Walnuts are considered to be the most delicious and healthy options, which is why many people eat them.
However, an experienced gardener will never throw away valuable shells.
How can it be used on the site with maximum benefit?
Effective mulch
Walnut shells easily fulfill the functions of high-quality mulch - they do not allow moisture to evaporate quickly, reducing the amount of watering, and do not give a single chance to weeds, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", a landscape designer and agronomist.
Also, the sharp shell will not allow slugs to get to the plants, which is its undeniable advantage.
Quality ash
Plants are difficult to feed directly with the shell, so first it must be burned to ash. After that, the component can be successfully used instead of an effective fertilizer.
But it is easier to feed shrubs and trees: just bury the pre-prepared shells in the tree trunk circle.
Drainage layer
If you do not have the necessary components for preparing drainage, you should pay attention to the shell. This option is considered one of the most worthy and high-quality.
