Fermented fern extract

Rich in trace elements and minerals (potassium, silica, calcium...), fermented fern extract helps to preventinsect attacks (black, green and woolly aphids, vine leafhoppers, red spiders, shield scale, etc.). The organic compounds it contains play an important role in plant health.

Packaging :

• 1.5 liters (€9/liter)
• 3 liters (6.50 € /liter)
• 5 liters (5.30 € /liter)

Beneficial effects:

• Fermentation waste attracts slugs and intoxicates them (metaldehyde), as does ground spraying. Be careful not to overuse it, however, to avoid saturating the soil.
• This fermented extract also has a preventive and curative antifungal function.

Directions for use

• Space out treatments in summer to avoid tiring the plant.
• Be careful to use the correct dosage, otherwise there is a risk of attracting pests and diseases.

Dilutions

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.

Foliar spraying: 5% dilution: 0.5 L in 10 liters of rainwater, 2 to 3 times a month.

For spraying, you can add 3% black soap (surfactant).

Soil spraying: 10% dilution: 1L in 10 liters of rainwater, once a month.
