Natural nutritious fertilizer for plants can be prepared with your own hands from weeds that can always be found in the garden.
Weed tops contain useful microelements, and nettle is considered the best fertilizer for garden crops.
Benefits of nettle fertilizer
Natural fertilizer will appeal to almost all plants. For its preparation, vegetative parts are used - leaves and stems. It is not recommended to use faded shoots for feeding, otherwise the seeds that have already ripened will certainly fall into the soil and the weed will quickly spread across the site.
Nettle is able to absorb nutrients from the soil and store them in tissues. Potassium, which is contained in the infusion, will help the fruits to ripen faster and stimulate flowering.
Other elements that take part in the process of photosynthesis and cellular metabolism will also be important.
To prepare a nettle infusion, you will need to take water and weeds. The useful substances will disintegrate during the fermentation process into those available to plants, which will quickly absorb them.
Nettle solution will be very useful for the garden and vegetable garden, it will increase soil fertility and accelerate plant growth.
How to prepare a solution for irrigation
Pick some nettles, chop them finely, put them in a bucket, fill with warm water, add a small packet of dry yeast and let it sit in a warm place.
In a week the nutrient solution will be ready. For watering, dilute the solution with clean water 1 to 10 and water all your plants. But do not forget to add wood ash afterwards.
This type of feeding will be the best for harvesting strawberries, peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes.
