How to use peanut shells as fertilizer
Peanut shells can be used as organic fertilizer, but they need to be fully fermented and decomposed. Peanut shells we come into contact with are generally used as additives for commercial organic fertilizers.
Because the water content of many manure is too high in the fermentation process, according to the national regulations of commercial organic fertilizer, the water content should be lower than 30%.
Many organic fertilizer manufacturers will crush peanut shells and add them to organic fertilizer for fermentation, which can reduce the humidity in organic fertilizer.
Of course, we have a large number of peanut shells, which can be fermented separately or used as organic fertilizer. In fact, peanut shell fermentation is similar to other manure fermentation.
Generally speaking, after piling peanut shells, a certain amount of water and urea can be added to improve the carbon-nitrogen ratio.
Under a certain humidity, a certain amount of microbial agents or em bacteria can be added to peanut shells to promote fermentation. At the same time, it is covered with plastic film, which will gradually ferment with high temperature and the temperature will gradually increase.
Generally, it takes about 30 days to ferment in summer and more than 60 days in winter to fully ferment and decompose. During the fermentation process. It is recommended to turn over the pile once, which can be more fully fermented and decomposed.
After the peanut shell is fermented and decomposed, the temperature will gradually drop to about 40 degrees. In general, it can be used as base fertilizer in soil after fermentation.
It is best to use microbial fertilizer to improve soil when using base fertilizer, and the effect is good.
Because of the low content of organic matter in peanut shells, it is generally best to use about 2000 kg of land per mu for the best effect. At the same time, the proportion of microbial fertilizer should reach 300~500 kg, and the effect is the best.
What flowers can fermented peanut shells raise?
Fermented peanut skin can be directly planted with flowers. Generally, fermented peanut shells are used to grow Clivia, orchids and the like, including our ordinary flowers.
Pay attention when mixing soil. After mixing, it can not only be breathable and permeable in the soil, but also provide nutrients for flowers. This is a very good organic soil, and you can grow any flowers at home.
It should be noted that peanut shells can't be used to raise flowers without fermentation and thorough decomposition, otherwise they will ferment in pots and produce a lot of heat energy, which will cause flowers to burn their roots and hurt their seedlings.
