This Proven Fertilizer Makes Tomatoes, Peppers, and Cucumbers Thrive Like Never Before

Hello, dear gardeners and gardeners. Today I will tell you what folk feeding will transform tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers without complex fertilizers. Well, as always, I will tell you about several feedings, and you will choose what is right for you. There are many folk recipes that are no worse than purchased ones. Let’s start right away.

Hello, dear gardeners and gardeners. Today I will tell you what folk feeding will transform tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers without complex fertilizers.

We feed tomatoes and cucumbers with bread sourdough, a very popular fertilizer among gardeners. I think many people have bread left over, we need about half a loaf of bread, preferably black bread, or crust from it, soak it in warm water for a couple of days, if you add a few handfuls of grass, it will be even better and healthier for the plants. Next, the finished infusion should be diluted 1:10 (1 liter of finished infusion per 10 liters of water).

If the same infusion is kept for 5-7 days (pre-covered with a lid), you get a very useful fertilizer, with which we water under the plant, but it is diluted 1:3, pour 500 ml under the bush. Feed 1 time every 7 days when the first ovaries appear and until the end of fruiting. Bread tincture is especially good for alkaline fatty acids. Chalk or dolomite flour, which can be added to this tincture, will help neutralize the acid.

The next one is for tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers. It will be citric acid, please do not be surprised, the most ordinary lemon is an excellent source of energy, especially if the leaves curl up and the plant looks depressed. Take 1 tbsp per 10 liters of water, mix and pour 500 ml. under the root.

They will not burn the plants, please do not be afraid, but such feeding will help to eliminate the deficiency of many elements, while reducing the risk of top rot on tomatoes and quickly reviving any plant. When citric acid is used, phosphorus is more available to the plants.By the way, the amount of lemon is small, so it cannot acidify the soil.

And the last one is a green fertilizer, we prepare an infusion of weeds (nettles, dandelions, etc.), chop them and fill them with water, you can cook in a bucket or barrel, add ash 200 grams here, mix everything and let it brew for 5-7 days (depending on the weather), stirring occasionally, do not tightly cover the container in which you prepare the infusion.

Before watering the plants, the finished infusion should be diluted 1:10 and watered at the root with 1 liter, tomatoes and cucumbers. I usually use the infusion 2-3 times per season. I would be glad if these fertilizers help you grow a healthy crop.
