Herbal ferment for plant nutrition

Excellent fertilizer for plants is herbal leaven: in addition to the macronutrients — nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, plants need mostly construction material – carbon. Preparation of the herbal infusion helps to accelerate the process of extraction of useful substances.





Preparation of herbal ferment (method Elena Shutova)

Freshly cut grass grind (the best fertilizer is obtained from the nettle, as it is rich in silicon and trace elements). In the barrel to pour a few buckets of grass and add as many buckets of water. For every 10 liters of the resulting infusion add 40-50g of double superphosphate (if you do not add superphosphate, fruit-bearing plants experiencing potassium starvation even when you add ashes or other potash fertilizers).

All mix and leave for fermentation. To the fermentation process took place more evenly, the infusion should be periodically stir, and barrel to place it in the shade, loosely covered. The fluid level should be 20-25 cm below the edge of the barrel, otherwise a valuable fertilizer, which will actively use the "run away".

Infusion is ready in 7-10 days, stops when copious foam when mixing. It is used unfiltered, diluted with water 1:2-4, depending on the age of plants at 1 l under a plant or 3-5 l/m2.

When mass flowering and fruiting of tomatoes in each bucket the diluted fertilizer is necessary to add 0.5-1 Cup of ashes or 10-15 grams of potassium sulfate. During feeding it is necessary to try to mix the mortar for a uniform distribution of sediment on the bottom of the bucket.





EM-extract (method Lyudmila Andreevna Vinogradova)

Prepared with the use of microbiological preparations containing effective microorganisms (EM products): best — East-EM1, but you can use a Baikal or a Revival. Because these drugs have a strongly acidic reaction, use a plastic barrel.

The volume of 200 l lay:

  • 5 buckets of grass (best — nettle, pulses, lawn grasses);
  • 1-3 kg of dolomite;
  • 3 kg bone meal;
  • EM-drug.
Add water to the level of 10-20 cm from the edge. Tie the top of the barrel with black tape and leave in the sun to ferment.

Within 10-14 days the solution will bubble, then settle. It should be diluted in a ratio of 5 l per 200 l water (second barrel) and use any of the plants, covering them entirely.

Of the extract enough to handle the plot of 30 acres or more, it must be used within two weeks (for two treatments). EM-extract is a great fertilizer mixture, stimulating the development of plants, enriching the soil with beneficial microorganisms and contributes to the suppression of pathogenic microflora.published
