Beneficial effects of comfrey manure

• Reinforces the leaf cuticle, a mechanical barrier on the leaf surface for greater resistance to insects and other pathogens.
• Rich in allantoin, the use of comfrey extract promotes cell multiplication and, consequently, seedling growth.
• When watered into the soil, it stimulates microbial flora and attracts macrofauna. Highly recommended when using RCW, which tends to "harden" the soil.
• Fermented comfrey extract helps clean up soil treated with Round-Up. - Helps prevent soil oxidation and accelerate compost degradation.

How to use comfrey purin?

• To revitalize old plants and energize young plants, mix 50% comfrey manure with 50% nettle manure.
• When fruiting time comes, you can then use comfrey purin (during growth: 2/3 nettle purin + 1/3 fermented comfrey extract. During the fruiting period: 1/3 nettle purin + 2/3 comfrey purin).
• For soil polluted with Round-Up, water the soil with plenty of water to revive the water system. Dilute 10% of comfrey manure with a watering can, and repeat 4 times at one-week intervals.
• This product is for preventive use only. Do not use on pests or diseases.
• Store in a cool, dark place.

How do I dilute comfrey purin?

To dilute plant extracts, use rainwater or spring water at room temperature. Tap water contains too much chlorine and limestone, which oxidizes the soil. It can alter the effects of soil care by counteracting the effect of bacteria.

For foliar spraying, dilute at 5%: 0.5 L in 10 liters of rainwater, 2 to 3 times a month. When spraying, you can add 3% black soap (surfactant).

For soil watering, dilute at 10%: 1L in 10 liters of rainwater, 2 to 3 times a month.

Production methods for ÉlémenTerre fermented extracts

The comfrey used to make our fermented extracts (also known as purin) is freshly hand-picked during the harvesting season, or grown by ourselves or a local organic farmer. Fermentation is controlled anaerobically (without air) to avoid any risk of oxidation. Spontaneous addition of 0.3% effective micro-organisms. The fermented extracts are packaged in AIRLESS BIBs, which ensure better preservation while protecting these natural preparations from oxidation. Made in Brittany, suitable for use in Organic Agriculture. Regulation n°834/2007
