Experienced gardeners have long known how to determine whether the plants they grow on their plot suffer from a lack of any microelements.
Summer residents do this by taking just one look at the leaves of a particular crop.
So, if you notice that the upper leaves have green veins, and yellow ones between them, and the leaves are curled or wrinkled, this means that iron chlorosis has come to visit you.
Although this phenomenon is not widespread, it would not hurt anyone to know about measures to combat iron chlorosis.
Fortunately, treating this affliction is not difficult.
All that is required from a farmer who has discovered that his crops are suffering from an iron deficiency is to spray the beds with preparations that contain this very element.
These include “Iron Chelate”, “Ferovit”, “Micro-Fe” and others.
Finally, let us remind you: plants that are forced to “exist” in poor soils or under unfavorable weather conditions are most susceptible to iron chlorosis, as a result of which the process of photosynthesis slows down, and the crop is unable to absorb the necessary elements.
