Spoiled and rotten apples that are picked from the trees and left on the ground in the garden should be removed, but there is no need to rush to throw them away.

Naturally, in most cases, "fallen fruit" is not suitable for consumption, but this does not mean that it cannot be used. After all, a good owner will not let anything go to waste on his plot.

It should be taken into account that such fruits also have benefits even in this condition.

The fact is that such fruits produce ethylene.

This substance helps other vegetables and fruits ripen faster.

Therefore, many summer residents simply place buckets of “fallen fruit” in greenhouses with tomatoes or lay them out next to fruit bushes in order to harvest the crop faster.

In this case, you can put 3-4 rotten fruits under each plant. In a couple of weeks, they will begin to actively release useful gas to speed up ripening.
