Nu aruncați frunzele care cad din copac la gunoi sau pe câmp. Cum le transformi în îngrășământ natural? • Newsweek România
Transforming fallen leaves into leaf humus is an effective way to enrich garden soil. This natural fertilizer is created by allowing leaves to decompose over time, resulting in a nutrient-rich material. Unlike regular compost, leaf humus is made solely from leaves and helps retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weeds. Almost any type of leaf can be used, but black walnut leaves should be avoided due to their toxicity. To prepare leaf humus, leaves can be stored in various ways, layered with water and optional nitrogen fertilizer. After a few months, the result is a dark, crumbly substance that can be used to enhance flower beds and potting soil, providing nutrients throughout the growing season.
