Why experienced gardeners do not throw away dandelions

Any responsible gardener, seeing a dandelion, immediately sets out to weed, because these living flowers are able to spread over the entire area in a short period of time. However, you should not rush to throw out these weeds: they can save you.

How can you use dandelion

Universal fertilization

Many gardeners use so-called green fertilizers, where any weed is taken as the basis. Dandelion can also become such an ingredient.

You should find about a kilogram of flowers and chop them, send them to a container with 10 liters of water and wait 14 days.

After that, the concentrate should be filtered and diluted with water : the same amount of liquid per 10 liters of feeding. Fertilization is suitable for almost all types of plants.

It is carried out once every 14 days.

The plant material itself after filtering should not be thrown away – send the remains to the compost.

Against pests

A special product based on dandelion is able to cope with any type of aphid, which significantly increases the chances of harvesting a rich harvest.

The method is used both for preventive purposes and for fight against the population of pests.

To do this, pour 300 g of crushed plant material with a bucket of water and leave for 12 hours. The agent is filtered and goes without dilution into a container with a sprayer.

After that, spraying is carried out.

It can be carried out several times during the season, giving the plants a “rest” in 4 days.
