Therefore, it will be useful to learn about fertilizer "Baikal EM-1", application for indoor plants and a number of other subtleties. What is “Baikal EM-1”?
To begin with, this is not quite fertilizer or top dressing in the usual sense of the word."Baikal EM-1" does not contain the substances necessary for plants for intensive growth, flowering and fruiting, but the culture of microorganisms.
Experienced gardeners know that over time, any soil is depleted, even with regular fertilizer application and top dressing - digging up plots destroys bacteria living in the soil. Because of this, fertilizers are worse assimilated, the roots and leaves cease to rot. In such cases, you should use the "Baikal EM-1."Bringing it into the soil, you restore the normal balance of bacteria, for a long time restoring fertility.
How to use and what to fear
Following the instructions, dilute the required amount of Baikal EM-1 in the appropriate amount of sweetened water. After a few hours, you can make the water rich in bacteria in the soil, just watering it - the effect will be noticeable in a few days. However, one should not be zealous - it is possible to use fertilizer for irrigation no more than once a week. At other times, it is better to use plain water.
Also, using "Baikal EM-1", do not forget about the usual fertilizers - bacteria accelerate the process of processing of useful substances, but do not replace them.
Under no circumstances should fertilizer be used after the expiration date. Because of this, part of the aggressive bacteria( sour-milk) destroy the rest, and when introduced into the soil can significantly increase its acidity - not all flowers love high acidity and may well die.
