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.
