Add to water and boil. This tomato fertilizer works better than expensive store-bought fertilizers

By liliaturcin5

The use of fertilizer is essential for the growth and development of tomatoes. Proper nutrition will make fruits tasty and juicy. There are many ready-made medicines on store shelves, but I have something better for you!

To maintain high harvest rates, fertilizers are essential. They replenish the soil with nutrients, making plants strong and vital. Fertilizers in liquid form are absorbed more quickly.

Natural fertilizer for tomatoes

To prepare the natural fertilizer we need 1 tablespoon of cloves, the peel of 1 onion, 300 ml of water and the contents of 2 black tea bags. Instead of regular tea, you can use coffee grounds; they contain potassium, magnesium, nitrogen, manganese, phosphorus and other trace elements necessary for garden plants.

Step by step process:

1. Place the ingredients in a saucepan and fill it with water.

2. Put the pan on the gas and boil its contents for 10-15 minutes.

3. Then pass through cheesecloth.

Dilute the fertilizer with water before watering the tomatoes. To 100 ml of solution you need to add 3 liters of water. Water the tomatoes once every 25 to 30 days.

Fertilizer for tomatoes based on ash and nettles

I want to share with you another effective “grandmother’s” method.

Pour the water into a 10 liter saucepan. Add 500g of ash – it should be pure wood ash. Then pour a handful of onion peels with several bunches of nettles (without roots) into the pan. Cook all ingredients for 15 minutes. Let it sit overnight and in the morning you can filter the mixture and pour it over the tomatoes.
