The yield of plants depends greatly on how the gardener helps the soil and what fertilizers he applies.

Some gardeners even resort to artificial preparations that provide the garden with the necessary amount of microelements.

At the same time, the gardener spends a huge amount of time fighting weeds, which can be used as fertilizer.

Let us pay attention to the opinion of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

What can you feed your plants with?

Some gardeners do not know that a large amount of nitrogen is contained in weeds, namely nettles, quinoa and woodlice.

Once the need for nitrogen is gone for plants, they will definitely need phosphorus and potassium.

In this case, we use the roots of dandelion, goutweed and sorrel.

It is important to remember that we do not throw weeds into the garden bed in their pure form - we need to prepare special herbal infusions and water the soil with them.
