You can also use nutritional yeast, potato peels, wood ash, or nettle infusion as fertilizer.

Scatter wood ash (100 g per bush) under the bushes, cover with earth and loosen with a rake.

After this, the bush should be watered.

To provide the plant with adequate nutrition, you can combine organic and mineral fertilizers.

Among the most effective mineral fertilizers, professionals highlight nitrogen-containing fertilizers, as well as potassium sulfate.

If you do not have the opportunity to prepare fertilizers of plant or animal origin, you can use ready-made store-bought complexes.
