What Kind Of Fertilizer is Best For Organic Gardening?

Amaral Farms on June 3, 2020

People that are new to natural gardening frequently assume that organic garden plant food is just an additional kind of plant food in a bag. That is most certainly not the case, there is more that goes into organic gardening than what you feed your plants. We will discuss the three main ways you can deliver fertilizer to your garden soil, the benefits and draw backs of each so you are better informed on what to use.

There are many types of fertilizers you can use in your garden. Not just the NKP ratio but also what makes us the material in the fertilizer. The NKP ratio, or Nitrogen to Phosphorus to Kalium (latin for Potassium) will dictate the ratio of one to the other and the concentration of each in a given quantity of fertilizer. A 10-10-10 is a fairly common mix and as it states has an equal mix of each at a concentration. In this case you would need 10 pounds of fertilizer to add 1 pound of each nutrient to your soil. When the lix is say 10-5-5, you then have twice as much nitrogen as phosphorus or potassium and 10 pounds of fertilizer would add 1 pound of nitrogen but only 1/2 a pound of the others to the soil.

El brócoli es un vegetal súper nutritivo que muchos realmente. Sus beneficios nutricionales son abundantes, está lleno de vitaminas esenciales como K & C, mientras que proporciona un gran nivel de vitamina A y folato. Es alto en fibra, lo que entre sus beneficios para la salud también le da una sensación de plenitud. El brócoli tiene más proteínas que la mayoría de las verduras. Oh y aquí hay algo que muchos no saben, puedes comer las hojas de una planta de brócoli como una col rizada o una col rizada.

Es una verdura muy popular en todo el mundo y especialmente en los Estados Unidos. En una encuesta reciente realizada por Green Giant, el brócoli fue elegido como la verdura favorita de los americanos por segundo año consecutivo. Treinta y nueve de los 50 estados lo nombraron número uno. Si lo miramos basado en las ventas reales, es típicamente el cuarto o quinto. Su simplicidad de preparación se ve en cierto modo eclipsada por su falta de versatilidad. No puede ser usado de tantas maneras y en tantos platos como el ajo o la cebolla. Lo que probablemente lo mantiene fuera de la lista de los amerindios en los viajes de compras. Sin embargo, si uno cultiva sus propias hojas y las usa, encontrará más usos para este nutritivo vegetal.
