Any summer resident knows that neglecting measures to protect your plot from insect pests is tantamount to death for the future harvest.
An expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist, and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told what “experienced” gardeners use instead of industrial insecticides.
To do this, you will need something that every farmer has in abundance – potato or tomato tops.
You can use both fresh stems and leaves, as well as dried greens.
For the first option you will need 600 g of vegetation, in the second case – 200 g.
Fill the specified amount of raw material with water - half a bucket is needed - and stir. After that, leave the product for 2 days to infuse.
After the specified time, you should filter the resulting gruel a little and add another half a bucket of water and a little laundry soap.
According to organic farming enthusiasts who have used this method year after year, it has never failed.
