10 drops in a barrel for watering and vegetables are no longer recognizable. Increased the yield by 2 times with the help of simple tricks
In order for the plants to grow better and the harvest to be greater, manufacturers have come up with a variety of top dressings that can be easily bought at any store. But there are long-proven, effective folk remedies that help plants no worse than expensive formulations to which anything can be added. Many do not write in the composition of what is actually there. After all, in order for the harvest to increase faster, and people to buy some kind of product more often, chemicals can also be added to it.
How to use
The easiest way is to simply add the required amount of product to the watering barrel. Many in the garden have such barrels of 200 liters. I try not to use well water - rainwater collects in a barrel, which is more beneficial for plants. Yes, and it's easier - you stir the top dressing in the water and you know for sure that you will not overfeed.
In addition, too cold water can ruin all your efforts. And the water from the barrel is always at a comfortable temperature, even if it has warmed up in the sun. And if you don’t want it to get very hot, just cover the water with a lid if the barrel is in the sun.
What to use
I use three simple tools. I buy one of them in specialized stores and two in a pharmacy. I use it in turn, because the most important thing in this case is not to mix anything. But you can add one thing, just watch how your plants react to top dressing.
potassium humate
organic fertilizer. Ideal when plants are already bearing fruit. Vegetables and fruits become larger and full of flavor. I brew 1-2 teaspoons (10 drops) of a liquid product with a liter of boiling water and leave for 1-2 hours. Then I pour the jar into a barrel.
Iodine
A very useful fertilizer not only for plants - iodine is necessary for all living beings. With iodine, everything is much simpler - just add 10-20 drops per barrel, stir and start watering.
Potassium permanganate (potassium permanganate)
Known to many since childhood, potassium permanganate is also great for plant nutrition. It is sold in powder, so it must also be prepared first. We take the powder (literally on the tip of a knife), add it to a liter jar, dissolve it, and pour it into our barrel.
And once again I repeat - you should not mix all these compounds. Just add potassium humate first, water your garden. Next time use iodine, and next time - potassium permanganate. Don't share. It is not necessary to feed the plants more than once a week. And let your harvest grow by leaps and bounds!
