How to save a plant

It is necessary to water the garden crop with a solution that contains enough nitrogen.

To create such a mixture, it is worth using ammonia.

To convert this product into a nitrogen fertilizer, it must be added to a large amount of water.

You should take a standard bucket, fill it with water and pour in some ammonia (3 tbsp.).

The result will be a solution that you need to water the vulnerable plant under the root. It is advisable to carry out the procedure in the evening hours.

If everything is done correctly and no mistakes are made, the onion feathers will return to their rich green color.
