Many gardeners and vegetable growers have absolutely no desire to spend large sums of money on purchasing Epin, Zircon and other fertilizers.

An expert of the online publication "Belnovosti", agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told what measures summer residents resort to in this case.

For example, weeds can be used as an effective fertilizer – just fill a barrel halfway with chopped weeds, and then fill the grass with water.

Leave the container in the sun to ferment and do not forget to stir the infusion periodically.

After 1-2 weeks, the resulting mass should be diluted in a ratio of 1 to 10 and used to water cultivated plants.

Another option is an infusion of onion peel. It is also easy to prepare - 4 handfuls of peel should be poured with 2 liters of boiling water, mixed and put in a dark place for a day.

After 24 hours, strain the resulting concentrate and dilute it with water in a ratio of 1 to 3.

This nutrient composition is suitable for fertilizing plants in a greenhouse and open ground, as well as for saturating seedlings with useful substances.
