Traditional Chinese medicine residue is a valuable organic waste, and its fermentation into fertilizer can not only reduce environmental pollution, but also provide rich nutrients for plants. This article will introduce you how to ferment traditional Chinese medicine residue into fertilizer, so that you can easily turn waste into treasure.
1. The fermentation principle of traditional Chinese medicine residue.
Traditional Chinese medicine residue contains a large amount of organic matter and nutrients required by plants, which can be converted into fertilizer through fermentation technology, which can effectively improve soil fertility and promote plant growth. During the fermentation process, microorganisms decompose the organic matter in the traditional Chinese medicine residue into simple organic matter, which is then synthesized into fertilizer.
2. Materials required for fermentation.
Chinese medicine residue: The decoction of Chinese medicine residue is dried or dried, and crushed into powder for later use.
Fermentation culture: Buy or make your own fermentation culture.
Compost materials: such as leaves, dead grass, animal manure, etc.
Water: to taste. 3. Fermentation steps.
Mix the Chinese medicine residue powder with the compost material in a ratio of 1:1, add water and stir well.
Add the fermentation culture to the mixture according to the instructions.
Stack the mixture in a well-ventilated, dark place and cover it with plastic film.
Stir the mixture once a day to ensure adequate fermentation.
After 2-3 months, check that the mixture is fermented. If fermentation is complete, it can be used.
Fourth, how to use.
The fermented Chinese medicine residue fertilizer is mixed with the soil in a ratio of 1:1 for plant planting.
During the growth period of the plant, the traditional Chinese medicine residue fertilizer can be applied regularly.
5. Precautions.
During the fermentation process, it is necessary to maintain good ventilation to avoid odors.
The fermentation time is affected by factors such as ambient temperature and humidity, so please be patient.
When using homemade fertilizers, please ensure safety and hygiene to avoid harm to the environment and the human body.
Conclusion: The fermentation of traditional Chinese medicine residue as fertilizer not only realizes the reuse of waste, but also provides rich nutrients for plants. With a simple fermentation step, you can also easily turn the waste of traditional Chinese medicine residue into treasure. Give it a try!
