The result will be an excellent organic fertilizer, the use of which will significantly improve the condition of the soil and make the chances of getting a rich harvest almost 100%.

The essence of the "3 spoons" method

Here, the word “spoon” does not mean a piece of cutlery or the volume of a particular ingredient.

In the name of the method, the word "spoon" is equivalent to the term "component".

In other words, to obtain a high-quality organic fertilizer, you need to use 3 essential ingredients.

So, there should be three types of additives in the compost bin:

  • organic waste. This group includes food scraps (potato peelings, fruit peels, onion skins, watermelon rinds, etc.), as well as garden organic materials (cut grass, cut flowers, etc.)
  • decomposition accelerators. We are talking about additives that help compost "mature" faster: unburned wood residues, mullein, coffee grounds.
  • additives that increase the number of beneficial microorganisms. Molasses and corn syrup are excellent for this role.

Adding the above ingredients is a guarantee of accelerated compost maturation and obtaining an ideal fertilizer.

The resulting mass can be used as fertilizer, mulching material, and a soil condition “improver” (it will become lighter and more fertile).

In addition, thanks to the presence of such a natural and effective fertilizer, the summer resident will be able to reduce the use of “chemicals”.
