To get a good harvest of vegetables, fruits and berries, summer residents resort to all sorts of tricks.

But new cultivation methods and technologies do not always benefit the garden.

One such controversial method is the use of fish to fertilize tomatoes.

If you haven't heard about such an exotic feed yet, we are in a hurry to share some information with you: according to some sources, it is suggested to use sprat or other fish.

It is recommended to throw the product into the holes before planting the seedlings there.

However, opponents of this method unanimously say that it will do more harm than good.

The first reason is that over time the fish begins to rot, and even a layer of soil is not able to neutralize this unpleasant smell.

The second reason why you should avoid using fish in your garden is that the stench attracts rats, mice and other rodents, which are known to not only damage your plants, but also spread infection throughout your garden.
