Many people know that potato peels are healthy, but they still underestimate their valuable properties.
Otherwise, it is difficult to explain why summer residents continue to throw away potato peelings instead of using them as valuable fertilizers.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, landscape designer and agronomist, talks about how useful this waste is.
What are the benefits of the peel worth mentioning?
Compound
The first thing to evaluate is the chemical composition of the potato peel. It contains a very wide range of nutrients.
The peel is a source of many minerals, including potassium and calcium, zinc, iron and manganese. It also contains acids that have a beneficial effect on the harvest.
Safety
Potato peelings do not have any contraindications as such: they are a high-quality natural product that will not harm your crops.
The peel does not contain nitrates or pesticides, so you should not worry about negative effects on your health.
Price
Even if you use the cheapest commercial fertilizers for your garden, they will still cost more than potato peels. So this will be a great way to save money.
