1. All mineral fertilizers are divided into potash, nitric, phosphoric and difficult. Nitrogen fertilizers work quickly and are well dissolved in water. They can be applied (except ammonium sulfate) in a dry form to fertilizing and in the form of water solutions.

2. In ammonium nitrate there are 33-35% of nitrogen, in the spring it brings superficially. This fertilizer slightly acidifies the soil therefore it is possible to add lime or chalk to it if the earth on the site already sour.

3. Sulfate of ammonium contains 20-21% of nitrogen, it well dissipates and too slightly acidifies the soil. Urea is the most concentrated nitrogen fertilizer, content of this substance in it 44-46%. It is applied to the main introduction, in the form of fertilizing and not root power supply. Urea decays in the open air therefore it is necessary to dig in at once it to the soil at superficial introduction.
