I buried a fragrant bay leaf on the plot: I do this every October - the effect pleases for many years
I buried a fragrant bay leaf on the plot. We do this every year in October. The effect has been pleasing for many years.
Recently, gardeners have been paying more and more attention to bay leaves – an inexpensive and effective means of improving the condition of the soil and protecting plants from pests and diseases. Experts from the ngzt.ru portal have studied this issue in detail and are ready to share their results. • Enrich the soil with microelements: bury several bay leaves to a depth of about 5 cm to enrich the soil with iron, manganese, selenium, phosphorus, magnesium and calcium. This provides plants with sufficient nutrients and promotes healthy growth and development. • Pest control: essential oils contained in bay leaves repel common garden pests. In addition, it removes unpleasant odors from the soil, creating an unfavorable environment for the reproduction of insects. • Suppresses mold and bacteria: Phytoncides and tannin contained in bay leaves effectively suppress the growth and development of pathogenic mold and bacteria, preventing plant diseases. • Direct burial: Burying a few bay leaves directly into the soil around the plant improves the soil quality and protects against pests. This is a simple and effective method. • Preparing a decoction for watering: To prepare a nutrient solution, boil 5 bay leaves in 1 liter of water. After cooling, dilute the concentrate in 9 liters of clean water and use it to water the flower beds after harvesting. This method helps improve the health of the soil.
