During the winter holiday period, many gardeners do not plan to visit their country plot.
After all, you want to relax and celebrate the New Year with your family and friends.
However, even a person who is far from his dacha can do something important for the garden and vegetable garden.
We are talking about collecting one waste product, which is a good fertilizer and an excellent means of pest control.
An interesting “New Year” recommendation for summer residents was shared by the expert of the online publication “BelNovosti”, scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What should you collect during the New Year period?
Perhaps the main New Year's fruit is the tangerine.
During the holiday season, many people eat large quantities of these citrus fruits.
There is a lot of tangerine peel left. And it is not trash at all! The peel needs to be dried and saved: the resulting mass will come in handy in the countryside.
How to use tangerine peel?
The waste can simply be buried in the soil under the plant. The crust should be placed at a depth of five centimeters. As a result, the crop will have access to potassium, phosphorus and magnesium.
Finely ground tangerine peels are a powder that can be sprinkled into holes when planting potatoes and tomatoes.
An infusion prepared on the basis of tangerine peel and then passed through a filter surface is an excellent means for increasing the winter hardiness of crops. Watering should be done under the root. Each plant should receive a maximum of one liter of liquid.
In addition, this product, diluted with water twice, can be sprayed on plants vulnerable to pests. As a result, many insects will stop harming flora representatives.
Finely chopped tangerine peel can be safely thrown into the compost heap.
