Beetroot is a fairly popular product, as it is an important component of many delicious salads.

That's why housewives cook beets quite often.

However, it is rare to hear about the liquid left over from cooking being used in some way. However, this is an omission.

What is the value of the resulting decoction?

If you have indoor plants, then you have at your fingertips an incredibly high-quality and natural fertilizer that will saturate the flowers with vitamins and minerals.

During the cooking process, the broth is saturated with the chemical composition of the beets themselves, as a result of which we have a real fertilizer at our disposal.

How to use the product?

It is worth noting right away that when working with plants, it is important to boil beets in clean water without using any other components (for example, table vinegar or salt).

After the liquid reaches room temperature, it should be filtered. Then we dilute the concentrate with settled water in the same amount and apply the fertilizer under the root.

It is also important to remember that the product is used only on the day of preparation.
