How often have you thought about how to make the soil fertile without much effort, without pumping it with chemicals.
Green manure comes to the rescue. Such plants are designed to improve the condition of the soil in the shortest possible time. Green manure will become a worthy replacement for manure.
Benefits of green manure
The use of green manure plants as a tool for improving the structure and composition of the soil is one hundred percent justified.
Using green manure on a plot is an effective way to tidy up the soil and nourish it with useful substances.
Which green manure crops to choose
When using green manure, focus on the timing. Thus, winter rye and oats, which are not afraid of cold, can be sown from mid-March.
In April, take a closer look at oilseed radish, mustard, and barley, which are sown in the second ten days of the month.
Don't forget about watercress as a green manure - and friendly shoots will please the eye and won't keep you waiting.
When to sow green manure
Don't wait until mid-summer, start sowing green manure in early spring, when there is time before planting crops.
This method of fertilizing the soil will help prepare it for late spring sowing and give a start to the abundant development and growth of the main plants.
How to add green manure to the soil
Cut off the grown plants, let them wilt a little, and then you can bury them in the beds to mineralize the soil and fill it with balanced nutrition.
