Every gardener and vegetable grower has to fight pests and diseases in their lifetime.
In an effort to find not only effective but also environmentally friendly means of protection, many summer residents turn to natural resources, one of which is garlic peel.
What is the value of garlic peels?
This natural material boasts powerful antibacterial and fungicidal properties.
Therefore, if you do not get rid of the husks, but collect and save them for future use, you can create an effective plant protection product without additional costs.
How to make garlic infusion
Fill a bucket with garlic peels and add water until the contents are completely covered. Typically, 1 part peel to 10 parts water.
Leave the container in the dark at room temperature for a week. After about 7 days, you will see signs of fermentation: bubbles on the surface and an intense smell.
At this stage, the infusion should be stirred and left to settle until the bubbles stop forming. This period can last from several hours to a day.
That’s it, actually – the garlic peel solution is ready to protect your beds from carrot moth, fungal diseases and other troubles.
