The feather will “rise”, and the bulb will be the size of a plum: it is better not to feed onions with this fertilizer

Summer residents are sure that any fertilizer is good for plants, so they add almost everything.

Some gardeners do not monitor the dosage, believing that the more, the better. As a result, they do not get the result they expected to see.

Decoctions and infusions of weeds are popular in the dacha environment. The raw materials are at hand throughout the season, and it is very easy to prepare the fertilizer.

That is why liquid green fertilizer is prepared by almost every third gardener. There is benefit from the infusion, but not for all plants.

For example, it is better not to feed onions and garlic with this fertilizer. It contains nitrogen, which stimulates the development of leaf mass. The underground part receives fewer nutrients.

The same effect will be achieved when feeding legumes with green manure. There will be a lot of leaves and pods, but fewer grains.
