How to protect vegetable crops from disease
Herbs
Some plants are highly effective in preventing dangerous diseases. You need to pour a bucket of water over a bunch of valerian, wormwood and mint. The liquid should be hot.
We wait 24 hours and carry out the treatment of plants. The method is used about four times during the season.
Pine litter
If you have the opportunity to visit the forest, collect a couple of kilograms of plant material per bucket of hot water.
After four hours, you can begin processing the plants. This method can be used on a regular basis.
