Herbs
To prepare an infusion that will saturate the soil with potassium, you will need nettle and dandelion.
The plant stems are chopped and placed in a container, but not tamped to the very top. The greens are filled with water so that it completely covers the mass, and let stand for 14 days.
The prepared herbal infusion is diluted with water 1:10 and the plants are watered once every 10 days.
Ash
Seedlings can be fed with wood ash, which will enrich the soil with useful potassium.
For 1 liter of water take 1 teaspoon of ash and mix thoroughly. After 24 hours the solution can be used. But before use do not forget to strain it. Apply once a month.
