Gardeners always know how to get the most out of the resources they have at hand.
Using stale bread as a natural and healthy fertilizer for plants is not without meaning and has considerable benefits.
Benefits of bread
Stale bread is usually thrown away, but in fact it can be used as a healthy additive for vegetables, berries and flowers.
This is due to the fact that bread contains a large amount of nutrients, including carbohydrates, proteins, B vitamins, and minerals.
Preparation of fertilizer
To prepare fertilizer from stale bread, you don't have to be very diligent. This method is incredibly simple and is appreciated by many gardeners and vegetable growers.
The essence of the accessible method is to fill 1/3 of a jar or bucket with bread crusts, pour boiling water over them and let it steep to obtain a nutritious decoction.
Using bread dressing
The finished infusion should be filtered, diluted with water 1:1 and you can water the plants.
After a week, the stems and leaves of the plants will become stronger and add color.
Feeding with stale bread will make the plants strong, and in the future they will produce a more abundant and tasty harvest.
