How to use tea leaves in the garden: not all gardeners know
Anyone can collect enough tea leaves if they want, as the drink enjoys a certain degree of popularity.
You can also prepare raw materials from tea bags.
However, in order for the tea to benefit the plot, its composition should be simple - no flavorings or other chemical additives should be indicated. Also, tea should not be brewed with sugar, notes the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
How can the tea leaves be used?
The easiest way to make an excellent fertilizer is on the basis of tea, as the product has a rich composition. For this reason, experienced gardeners send tea leaves to the compost pit. Thanks to this, the fertilizer will become even better quality.
You can also use the product in a different way. To do this, dry the raw material in the sun and add it to the hole when planting various crops. This helps young plants gain strength due to high-quality feeding.
Other summer residents combine the tea with ash and add it directly to the soil, leaving the product in the upper soil layer. The advantage of the fertilizer is that it "works" for a fairly long period of time.
