How to improve the soil

Vegetable, fruit and berry crops on miscellaneous grow on various types of the soil. Plants have to be fully provided with soil power supply, heat, moisture and light therefore it is necessary to consider it when planning landings on the garden site. To affect weather patterns gardeners not in forces, but soils will be able to increase fertility.

It is required to you

  • - ground limestone;
  • - dolomite powder;
  • - chalk;
  • - manure;
  • - compost;
  • - biohumus;
  • - siderata.

Instruction

1. First of all it is necessary to make the exact analysis of structure of the soil on your site. Specialists of agrochemical laboratories of agricultural scientific research institutes which are practically in each region will help with it. Proceeding from data of the analysis, pick up necessary receptions for improvement of the soil.

2. If you have no opportunity to address experts, it is possible to define soil type, having made the simplest test. Take earth handful from depth about 20 cm in different places of the site, soak it in water to consistence of the test and try to roll ball from this weight.

3. If it is impossible to make it, besides palms remain clean, then such soil — rykhlopeschany. If the ball also does not roll down, but palms are soiled, then the soil sandy.

4. In case the ball managed to be rolled, try to make of it cord. If the cord is impossible, the soil — sandy. The cord has turned out, close it in ring. If it is not possible to make it, the soil loamy and if, on the contrary, the cord can be twisted, so clay.

5. On degree of acidity of the soil divide into silnokisly, srednekisly and subacidic and close to neutral. Quite often gardeners increase its acidity own hands, using mineral fertilizers more often than organic. Besides, plowing the earth too deeply, accelerate washing away of useful substances from it.

6. Many garden cultures are very sensitive to acidity of the soil therefore it needs to be adjusted. The substances containing calcium are necessary for raskisleniye. It can be ground limestone, dolomite powder or chalk. The more small these substances are ground, the better. Surely close up lime or dolomite powder to the soil, but do not scatter on its surface. You carry out lime application of times in 2-3 years.

7. You bring substance at the rate of 200-400 g on 1 square meter on sour sandy or loamy soils. If the earth average and tyazhelosuglinisty is required to from 300 to 600 g on square meter.

8. Such receptions as introduction of wood ashes, manure, compost and biohumus perfectly are suitable for increase in fertility. They are scattered on earth surface, and then dug over, closing up to the soil.

9. Well garlic, marigold, calendula, wormwood, nettle and so on revitalize the soil. After crops of siderat the earth becomes as down: friable and air-permeable. White mustard, rye, sunflower, oats, etc. belong to siderata.

10. Seed siderata on the released beds, they will quickly go to growth. Prior to blossoming mow them, leaving roots in the earth. Dry mowed grass a little and close up to the soil. These plants contain huge amount of nitrogen, starch and protein. They will loosen deep soil layers, thereby will improve the water and air mode, will enrich with organic matters for 5-6 years.
