Florists never tire of searching for new tools that would help them in their difficult task – growing plants.
And, most importantly, they find them – how do you like the news that you can use the most common lentils as flower food?
According to a number of plant growers, such fertilizer promotes rapid growth and abundant flowering of “green pets”.
And this may indeed be the case, since lentils are legumes, and they are known to saturate the soil with nitrogen.
He, in turn, is responsible for active growth and accumulation of green mass.
In addition, lentils contain phosphorus and potassium – all of which are necessary for plants to remain healthy and beautiful.
Preparing lentil fertilizer does not require any special skills.
You should pour 4 tablespoons of red or brown lentils into a suitable container and fill it with a liter of water.
Next, the mixture should be left to infuse for at least 4 hours.
If green lentils were used, the steeping time will have to be increased to 8-12 hours.
As a result, the lentils will release their nutritional properties into the water, which you can use for irrigation.
The main thing is not to forget to strain the fertilizer before you pour it into the watering can.
