How to use dolomite flour

Dolomitic flour is a crystalline mineral formation, crushed and dried. There are many calcium and magnesium in this substance. The qualitative composition of the dolomite flour and the low price contributed to the fact that this substance has gained tremendous popularity among gardeners and gardeners as a fertilizer.

1
Dolomite flour can be made to open soil, greenhouses and greenhouses. It is also popular with this substance and among the flower water. The best effect can be achieved after making a crushed dolomite into sandy and sampling soils that suffer from lack of magnesium and calcium. In plants that mineral substances are obtained in the required volume, the improvement of the root system is noted, the volume of crop increases.

After making dolomite flour, the physical, biological and physicochemical indicators of the Earth is several times, and acidity is reduced. If you use a dolomite flour in parallel with other fertilizers, such as manure, then the effectiveness of the latter will increase. However, you need to be attentive, you can not mix these two fertilizers. At the first stage should be made dolomite, on the second - manure, on the third - to switch the plot.

Dolomite flour is widely used not only as fertilizer, but also as a means for dealing with parasites. Dolomite fine grinding acts destroying the chitinous covers of many types of harmful insects.

The amount of fertilizer, which must be made to the site, primarily depends on the level of acidity of the Earth and its mechanical composition. The average standards are as follows: 0.5-0.6 kg of dolomite per 1 square meter is made on sour soil (PH 4.5). If the soil is average (reaction 4.5-5.2), then the amount of fertilizer should be 0.45-0.5 kg per square. And with the weakly acid reaction of the Earth (pH 5.2-5.6), 0.35-0.45 kg of dolomite per square meter is made.

5
If you are dealing with heavy clay ground, then you need to increase the amount of dolomite introduced by 12-15%. If the earth is light, then you can reduce the dosage by 2 times. To check the acidity of the soil and other chemical parameters, you can buy a testing device in a specialized store.

6
Clay heavy soils will have to handle dolomite fertilizer annually. All other types of soil require fertilizers every 2-3 years. As a rule, limeting is carried out in autumn. As necessary, the tool is introduced in the spring.

7
During the limestation, the substance needs to be distributed evenly throughout the entire portion of 12-15 cm. The surface layer of the soil should be thoroughly mixed with dolomite flour. Of course, you can simply sprinkle the soil with dolomite, but the effect of such an impact will be slow and will appear no earlier than in a year.

8
There are plants that are especially "loved by" dolomite flour. These include cherry, apricot and plum trees. They are useful to contribute 1.5-2 kg of dolomite each autumn after the harvest is assembled. It is worth making fertilizer and under the black currant bushes - the rate of 0.5 kg 1 time in 2 years. Make dolomite and when landing turnips, cabbage.

9
But sorrel, blueberry and gooseberry Dolomite fertilizer "do not like". Therefore, the fertilizer is not submitted under these plants.

10
When falling down colors, the dolomite fertilizer is brought into a hole or pot. It is important to mix the flour with soil thoroughly. The Dolomitic flour on violets, hyacinths and orchids act well.

Remember, despite its utility, it is impossible to scatter the dolomite flour in the site. Before fertilizing, it is necessary to check the level of acidity of the soil. If the earth has a neutral reaction, then it is impossible to use this fertilizer.
