Uncle Li has been growing vegetables for more than 20 years and has been using chemical fertilizers to fertilize.
However, in recent years, Uncle Li has felt that the quality of vegetables is getting worse and worse, with bare leaves, growing thin, and not sweet enough to eat.
What's more, no matter how much fertilizer is applied, vegetable production just can't be raised, and business has reached a bottleneck.
Uncle Li was in a hurry, and pondered how to increase land production capacity all day long, but it was useless to try all kinds of methods.
One day, Uncle Li had a whim, could it be that the long-term dependence on chemical fertilizers has led to the barren land and the death of microorganisms?He decided to switch to organic fertilizer, and after research, it was found that cake fertilizer contains a lot of nutrients and does not harm the soil, which is the best organic fertilizer.
At this moment, Uncle Li's mood was excited and worried. He finally found the light of hope, and the next step was to study how to ferment cake fertilizer.
He silently made a promise to the land in his heart, and he must make this land full of vitality and produce high-quality vegetables again!
Uncle Li conducted a detailed investigation and analysis of cake fertilizer and found that it is rich in nutrients, not only containing minerals such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, but also rich in organic matter such as protein, fat, and sugar, which is incomparable to chemical fertilizers.
In particular, the organic matter is as high as 75%-86%, far exceeding the general organic fertilizer, which can be called the top grade of the top grade.
In addition, Uncle Li was also pleasantly surprised to find that the cake fertilizer almost does not contain pathogenic bacteria, and will not attract underground earthworms and other pests, which can greatly reduce the probability of pests and diseases.
This means a lot to Uncle Li. In the past, relying on chemical fertilizers, it was often necessary to use a large number of pesticides to kill insects and prevent diseases, which was not only expensive, but also caused damage to the body and land.
However, Uncle Li also understands that the cake fertilizer must be completely rotted before it can be used. Otherwise, macromolecular organic matter such as fat and protein is not decomposed, and it is difficult for crops to absorb and utilize.
At the same time, the fermentation process will produce high-temperature root burning, which will seriously affect the yield. Therefore, Uncle Li was engrossed in the study of fermentation methods, and he was convinced that high-quality cake fertilizer would bring a good harvest!
Uncle Li has tried a variety of fermentation methods, at first he used the conventional rotting method, exposing the cake fertilizer to the air to decompose naturally.
But the time was too long, and the vegetables of the first season had long since ended, and he was only half rotten. Later, Uncle Li switched to the heating method to speed up the decomposition. However, high temperatures tend to scorch cake fertilizer, resulting in nutrient loss.
Uncle Li was silent all day long, anxious about the low fermentation efficiency. Unexpectedly, the neighbor Biandanwang saw Uncle Li's embarrassed appearance and enthusiastically recommended the EM bacteria fermentation method to him.
The king of the flat dan painted the sound and color to tell the miraculous effect of em bacteria mixed with a variety of microorganisms, ensuring that the cake fertilizer can be fermented and matured in ten days.
Uncle Li was overjoyed after hearing this, and thanked him again and again. He immediately bought EM bacteria and went home to try it, and sure enough, the effect was amazing, the cake crumbs completely rotted into a powdery form, and the process was almost odorless. Uncle Li was so excited that he finally found the "panacea" for fertilizer!
Uncle Li applied the cake fertilizer fermented and matured by EM bacteria to vegetable cultivation, and found that the effect was miraculous.
First of all, the soil fertility has been significantly improved, not only the nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium have been replenished sufficiently, but also trace elements such as calcium, magnesium, and iron have also been effectively supplemented, which is very helpful to improve the soil barrenness caused by the long-term use of chemical fertilizers.
Then, the resistance of vegetables to soil-borne diseases such as wilt and soft rot is greatly enhanced. This is because EM bacteria are rich in benign microorganisms such as actinomycetes and yeasts, which can inhibit the growth and reproduction of pathogenic bacteria.
In this way, Uncle Li can greatly reduce the amount of pesticides used, which is beneficial to the environment and the body.
In addition, EM bacteria can also decompose hard sand particles in the soil, increase the water and fertilizer retention capacity of the soil, and provide a variety of growth-promoting substances such as pectin and vitamins to effectively promote the growth and development of crops.
Uncle Li found that the tomato growth this time was gratifying, with a well-developed root system and full fruit.
This year, Uncle Li's hard work and persistence finally paid off a fruitful harvest. When autumn arrives, the red tomatoes are in full swing and are very enchanting.
Uncle Li picked a few tomatoes for the first time and ate them all fresh, sweet and sour in the mouth, crisp and delicious, compared with the blandness and weakness of previous years, it is simply a world of difference. Uncle Li couldn't help but shed tears of relief.
In addition to tomatoes, vegetables such as greens and cucumbers are also growing well, and they are full of juice and lush. What surprised Uncle Li the most was that the peppers were hung all over the lush pepper trees, densely packed with raw and spicy peppers, and they couldn't be counted.
Uncle Li was secretly glad that he had found the right helper, it was like a gardener who worked silently, helping the land to rejuvenate itself.
During the harvest season, Uncle Li's face was full of laugh lines. He vowed to make persistent efforts, carry forward the spirit of "who knows that Chinese food is hard", love the land, and continue to cultivate a more fruitful harvest with high-quality organic fertilizer!
