Summer residents are wrong to consider this grass a weed: the benefits from it are many times greater than the harm

Inexperienced gardeners mercilessly pick this grass, not realizing that it can bring great benefits to the garden.

We are talking about celandine, which many people have growing right on their plot or next to it. Some gardeners specifically plant this plant in their garden.

They allow celandine to grow and then use it to good effect. It is sometimes so valuable that it is impossible to get such a return from other crops.

The benefits of celandine for the garden

The advantage of the plant is that it improves the soil. Experienced gardeners claim that no weed will grow near celandine.

In addition, the plant can function as a green manure. Onions, garlic, tulips, gladioli, and daffodils grow well after it.

You can make fertilizer from celandine. Summer residents have noticed that an infusion based on it not only nourishes plants, but also normalizes soil acidity.

For 200 liters of water, take 3-4 buckets of freshly chopped celandine, 1 kg of chicken manure and a packet of dry yeast.

The product is infused for 3 to 7 days, depending on the weather. The resulting liquid is diluted with water in a ratio of 1:10. It is applied under the root, but the plants are first watered with ordinary water.
