Nettle manure
Nettle stems and leaves may be transformed into an excellent, all-natural, organic plant fertilizer. Adding this kind of fertilizer to watering plants will make them healthier. In addition to bearing healthy fruit and lush, verdant foliage, they will also be prolific flowerers. An inexpensive and efficient plant stimulant is fermented nettle.
Up to half of the nitrogen in nettles comes from their stems and leaves. Therefore, the fertilizer is most effective in areas where nitrogen is lacking. Moreover, throughout their growth, all plants require it.
Caution should be used when using nettle fertilizer to plants like tomatoes, since an overabundance of nitrogen may cause the leaves to develop excessively at the cost of the fruit. Half nettles and half other garden weeds is the optimal ratio for tomato fertilizer. The high potassium and phosphorus content of comfrey makes it an ideal plant to utilize with tomatoes.
Most plants benefit from the microelements, which nettles contain, as well as the up to 37% calcium, 34% potassium, and 6% magnesium.
Because it stunts the development of peas, beans, onions, and garlic, nettle fertilizer is not a good choice for these crops.
How to create fertilizer from nettles:
First, gather some nettles and coarsely slice them using kitchen shears. It is best to not use nettles that have flowered and set seed. No matter how careful gardeners are, nettle seeds will eventually fall to the ground and aid in the plant’s propagation.
