Gardeners who do not like using chemical fertilizers often look at simpler and more natural fertilizers.

Baker's yeast for feeding cultivated plants is one such option.

Many people note that fertilizing with yeast promotes active plant growth. However, it is important to remember that this method is not universal and such fertilization can harm plants.

What do yeasts give to plants?

When using yeast as a natural fertilizer, a large amount of nitrogen is formed in the soil, which promotes rapid growth and development of crops.

The popular fertilizer is valued for its safety and practicality in use.

When present in the soil, yeast helps convert phosphorus and nitrogen into a form accessible to plants.

However, not all plants need yeast fertilizer.

What plants should not be fertilized with yeast

Peas, beans, garlic, onions are plants for which yeast feeding is not recommended.

Fertilizing with yeast will only make the situation worse: the crops will not be stored well, and the taste will be an unpleasant surprise.

If you want to grow a strong and healthy crop on your plot, then feed the crops wisely, choose the appropriate fertilizers for each plant.
