Many people are accustomed to believing that natural fertilizers will always be the best option and will be able to provide a high-quality harvest.
However, it is worth understanding that any remedy has its strengths and weaknesses.
The litter also has its own negative characteristics, which inexperienced summer residents may not even know about, explains the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What disadvantages should you be aware of?
Nitrates
Many people "scold" store-bought products because of their nitrate content, but not everyone realizes that home-grown vegetables can also be subject to the same deficiency.
To achieve this, it is enough to simply use chicken manure too actively as fertilizer.
Potassium
This fertilizer does not contain potassium. This is critical when it comes to fertilizing potatoes, for example. Therefore, when using manure, it is important to immediately add a source of potassium for the correct development of the crop.
Limitations of application
It is important to remember that nitrogen sources are applied only during the period of green mass growth. After that, this fertilizer may be harmful to plants.
