You may have seen how, throughout the summer season, your neighbor constantly sprinkles oatmeal on the beds where tomatoes grow.
There is no need to sound the alarm in advance - it is quite possible that in this way he is trying to feed the vegetable crop.
Yes, yes, oatmeal as a fertilizer for tomato bushes, according to many gardeners, gives excellent results.
This product is known to contain a large number of vitamins and microelements.
For example, magnesium, which is found in oatmeal, is needed by tomatoes for the development and strengthening of roots, phosphorus is useful during flowering, and calcium is responsible for the formation of strong and durable shoots.
If you use dry oatmeal, be sure to lightly rake the areas where the oatmeal was scattered to mix it with the soil, then water the plants.
But you can also prepare the feed in liquid form – the so-called oat milk.
To do this, you will need 3 tablespoons of crushed oatmeal (you can do this in a blender) and 1 liter of water, which should be poured over the cereal.
Leave the mixture to infuse for 2 hours, stirring occasionally, then strain the resulting mixture and dilute with water taken in the same amount.
This infusion should be used for watering every other day.
