The chances of getting a rich harvest of garden crops are not very high if the soil is too hard.
How to solve the problem? At first glance, the answer is obvious: you need to loosen the soil cover.
But what should a summer resident do who cannot afford difficult and tedious work associated with long-term use of a shovel and other tools?
In this case, it is necessary to plant green manure, which not only saturates the soil with useful substances and microelements, but also improves the soil structure.
What plants are we talking about?
According to the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , the following representatives of flora have a positive effect on the consistency of the soil:
- sweet clover;
- wheat;
- rye.
The above-mentioned plants are good because they have a powerful root system.
The roots of these green manures penetrate into the soil to a sufficient depth.
As a result, the soil cover is actually loosened. Even clay soil turns into "fluff".
And it is important to note that due to sweet clover, wheat and rye, the soil not only acquires a more suitable structure, but also becomes much more fertile.
Earlier, summer residents were told what to sow for seedlings in February.
