Milk is a source of a huge amount of substances and microelements useful for plants.

Therefore, it is not surprising that many summer residents try to find a use for the drink in their country house.

But the product can really be turned into fertilizer. To do this, it is enough to use certain additives.

There are at least two ways to turn milk into a good feed supplement.

The first way

Let's start with a simpler version that involves adding just one extra ingredient.

We are talking about iodine. Ten drops per bucket of milk (diluted with water 10 times) will be quite enough for the mixture to have a normal nutritional effect.

Drops of the resulting liquid should be poured onto the plant that needs feeding.

As a result, the garden crop will receive not only useful substances, but also protection from diseases.

The second way

Now let's move on to milk fertilizer, which should be added to the soil.

This mixture will be much more difficult to prepare.

You need to take a barrel and pour a liter of white drink into it. In the same container you need to add some unburned wood residue, half a bucket of manure, half as much compost mass and three liters of fermented liquid (previously granulated sugar and yeast should have been added to it).

The resulting mass must be filled with water until the barrel is completely filled.

After 7 days, you will have a luxurious fertilizer ready, which will significantly increase the fertility of the soil.
