More Fertilizer Doesn't Mean Better: Why Too Much Fertilizer Harms Your Garden
Some summer residents believe that there is no such thing as too much fertilizer, so they scatter fertilizers and manure in large quantities.
More experienced gardeners understand that in this case, more does not mean better.
Avoid adding too much fertilizer to the soil as this can negatively impact crop yields.
Let us pay attention to the opinion of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
Why You Shouldn't Apply Too Much Fertilizer
It is important to understand that plants in the area are not able to absorb an infinite amount of minerals.
Excess useful components will remain in the soil, which will gradually become oversaturated with them.
In this case, the soil has a chance of becoming heavily saline, which will negatively affect plant growth and crop yields.
It is also important to use organic fertilizers, not mineral ones. But if you use a store-bought option, pay attention to the manufacturer's recommendations.
