A summer resident who has collected yellowish and overgrown dill is unlikely to be pleased.

Such greens are excessively tough and do not have a strong taste.

Why was it not possible to grow fragrant and fluffy dill, although nutrients were added to the soil in advance and the plant was watered on time?

An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh spoke about a common mistake that leads to a drop in the quality of the dill harvest.

Contrary to popular belief, dill should not be sown in shaded areas.

Yes, the plant is unpretentious. But it still needs sunlight.

If the place where the greens grow is never exposed to sunlight, then you can’t even count on getting lush and aromatic dill, distinguished by a rich green color.

Earlier, summer residents were told how to increase strawberry yields using iodine.
