Fertilizers and feeding 2023, February

"Vermicompost" does not contain any chemical, mineral or synthetic additives. It is a waste product of California red worms that recycle organic waste from crops and livestock. It includes: humic acids, humates, & nbsp; & nbsp; macro- and microelements, microflora and plant hormones, as well as soil antibiotics

Ash from burning wood, leaves, grassy residues is an excellent potassium-phosphorus fertilizer. Moreover, the potassium and phosphorus contained in it are in a form readily available to plants. The ash also contains some trace elements necessary for vegetable plants ( magnesium, boron, sulfur, etc. ). Ash does not contain chlorine, so it is good to use it for plants that react negatively to chlorine: strawberries, raspberries, currants, potatoes

Potassium is one of the mysterious elements in plant nutrition. If nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrients form strong organic compounds, that is, they are the building blocks of which the entire cell and the plant as a whole are built, then potassium does not form such strong organic compounds. & Nbsp; & nbsp

Fertilizers are substances of organic and inorganic origin used to improve plant nutrition

In a garden, the potential soil fertility can be increased by systematic composting, green manure, and long-acting ABA fertilization. This approach to agriculture forms the basis of the organic farming system, which involves the restoration and improvement of soil fertility by making composts, soil mulching. In this case, the feeding of vegetative plants is carried out with infusions of various organics, including herbs

I have four jars in the kitchen. In one I collect eggshells throughout the winter, in another - onion skins, in the third - sleeping tea, in the fourth - orange peels. I will take all these supplies to the dacha in the spring, and they will be very useful

With liming of acidic soils, plant nutrition with nitrogen and ash elements - phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and molybdenum - improves. Improved nutrition on limed soils is also explained by the fact that plants develop a more powerful root system and therefore are more able to absorb nutrients from soil and fertilizers. However, this cannot happen automatically. A number of conditions must be met

Regular liming of the soils of the summer cottage, on average once every five years, with one of the fertilizers listed in this article provides a radical improvement in acidic soils, increases their fertility and improves plant nutrition

Liming is currently considered not only as a means to destroy acidity, but also as a way to mitigate many of the unfavorable properties of soils. Liming is also called chemical melioration, a method of radical improvement of all soil properties with an acidic reaction of the environment. In addition, liming is also the introduction of calcium and magnesium to improve plant nutrition with these elements. And in order for gardeners to better understand this, today we will talk in detail

Green fertilizer - fresh plant matter plowed to enrich the soil with organic matter and nitrogen. This technique is called green manure, and plants grown for fertilization are called green manure

Having solved and learned the secrets of root and air nutrition, one can quite consciously apply fertilizers, increase yields and the quality of agricultural products

Plants do not have a special organ for nutrition. They absorb nutrients with all their organs: leaves, shoots, roots, etc. Therefore, plants extract root nutrition ( from the soil through the roots ) and air ( absorption of nutrients from the air through leaves and other organs )

All agricultural crops are in great need of potash fertilizers on peaty, sandy and sandy loam soils. These fertilizers are also highly effective on floodplain and sod-podzolic soils. On them, potash fertilizers are used in combination with nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers. Only peatlands, floodplains and meadows sometimes receive only potash fertilizers, where they pay off well

Ash from burning firewood, straw, branches, plant residues for many gardeners can become an affordable universal complex fertilizer. There is no nitrogen in it, but it contains potassium, phosphorus, calcium and a whole set of trace elements

Root nutrition of plants is the most effective way to absorb mineral nutrients ( nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium, sulfur, trace elements ) and water. However, it is relatively rare for agricultural crops to find in the soil all the nutrients they need in an easily assimilable form, in sufficient quantities and, which is very important, in the correct ratio

There are as many fantasies about the construction of composts as there are gardeners themselves. Practice has shown: good compost is obtained in structures that have air access. The compost does not need to be buried, creating a hole

Potassium chloride - the main potash fertilizer - more than 50 % K2O. Potassium chloride is highly caked, especially fine-crystalline, during transportation and storage. It is used as the main fertilizer for all crops, since it contains the least amount of chlorine

AVA fertilizer is a complex mineral fertilizer that allows high quality plant nutrition and high yields. Due to its structure, AVA dissolves gradually in soil over several years

The lack of minerals causes changes in physiological processes, which leads to morphological changes. The most vulnerable part of the plant is the leaves: they change in size, shape and structure

The BIONIKA company offers for sale vermicomposters for creating vermicompost in suburban conditions from food waste. How to make the soil fertile? It's very simple: you need to add a little sand and organic fertilizer ( vermicompost ) - per one square meter of the garden bed 1 kg of sand and 5 kg of vermicompost

We are often asked about biological, organic farming and about whether it is possible to do without "chemistry", without mineral fertilizers in summer cottage farming? A suspicious attitude towards mineral fertilizers, towards "chemistry" sounds more often than we would like. This opinion is shared by many gardeners and amateur vegetable growers. It arose mainly due to a lack of knowledge in agrochemistry, on the correct use of fertilizers, on the one hand, and an abundance o

Before starting a story about plant growth regulators, I think you need to first explain to readers what these drugs are and how they work. Every gardener probably knows that if we remove the apical bud on a branch, we will ensure that it will no longer grow upward. And if we cut off the tip of the root, then we will stop its growth in length

Compost is a fertilizer that results from keeping it in heaps for a period of biodegradation. They consist of an inert component (peat, sawdust, leaves, etc.) and a biologically active component - manure, kitchen waste, etc

Organic fertilizers include manure, feces, bird droppings, peat-based composts, prefabricated and organic-mineral composts, green fertilizers, etc. Of these, manure and bird droppings are the main and most common organic fertilizers

I have a crossbar above the compost sections. I put a film on it - and the greenhouse is ready. The earliest sowing in this makeshift greenhouse I spend in the third decade of April, but most often in the middle of this month

The most serious reason to be engaged in gardening today is to get organic vegetables. Therefore, plant protection should be based on the use of agents that enhance the resistance of plants to infections in the form of active and passive immunity and biofungicides

Water-soluble complex fertilizer Novofert is intended for seed treatment, foliar treatment of plants and can be used at almost all stages of the growing season. +7 (911) 237-03-76

When growing seedlings, as well as heat-loving plants in greenhouses, gardeners sometimes encounter clearly undesirable properties of soils and ordinary soil. For example, there are high humidity, density, soil caking. But plants need the soil in which they grow to contain sufficient water and air. Therefore, in some cases, it is desirable to add special additives, both mineral and organic, to the soils

Fertilization is one of the most important factors in increasing crop yields. The fertilization system must be compiled taking into account the fertility of the soil, the supply of its nutrients, the biological characteristics of plants, their requirements for mineral nutrition

Each fertilizer has its own characteristics. This is their specificity. Each fertilizer is designed to fulfill a specific purpose - either to fertilize a particular soil or crop, or to be applied in a specific way

Potassium, phosphorus and micronutrient fertilizers contained in the solution, in addition to the destructive effect on pests, saturate plants with minerals. To enhance the fertilizing effect, I add a solution of mineral fertilizers to the ash solution. In June, it is a urea solution, in July - azofoski, in August - superphosphate and potassium sulfate

Californians are very gluttonous, they eat 500 times more than our earthworms, they multiply quickly and live up to 15-16 years. Therefore, I got a good land very quickly

The benefits of organic fertilizers are manifold. They are a source of carbon dioxide for air nutrition of plants, they have a mild effect on the soil, since they slowly release mineral nutrients

Mineral fertilizers, or in other words, tuki are inorganic compounds containing nutrients necessary for plants. Mineral fertilizers contain nutrients in the form of various mineral salts

Potassium humate "Prompter" is a universal organo-mineral fertilizer based on humic acids for green, vegetable, fruit and berry crops, garden and indoor flowers from the Oktyabrina Aprelevna trademark

We offer professionally prepared soils ( substrates ) and ZeoFlora zeolite-based soil conditioners for plant cultivation that can significantly improve the quality of your standard soils. ( 499 ) 110-30-17

Mineral fertilizers and plant growth regulators Zeba®, Kornevin®, Emistim® from the Oktyabrina Aprelevna trademark

As you know, one of the basic components of obtaining rich harvests is numerous top dressing. The number of such dressings, as well as their composition, is a rather individual value. It depends on the conditions at this site, and taking into account also the weather in a particular season

Nutrition in plants ( as, indeed, in humans ) should be balanced and regular - otherwise nothing. Have to feed dosed - in small portions. How? The options may be different - depending on personal preferences, the presence or absence of time and effort, etc

Do not be afraid to use mineral fertilizers, following the rumors that this is some kind of "chemistry". All of them are obtained from natural deposits, from fossils, you just need to know why and how to use them
