Would you be surprised if we told you that you can protect cabbage from pests even without any “chemicals”?

To do this, you will have to prepare a special product that contains only natural ingredients.

Which ones exactly? Here's the recipe: 5 tablespoons of mustard powder, 1 tablespoon of red hot pepper, also ground into powder, and 2 tablespoons of soda ash.

First, pour mustard into a 1 liter jar, then fill it with hot water and leave to infuse for 3 days.

When the specified time is up, pour the mustard infusion into a bucket, pour in 8 liters of water, add pepper and soda and mix everything thoroughly.

Now you can use the product to treat cultivated plants. It lasts for about a month.

By the way, this composition can be used not only on cabbage beds, but throughout the entire garden.

It will help you fight almost all parasites, the only exception being spider mites that live on cucumbers and peppers.
