The gardener overfed the plant with fertilizers: what to do in this situation - a simple technique

08.02.2024 14:55

Every garden and vegetable crop needs nutrients.

If you rarely feed the plants, the harvest is unlikely to be abundant.

Over-fertilization is also a serious mistake.

An “overfed” representative of flora may begin to build up green mass, or even die altogether.

However, the negative effect can be prevented. But you need to act immediately after it becomes clear that the crop is overfed with fertilizers.

What should a summer resident do?

An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh assures: saving an "overfed" plant is a completely achievable goal.

It is necessary to use a technique such as temporarily increasing the frequency of watering and the volume of water used.

A gardener who previously made a mistake when calculating the dose of fertilizers applied should water the plant generously for some time.

This will provide a good chance of reducing the concentration of nutrients and saving the crop.

Earlier, summer residents were told why they were unable to grow strong cabbage seedlings.
