Figs, figs, fig trees - these are all the names of the same plant that we steadfastly associate with Mediterranean life. Whoever tasted fig fruits at least once knows how delicious it is. But, besides the delicate sweet taste, they are also very healthy. And here's an interesting detail: it turns out that the figs are completely unpretentious plant... In addition, it can be successfully grown on a plot in middle lane or at home - in a container.
Quite often, even experienced summer residents have difficulties in growing tomato seedlings. For some, all the seedlings turn out to be elongated and weak, for others, they suddenly start to fall and die. The thing is that the apartment is difficult to maintain ideal conditions for growing seedlings. Seedlings of any plants need to be provided with plenty of light, sufficient moisture and optimal temperature... What else do you need to know and observe when growing tomato seedlings in an apartment?
Delicious vinaigrette with apple and sauerkraut - a vegetarian salad made from cooked and chilled, raw, pickled, salted, pickled vegetables and fruits. The name comes from a French vinegar sauce, olive oil and mustard (vinaigrette). Vinaigrette appeared in Russian cuisine not so long ago, around the beginning of the 19th century, perhaps the recipe was borrowed from Austrian or German cuisine, since the ingredients for the Austrian herring salad are very similar.
When we dreamily sort out bright bags of seeds in our hands, we sometimes subconsciously believe that we have a prototype of the future plant. We mentally allocate a place for him in the flower garden and look forward to the cherished day of the appearance of the first bud. However, buying seeds does not always guarantee that you will end up with the desired flower. I would like to draw your attention to the reasons due to which the seeds may not sprout or die at the very beginning of germination.
Spring is coming, and gardeners' work is increasing, and with the onset of warmth, changes in the garden occur rapidly. On the plants that were still asleep yesterday, buds are already beginning to swell, everything literally comes to life before our eyes. After a long winter, this is good news. But along with the garden, its problems come to life - insect pests and pathogens. Weevils, flower beetles, aphids, clotterosporia, maniliasis, scab, powdery mildew - you can list for a very long time.

The question of how to grow healthy seedlings, all summer residents are concerned in early spring... It seems that there are no secrets here either - the main thing for fast and strong seedlings is to provide them with warmth, moisture and light. But in practice, in a city apartment or a private house, this is not so easy to do. Of course, every experienced gardener has his own proven method of growing seedlings. But today we will talk about a relatively new assistant in this matter - a propagator.
The Sanka tomato variety is one of the most demanded in Russia. Why? The answer is simple. He is the very first to bear fruit in the garden. Tomatoes ripen when other varieties have not even faded yet. Of course, if you follow the growing recommendations and make an effort, even a novice grower will receive a rich harvest and joy from the process. And so that the efforts are not in vain, we advise you to plant quality seeds. For example, such as seeds from TM "Agroupech".
A task indoor plants in the house - decorate housing with their appearance, create a special atmosphere of comfort. For this, we are ready to take care of them regularly. Leaving is not only about watering on time, although this is also important. It is necessary to create other conditions: suitable lighting, humidity and air temperature, to make a correct and timely transplant. For experienced florists there is nothing supernatural about it. But beginners often face certain difficulties.
Tender cutlets from chicken breast with champignons to cook simply according to this recipe with step by step photos... There is an opinion that it is difficult to cook juicy and tender cutlets, this is not true! Chicken meat contains practically no fat, which is why it is dry. But if you add to chicken fillet cream, white bread and mushrooms with onions, it will turn out awesome delicious cutletsthat will appeal to both children and adults. Try adding wild mushrooms to your minced meat during mushroom season.
Phosphorus is a macronutrient essential for all plants at every stage of development. Phosphate fertilizers are important in the cultivation of fruit, cereals, berries and vegetable crops... The formation and growth of generative organs depends on whether there is enough phosphorus in the soil.
The benefits of superphosphate in the garden
Normal plant growth is impossible without phosphorus. Superphosphate allows you to get bountiful harvest delicious vegetables.
There is little phosphorus in its natural form and its reserves in the soil are quickly depleted. Therefore, phosphorus mineral fertilizers applied annually - this is a mandatory element of agricultural technology for any crops on any soils.
Often even with good care and abundant application of organic matter, the plants on the site do not look good. Purple spots appear on their leaves, which indicates a lack of phosphorus. Usually, this symptom appears after a sharp cold snap, since in cold weather the roots cease to absorb phosphorus.
If, after the air temperature has increased, the plants have lost their purple hue, then there is enough phosphorus in the soil. If this does not happen, feeding is required.
Phosphate fertilizers are made from minerals natural origin, mainly from phosphorites. Some volumes of ferrous are obtained by treating with acids tomslag - waste generated during steel production.
Phosphate fertilizers are produced by many countries of the former Soviet Union:
- Ukraine;
- Belarus;
- Kazakhstan.
In Russia, phosphorus fertilizers are produced by 15 enterprises. The largest is LLC Ammofos in the Vologda region, the city of Cherepovets. It accounts for at least 40% of all produced phosphorus fertilizers in the country.
Simple, granular and double superphosphates contain phosphorus in the form of water-soluble monocalcium phosphate. The fertilizer can be used on all types of soils by any method of application. Its shelf life is not limited.
Table: Types of superphosphate
| Name and content of phosphorus | Description |
Simple 20% | Gray powder, can cake in humid atmosphere |
Granular 20% | Prepared from simple superphosphate by rolling the powder into gray granules. They don't stick together. Contains magnesium, calcium and sulfur. Dissolves in water, slowly and evenly releases active ingredients |
Double up to 46% | Contains 6% sulfur and 2% nitrogen. Granules gray, are obtained by processing phosphorus-containing minerals with sulfuric acid. The fertilizer contains the most phosphorus in a fast-dissolving, easily digestible form for plants. |
Ammonized 32% | Contains nitrogen, calcium, potassium and sulfur. Useful for growing cabbage and cruciferous crops. Does not acidify the soil, because contains ammonia, which neutralizes the decomposition of superphosphate |
Double superphosphate application rate
- In spring or autumn, when digging a garden bed - 15-20 gr. per sq. m. fertile and 25-30 gr. per sq. m. infertile soil.
- In rows when sowing and planting seedlings - 2-3 gr. one lin. m. or 1 gr. into the hole, mix with earth.
- Top dressing during the growing season - 20-30 gr. by 10 sq. m., add dry or dissolve in 10 liters. water.
- Fertilizing the garden in the spring for digging or feeding after flowering - 15 gr. per sq. m.
- Hotbeds and greenhouses - 20-25 gr. per sq. m. in the fall for digging.
Dosages:
- a teaspoon - 5 gr;
- a tablespoon - 16 g;
- matchbox - 22 gr.
Top dressing
Superphosphate is poorly soluble in water, as it contains gypsum. So that the fertilizer can penetrate to the roots faster, it is better to make an extract from it:
- Pour 20 tbsp. l. pellets with three liters of boiling water - phosphorus will go into an easily digestible discrete form.
- Place the container in warm place and stir from time to time. The dissolution of the granules will occur within a day. The finished hood is white.
The working solution must be diluted before applying to the garden:
- Add 150 ml of suspension to 10 l. water.
- Add 20 gr. any nitrogen fertilization and 0.5 liters. wood ash.
Superphosphate for tomatoes
Phosphorus starvation of tomatoes is expressed in the coloring of the lower surface of the leaves in a purple color. First, specks appear on the leaf blades, then the color changes completely, and the veins turn purple-red.
When superphosphate can harm
Superphosphate dust can irritate the respiratory tract and cause watery eyes. When pouring granules, it is better to use funds individual protection: respirators and goggles.
Superphosphate is absorbed very slowly by plants. After its introduction, symptoms of phosphorus overdose never occur. If there is a lot of phosphorus in the soil, the plants will signal symptoms:
- interveinal chlorosis;
- new leaves are formed abnormally thin;
- the tips of the leaves fade, become brown;
- internodes are shortened;
- yield falls;
- the lower leaves curl up and become stained.
Fertilizer is fire- and explosion-proof. It is not poisonous. It is stored indoors or in special areas inaccessible to pets.
Phosphorus in this fertilizer is 26%. Chemical formula: Ca (H 2 PO 4) 2 x H 2 O and CaSO 4. There are two types: powder and granular. The first option is cheaper, but it has rather low efficiency. You won't find it in stores now, granulated is sold everywhere. Therefore, we will give exactly its characteristics.
Pros: in addition to phosphorus, it contains nitrogen (6%), calcium (17%), sulfur (10%) and magnesium (0.5%). Perfectly absorbed by plants.
Minuses: 40% of the fertilizer consists of gypsum, which is absolutely useless for plants. That is, buying a package of fertilizer, you actually give half of its cost for the unnecessary substance.
When to deposit: in the fall for digging.
Application features: can not be mixed with urea; ammonium, sodium and calcium nitrate; potassium carbonate, lime, dolomite, chalk.
Superphosphate double
In this version, phosphorus superphosphate is 40-50%. Chemical formula: Ca (H 2 PO 4) 2 x H 2 O.
Pros: in its composition there is twice as much phosphorus than in simple superphosphate, which means that there is much less unnecessary ballast. Double superphosphate is more expensive than usual, but not much. And you need to make it two times less. As a result, in terms of one hundred square meters, it turns out more profitable. And it's easier to deliver it to the dacha, because instead of two packages simple fertilization you only need one double.
There are no downsides! And if you know about them, write in the comments to the article.
When to deposit: in the fall for digging, in the spring in holes or rows, as a liquid top dressing during flowering plants.
Application features: cannot be mixed with urea, ammonium, sodium and calcium nitrate, potassium carbonate, lime, dolomite, chalk.
Where can superphosphate be used?
As we found out, superphosphate has no significant drawbacks, while the double has none at all. However, it cannot be used everywhere. This fertilizer can be safely applied only on alkaline and neutral soils.
For acidic soils, superphosphate is not suitable - phosphorus oxide, which is part of the fertilizer, enters into reactions in an acidic environment, as a result of which iron and aluminum phosphates are formed. Plants cannot assimilate these substances. Therefore, before using superphosphate, the soil must be deacidified: scatter 500 g of hydrated lime per 1 m 2 over the surface (on highly acidic soil), and dig up the area on a shovel bayonet. And only a month after that, you can add superphosphate.
When and how much to add superphosphate
Digging in the autumn. it traditional version, since phosphorus is absorbed by plants for a very long time - in 2-3 years they use only 40% of the fertilizer.
Application rate: double superphosphate - 1.5-2 tbsp. spoons (20-30 g) per 1 m 2, simple 3-4 tbsp. spoons (40-60 g) per 1 m 2. This is for normal soils. On the emaciated and very poor, the dose is doubled.
In the spring, in holes or rows. You can add superphosphate in the spring, in rows just before sowing seeds or in holes before planting seedlings. It's over economical option, fertilizer is consumed less, but plants will begin to assimilate it later than with autumn application.
Application rate: double superphosphate - 1 tsp (5 g) per well or 1 running meter row, simple - 2 teaspoons per well or 1 running meter of a row.
By the way, it is very useful to add superphosphate to the holes when planting potatoes - it will not only feed the plants, but also save the garden from the wireworm.
During the flowering of plants. Phosphorus is known to be responsible for profuse flowering, therefore, it is useful for them to feed the plants at this particular time. In this case, use a liquid top dressing. First, a mother liquor is prepared: 20 tbsp. spoons (300 g) double superphosphate pour 3 l hot water (the fertilizer will not dissolve in the cold) and stir periodically until the granules are completely dissolved. Then the concentrate is shaken and diluted at the rate of 150 ml per 10 l of water. It is also useful to add 20 ml of any liquid vermicompost and a half-liter can of wood ash here.
Plants are watered at the root at the rate of 1 liter per bush or 1 linear meter of a row.
Signs of phosphorus deficiency
It is possible to determine that plants lack phosphorus by their appearance and leaves. With phosphorus starvation:
Growth slows down greatly;
- leaves become "rusty" or dark green with a bluish tint, curl and fall off;
- dark copper or black-purple spots appear on the lower leaves;
- leaf petioles turn purple.
These signs most often appear when the temperature of the air and soil drops - when the temperature drops, the plants absorb phosphorus worse.
To remedy the situation, you urgently need to water the beds with a superphosphate solution - how to prepare it is described above.
IMPORTANT!
In superphosphate (both simple and double), phosphorus is in the form of phosphoric acid. It practically does not move in the soil - where it was brought in, it is fixed there. Therefore, these fertilizers are necessarily embedded in the ground to the depth of the bulk of the roots. If you just scatter it over the surface of the site, there will be no sense.
NOTE
Gypsum, which is contained in simple superphosphate, as we found out, is unnecessary ballast. In the vast majority of cases. But there are exceptions to any rule.
For example, gypsum improves the properties of podzolic and sandy loam soils. It is also beneficial for legumes and cruciferous plants. So, in these cases, it is worth using not double superphosphate, but just a simple one.
Fertilizer superphosphate ─ mineral composition, which includes phosphorus and nitrogen. It also contains a number of nutrients for plant growth, such as sulfur, potassium and others.
Phosphorus plays an important role in the life of crops, accelerates growth and increases resistance to various diseases. Thanks to him, the fruits of plants are preserved longer, have a beautiful appearance and pronounced taste. The use of an agrochemical is popular with gardeners, summer residents and gardeners.
When to apply?
If the plant lacks phosphorus, it signals this with external signs:
- Blue-violet spots appear on the back of the leaf.
- The foliage becomes reddish.
- The entire leaf turns bright green with a purple tint.
Usually, such signs appear due to a lack of heat and light. During a cold snap, the plant's root system is unable to properly draw phosphorus from the soil. This agrochemical in such cases can radically change the situation. Its use in alkaline and neutral substrates produces remarkable results.
Types of superphosphate
To choose the right superphosphate, you need to carefully study its types and their use:
What soils can it be used on?
If other fertilizers are applied to the soil in small portions and at a certain stage of plant development, then superphosphate is able to ensure proper crop growth throughout the season.
For the maximum effect of fertilization, you need to figure out on what soils it works:
- Soil with alkaline and neutral reaction... In such a soil, the efficiency of fertilization is maximized, which favorably affects the vital activity of all crops.
- Sour soil.The union of an agrochemical and such a soil leads to the formation of iron and aluminum, the properties of which the plant does not need at all. The problem can be eliminated by adding wood ash and limestone to the soil. .
With other soil types, superphosphate works ideally, but using several methods that help reduce soil uptake of the agrochemical:
- It is necessary to use hardly soluble types of superphosphate.
- Use the method of applying superphosphate in rows.
- Provide spot absorption of fertilizer by soil.
- Apply superphosphate to specific locations.
How to apply?
To achieve the desired results, you need to know exactly how to fertilize the soil when growing a particular plant. Instructions for use are always indicated on the packaging or in the enclosed insert. Double and simple types are used in the cultivation of all types of plants and trees without limitation. Both types of superphosphate are very effective when planting seedlings and sowing seeds.
However, the use in some types of soils has a number of nuances:
Dosage
The dosage of the agrochemical is determined based on the variety of culture and soil composition:
- When growing vegetables and spicy herbs double superphosphate is introduced into the soil in 6 tbsp. l. for 1 sq. m. plot. When making simple kind fertilizers, the dosage is doubled.
- If the soil has become scarce in the presence of nutrients and trace elements, then in this case the fertilizer dose is increased by 30%.
- For good yields of garden treesabout half a kilogram of a double type of agrochemical is introduced into the soil.
- For plants, grown in greenhouses and greenhouses, 100 grams of fertilizer is enough.
- Planting a vegetable like potatoes, about 1 tsp is poured into each well. substances.
Step-by-step instruction
A double agrochemical is used with the onset of spring, before planting crops. You can also apply the agrochemical immediately after harvest. During the intensive growth of plants, watering with a fertilizer solution can be carried out, do this once or twice a season.
- Step one... Using a double type of substance, it is advisable to use a grain sieve, since such a fertilizer is in the form of granules.
- Step two.The primary layer of superphosphate must be carried out before sowing and planting seedlings. This is often done using a plow. Thanks to this method, the granules will not be washed off by irrigation and rainwater and will not settle into the soil below the sowing layer.
- Step three... You can apply the method of manually spreading fertilizer, but this action is practically ineffective. The plant needs access to fertilization by the root system, which is impossible with this method.
- Step four... Gardeners are advised to use double superphosphate together with potassium substances and bring them in in the fall and early spring.
Table of application of superphosphate to the soil by month
| Name of the month | Application instructions |
| September | The recommended method of main application is 15 cm, which will allow the phosphorus to remain in the soil. |
| April | The agrochemical requires deep application, which facilitates the dissolution of the substance into ions. |
| May | Fertilization of the soil is carried out simultaneously with the sowing of seeds. This method will provide intensive seedling growth and provide root system useful substances. |
| Summer months | During this time, the agrochemical is used as a crop fertilizer. The amount of fertilizer is determined based on the type of soil and the cultivation characteristics of a particular plant. |
Superphosphate extract
Phosphorus agrochemical dissolves problematically in water. But in a liquid state, it reaches the root system of the plant faster. Farmers have found a way to transform matter from solid to liquid.
Method one... First of all, to dissolve the granules in water, it is necessary to increase the reaction temperature. For these purposes, water is used at about 90 degrees, that is, boiling water. With this dissolution, everything beneficial features phosphorus are preserved. Phosphorus takes on a form that is easily absorbed by the plant. The container with the solution is transferred to heat and stirred repeatedly until all the granules are completely dissolved. After about a day, you will get a ready-made suspension that looks like milk.
It is recommended to dissolve 20 tablespoons of the substance in 1/3 of a bucket of water. This stock solution is then used as the main fertilizer. To do this, slightly more than half a glass of the finished suspension is diluted in a bucket of water with the addition of 4 tbsp. l. nitrogen substance and 0.5 liters of wood ash.
The resulting fertilizer is used in early spring to feed the plant. During active growth, the plant experiences an acute shortage of nitrogen, and such assistance will ensure the rapid absorption of nitrogen by the roots from the soil. As for the phosphorus element, it does not reach the plant root system immediately. Its effect lasts for many months, and sometimes for more than one year.
Second way.The second way to dissolve superphosphate in water is to use live bacteria. For these purposes, fertilizer is mixed with microbiological preparations that protect plants from various diseases... After that, the resulting compound is diluted with water at room temperature and infused for 24 hours. In this case, the suspension must be stirred frequently. The suspension is used for root and root dressing.
Estimated cost
The price of superphosphate will be determined by the manufacturer's brand, the quality of the substance and its quantity.
For example, 0.5 kg of double superphosphate will cost about 30 to 50 rubles. An agrochemical in a package with a capacity of 1 kg will cost from 60 to 200 rubles.
Phosphorus compounds play an important role in plant growth, therefore application superphosphate fertilizers will provide them with vital substances, the result of which will be high productivity.
Even if you are not farming professionally and only handle small area in the country or near the house, you probably know what simple superphosphate is. Many summer residents and farmers actively use it at the initial stage of growing vegetables, as well as throughout their active growing season.
This type of fertilizer belongs to the category of complex nitrogen-phosphorus fertilizing, the introduction of which has a positive effect not only on the processes of development and growth, but also contributes to a longer and more abundant fruiting.
1 Superphosphate production
To understand what superphosphate is needed for, we offer you a short excursion into the features of its production and use. Absolutely all plants need phosphorus.
By starting to regularly apply phosphate fertilizers to the soil, you automatically provide each crop with optimized nutrition.
Phosphorus-based fertilizers are used at almost all stages of soil cultivation and cultivation.
1.1 Superphosphate composition
Superphosphate is a mineral supplement obtained as a result of the natural or stimulated decomposition of phosphates, which are naturally present in a free state. As the name of the fertilizer suggests, it consists mainly of phosphorus, the content of which in the fertilizer, depending on the saturation of the bait, is 20-50%.
Some varieties also contain a small fraction of potassium, which promotes better absorption a large number nutrients, or sulfur. One of the significant advantages of this type of bait is its excellent solubility in water, which allows it to be used for both root and foliar fertilization of plants.
1.2 Properties of superphosphates
The benefits of adding superphosphate to the soil in autumn, as well as in the process of growing crops, is enormous, since it contributes to:
- active development of the root system, including tubers;
- slows down the aging process;
- balanced diet;
- faster entry into the fruiting phase;
- improving the taste of fruits.
This type of top dressing is rightfully considered universal, since it can be used to enrich any soil. Its use is most effective on neutral or alkaline soils.
1.3 Varieties
The most popular form of release is granular composition. Traditionally, it is more convenient, since it can be used both as a dry fertilizer and for foliar fertilization due to the ability of the granules to dissolve.
Automation of production in specialized factories makes it possible to efficiently granulate raw materials for superphosphates. Thus, they extend the shelf life of the fertilizer and make it more convenient for transportation and storage. It should also be noted that modern technologies superphosphate production can significantly reduce its cost.
1.4 Extraction from superphosphate
The fertilizer is highly soluble in water and can be used for watering and spraying plants during the growing season and fruiting. To increase the effectiveness of the product, experienced farmers prepare a so-called extract from granular raw materials - a concentrated solution of fertilizer in water. high temperature (about 75-85 degrees).
How much to dilute with water - depends mainly on the actual state of the treated crops. We recommend a standard dosage of 20 tablespoons of fertilizer per 3 liters of water, the use of a more aggressive ratio can harm the plants. It is recommended to cool the composition dissolved in this way and add it to the soil or use it to spray the herbaceous part of the crops.
2 Use of superphosphates
It is believed that one of the most favorable months for the use of phosphate fertilizers is August. At this time, active harvesting is carried out, and top dressing can be used both to stimulate fruiting and to restore the optimal composition of the soil.
Among fruit trees Apple trees are considered the most grateful fan of phosphorus. Top dressing of apple trees is recommended mainly in spring and autumn, however, if during the hot summer you carry out mineral watering under the apple tree 2-3 times, this will definitely not harm it.
Feeding strawberries in autumn proved to be very effective; strawberries and all varieties of tomatoes respond well to phosphorus. Phosphate, especially applied at the root, is considered the best means growth stimulation for grapes and roses, for garlic and nightshade crops.
In general, we can conclude that a competently made solution (and you already know how to dissolve superphosphate in the optimal concentration) cannot harm the plants.
2.1 On the importance of phosphate fertilizers in agriculture (video)
2.2 How to use superphosphate?
Phosphorus based fertilizers are versatile - they stimulate the receipt of better yields and promote the rapid recovery of plants after stress, including abundant fruiting. If we talk about the features of feeding with superphosphates, we recommend using three types of fertilization:
- dripping dry granulate into the ground;
- root watering;
- spraying.
Before feeding (in particular, dissolving superphosphate), we recommend that you carefully study the condition of the plants. The main signs of phosphorus deficiency include leaf pigmentation in rich purple tones and premature wilting of the herbaceous part.
2.3 Superphosphates for potatoes
Foliar feeding of potatoes with superphosphate is one of the most effective methods stimulating the appearance of the ovary and almost the only way improve physical and taste qualities tubers. You can apply phosphorus fertilizer directly in the process of planting this culture - about 3-4 grams of granulate in each well.
2.4 Superphosphates for tomatoes
Receiving big harvest tomatoes is a matter of honor for every self-respecting summer resident. Helping plants is easy - just dilute liquid phosphorus fertilizer and use it to water the tomatoes and occasionally spray. The successful experience of feeding tomatoes with phosphorus is easily explainable - when it gets on the leaves, the trace element is quickly absorbed and almost immediately moves to all organs of the plant, restoring the optimal chemical composition and promoting better nutrition.
2.5 Superphosphates for Garlic
Planting garlic in the fall is practiced almost everywhere in our country, which, as you know, is best time for applying phosphorus fertilizers. When planning a dressing for garlic, we advise you to use granular raw materials, which must first be dug to the level of cloves.
