Any gardener knows that the soil in the beds should be loose. Such soil cover easily absorbs moisture and receives enough oxygen.

The area becomes maximally suitable for growing garden crops.

However, many summer residents have a completely natural question: “How can I loosen the soil?”

It turns out that you don't need to constantly dig up the soil or add loosening agents. Sometimes it's enough to plant one green fertilizer in the garden.

Buckwheat can be called an ideal option. The presence of this plant on the site helps improve the consistency of the soil.

The cover becomes sufficiently light and loose.

It is also worth remembering that buckwheat is a source of useful microelements.

The soil where this green fertilizer grows gets a sufficient amount of potassium and phosphorus. And these are the very components that most garden crops need.
