Iodine is an excellent fertilizer for many plants in the garden. It's important to know a couple of things.
Which plants are suitable for feeding with iodine
Experienced gardeners successfully use iodine for plants not only as an antiseptic and bactericidal agent, but also as an additional universal fertilizer.
Iodine as a fertilizer for plants is best used to feed indoor flowers to get good results.
This fertilizer is well suited for cucumbers, cabbage, tomatoes, peppers, and garden strawberries.
How to increase plant productivity with iodine
To fertilize the seedlings, just one watering is enough.
When you plant seedlings in open ground, the plants can be fed with iodine.
However, in this case, the concentration and dilution technology are somewhat as follows: 1 liter of solution is required for each plant.
To do this, dilute iodine drops in 10 liters of water.
To feed adult plants, dissolve 5 drops of iodine in five liters of water.
Then, using a sprayer, apply the resulting product to the plant from bottom to top.
Previously, we told you how to feed peppers in the summer.
