All crops need fertilizer. But what to use so that the crop is larger, and weeds with pests are not settled, and there is no need to bring in excess chemistry? For this, special preparations are used. They contain a large number of beneficial microorganisms. They process organics, turning the remains of plants into compost.
Organic farming
More and more people are paying attention to organic farming. This is due to the fact that ordinary modern gardens are constantly susceptible to chemicals. They get from the soil into plants, and then into the human body that uses them.
Going straight to the full range of organic processing is difficult. Therefore, many gardeners begin to use individual elements. For example, use the Fokine plane cutter for tillage. Then they move on to growing green manure. After all, these plants significantly improve the structure of the soil. And this, in turn, facilitates the process of its processing and increases the yield of crops grown.
But siderata needs to be done somewhere. It turns out that there is a simple way to turn unnecessary vegetation into organic fertilizers. To do this, you need to populate it with a large number of effective microorganisms (EM). They are also called emochki. Then they create greenhouse conditions, and they quickly cope with the task. Instead of weeds, we have a bunch of high-quality compost in one season at the exit.
Microbiological fertilizers began to be used and produced by Japanese scientists. In Russia, they are doing this in Novosibirsk.
EM action
The amount of bacteria that is in the soil is not enough to quickly cope with the processing of large quantities of organic matter. Indeed, in the garden treated with a shovel or plow, the number of beneficial microorganisms is significantly reduced. Some of them die under the influence of frost. The introduced effective soil microorganisms help those that are already in the soil. They are:
- Nitrogen is taken from the air;
- They decompose organic substances to a state in which plants can absorb them;
- Inhibit pathogenic bacteria;
- Eliminate the effects of chemicals;
- Participate in the formation of humus;
- Form antibiotics, polysaccharides.
Several types of fertilizers based on EMock have been developed.
Roll No 1 (concentrate)
One of them is the Radiance 1 fertilizer. Composition - about 50 different soil EMCs. The drug is created specifically so that microorganisms can withstand severe frosts. Another name for the drug is BakSib K.
The Radiance 1 fertilizer (photo) is intended to improve the condition of the soil and increase the resistance of agricultural plants to diseases. Under the influence of these organisms, the root system is actively developing, increasing. Together with it, the remaining parts of the plant grow and grow faster. This makes plants less vulnerable to various pests. Under the influence of the drug, the fruits ripen faster, longer and better stored.
The drug is available in diluted form, in bottles.
Preparation of the preparation “Radiance 1”
Instructions for use recommends dissolving a bag of the drug in 0.5 liters of warm water, pour a dessert spoon of sugar. Stir well, hide in the dark for a day. Withstand at a temperature of 25 to 30 degrees.
After a day, the product is ready for use. It is poured through cheesecloth, folded in 4 layers.
Use of solution
"Shine 1" application instruction suggests to use in several cases. Depending on the destination, it is prepared in different ways:
- Seeds and bulbs are soaked for an hour in a liter of water, to which 1 ml of the prepared concentrate was added.
- Watering under the root is carried out once a week after seedlings appeared on the surface of the soil, or seedlings are planted on a bed. Prepare a working solution by pouring 1 tbsp. a spoonful of concentrate in a 10-liter bucket of water.
- Good results are given by foliar top dressing, which is carried out 1 p. per week, increasing the rate of consumption of the concentrate in 2 times. It is best to alternate watering and foliar top dressing.
- For processing the site in the spring. Cut siderata, mulch sprinkled with the product “Radiance 3”. Then Fokine's ploskorez or cultivator "Swift" loosen the soil. Half a glass of the solution “Radiance 1”; instructions for use advise to pour water into a bucket and water the area with the mixture. In order to create favorable working conditions for microorganisms, the area is covered with a film. For a couple of weeks, they process the vegetation on the site, turning it into compost. Then you can plant or sow plants.
- In summer, a large amount of cut grass and weeds form on the site. Having processed them with the Radiance 1 solution (0.5 tbsp. Per bucket of water), you get a bunch of excellent compost.
- You can prepare a bio-paste by pouring half a glass of solution into 15 liters of water.
To enhance the effect of “Radiance 1”, the instructions for use recommend the use of the “Healthy Garden”, “HB-101” and “Ecoberin” preparations with it.
Microbiological preparations themselves “Radiance 1, 2, 3” do not recommend introducing instructions for use without siderates and other organic residues.
Radiance 2
Designed for all types of work that are associated with sowing, planting. It contains many anaerobic microorganisms.
The substrate “Radiance 2”, aka “SibBak R”, packaged in packages of 100 g, is used as follows:
- In the spring, the soil is prepared for growing seedlings. A bucket of land mixed with 0.5 tbsp. facilities. In a liter of water, 2 drops of the HB-101 preparation are diluted and poured into the mixture. Can be moistened with warm water. Mixed. They hide the resulting composition in a plastic bag. In a warm place, protected from light, it costs at least 2 weeks. Then the mixture can be used for sowing seedlings.
- Soak the seeds. To do this, add a teaspoon of the drug and sugar to one and a half glasses of warm water. Shake well, insist 12 hours. In a warm place, protected from light.
- After the seeds have sprouted, they are peaked, watered with a solution, using 1 tbsp. In a pot l
- You can use the preparation "Radiance 2" during sowing or planting plants. The drug is applied in minimal doses, sprinkling it to the bottom of the holes.
- They process potato tubers. For 5 liters of warm water take 0.5 tbsp. sugar, add the package "Radiance 2". After a couple of hours, the tubers are immersed in the solution for a couple of seconds. Then they can be planted.
Customer reviews say that radiance 1 and 2 are almost the same bacteria, only bran is used for their preparation. For radiance 1, fine grinding is used.
Radiance 3
BakSib F is intended for fast compost formation. In its composition are enzymes grafted onto bran from wheat. Used in the household in order to get rid of the smell of cesspools.
Organic residues are ground in any way. Stacked in a heap 30 cm high. Sprinkle with a glass of the mixture. Moisturize a little. Top cover with a layer of earth. Repeat the operation several times.
And what if the blank on the compost is already laid, but does not ripen? Deep holes are made in the heap with a crowbar or other sharp object. In the resulting holes contribute 0.5 tbsp. mix and fill with water.
Then heap is treated by pouring with the preparation “Radiance 1”. It is prepared by spreading the Radiance 1 fertilizer (0.5 tbsp.) In 10 liters of water. Cover with a film. Wait up to two months. Disclose the finished compost.
Storage
How long can I store the prepared preparation “Radiance 1” (fertilizer)? Its use is best completed on the day of preparation. But it can be stored in the refrigerator for two weeks without freezing.
Then it gradually loses its beneficial properties. The creators recommend for a small area to use only part of the tool, dumping it from the package. Air and moisture should not enter the remainder.
The manufacturer guarantees storage of Radiance for two years. The shelf life of the drug is not limited.
Drug Reviews
How do gardeners evaluate the “Radiance 1” fertilizer? Reviews from many users indicate that they have been using the drugs for several years. They note that they noticed an improvement in soil condition. Plants become stronger, more resistant to disease.
Customer reviews indicate the effectiveness of the drug in removing odor from a cesspool. One application is enough to fix the problem for a year.
Gardeners noticed that feeding “Radiance” has another effect. Reviews indicate that spraying on a young leaf helps save plants from aphids.
Users say that they alternate with watering and spraying with the drug.
They do not really like that the drug is constantly becoming more expensive. Some switched to Baikal. Moreover, it seems to be more convenient to use for parts of customers. However, they note that Baikal often sell fake. With the "Shine" no one noticed. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the drug is sold in the stores of this company. But they are not in every city. Therefore, you need to buy only from trusted sellers.
A special topic is the use of mineral fertilizers and chemicals along with the “Shine”. If the former can sometimes be used, then the use of the latter will lead to the death of beneficial microorganisms.
Instead of superphosphate, users are advised to use an ash solution.
Buyers conclude that the preparations “Radiance 1” and 2 are intended “for living” (seeds, seedlings, soil), and “Radiance 3” - for non-living (compost, cesspools).
