushed in advance, after which the future nutrient solution will have to be left for at least 5 hours (or better yet, for 1-2 days) “to infuse.”

After this time, the liquid must be filtered and another 2 liters of water added. The fertilizer is used to water the seedlings on damp soil.

It is allowed to "treat" seedlings with such feeding 3 times. The interval between feedings should be 3-4 weeks.
