Since summer residents began using mineral and synthetic fertilizers in their gardens, everyone gradually began to forget about natural remedies.

An expert of the online publication Belnovosti, a scientist agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh decided to remind about such a fertilizer as a walker.

To prepare it, you will need dandelions, goutweed, nettles, wormwood, clover and other weeds growing on the site.

Transfer the mown grass into the barrel, filling the container three-quarters full with grass.

All that remains is to pour water heated in the sun over the weeds, leaving a little space for fermentation.

Don't forget to cover the container with a lid before leaving the fertilizer to sit.

The cooking process usually takes from 5 to 10 days, and the contents of the barrel should be stirred daily.

You can tell that the fertilizer is ready for use when the fermentation process stops - the foam settles and the liquid turns dark. Before watering, the concentrate should be diluted with water in a ratio of 1 to 10.
