Nature itself is the creator of an exceptional substance - biohumus. This rich fertilizer has everything you need to improve the soil, plant growth and development.
Useful ingredients are contained in it in the form most accessible to assimilation by plants.
What is vermicompost and how to apply it
Biohumus is an organic microbiological fertilizer that is a loose black mass of small granules, similar to the soil. Its other names are Wormcomposts, Vermicompost. Being an environmentally friendly, completely natural and biologically active fertilizer, it is formed due to the vital activity of red Californian worms, which pass organic residues through the intestines along with the ground and give coprolites at the outlet. 
It contains the necessary substances for plants and trace elements:
- enzymes;
- soil antibiotics;
- vitamins;
- plant growth and development hormones;
- humic substances.
These substances with the soil are generously divided by microorganisms that inhabit it when fertilizing. Having a healing effect on the ground and displacing pathogenic bacteria, biohumus helps to increase its fertility. The composition of biohumus excludes pathogenic bacteria, helminth eggs, fly larvae, weed seeds. The physicochemical properties of biohumus are exceptional. The structure is water-resistant by 95-97%. The percentage of capacity is 200-250. Thus, vermicompost perfectly improves and meliorizes the soil.
Biohumus is formed naturally due to the work of worms living in the ground, but it is also produced by industrial methods for targeted use in fields, gardens, summer cottages and pots. Industrial fertilizer contains the necessary substances in a balanced ratio and allows you to restore the natural processes in the soil, depleted as a result of human activity.
Did you know? Biohumus can not only buy, but also to produce on your site. Home production is quite able to meet the needs of home farms.
Introduced into the soil, this fertilizer gives an immediate effect and preserves it for a single year, and the soil oversaturation is impossible, because the substance is absolutely natural and environmentally friendly. 
Let's look at the effect of biohumus on the soil:
- plant growth is stimulated;
- the soil heals naturally;
- increases plant immunity against bacteria and other stressful conditions;
- saplings and seedlings are easier to adapt;
- terms of seed germination are reduced;
- the growing season and ripening periods are shortened;
- yield increases;
- fruit tastes are improved;
- the harmful effects of chemical fertilizers are reduced;
- easily absorbed by plants, has high bioavailability.
Application and application rates before planting
A dry worm compost is added while digging the soil, and it is added to the wells and between the rows. 
The liquid form of the fertilizer is usually highly concentrated, so it is especially important to respect the proportions of dilution to avoid damage to the roots.
Did you know? Vermicompost does not have an unpleasant odor, which gives it an additional advantage in comparison with other fertilizers.
It is easy to use fertilizer, before adding biohumus to the soil, it is not necessary to carefully study the norms. Consider this question in more detail.
Growing seedlings
For a friendly sodding, excellent rooting, strong growth and high yield, the worm compost is started to be applied already at the stage of soaking the seeds before sowing. After all, it is known that a good start is the key to successful growth and fruiting. Seeds absorb active substances with gratitude and repay with strong and quick shoots. The solution is prepared in a ratio of 1:50. Soaking time - 10-15 hours. 
Germinated seeds should be placed in the soil prepared for them. Biohumus is introduced into the land for seedlings in a ratio of 1: 3-5. It is possible to plant in a pure substance, but it is not recommended, because if the plant is spoiled by excellent nutrient soil, then when planted in the ground it can react badly to the soil easier.
In the future, the drug is used for watering seedlings and spraying its above-ground parts. The frequency depends on the growing conditions and the appearance of the seedlings. The solution is prepared from one liter of water and 5-10 ml of concentrate. The average recommended watering rate is twice a month.
Check out the list of drugs that will be useful to you for the care of the garden: “PhytoDoctor”, “Ecosil”, “Nemabakt”, “Shining-1”, “Nurell D”, “Oksihom”, “Actofit”, “Ordan”, "Fufanon".Different cultures have a different need for feedings:
- when diving seedlings, a handful of fertilizer should be applied to each well;
- tomato and cucumber seedlings are very fond of additional feeding;
- lettuce and cabbage have less need for additional nutrition;
- flower seedlings will be grateful for the enrichment of the diet and gain strength for powerful flowering.
Planting tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers
When planting tomatoes, cucumbers or peppers as seedlings in open ground, a handful of worm compost (100-200 g) should be added to each well, mixed with the ground and watered generously, and only then the seedling is planted, priked it up and pressing the ground around the cutting with fingers. .
Cucumbers should be mulched with an additional centimeter layer of biohumus around each bush.
When using a liquid form of fertilizer, use half or a whole liter of solution for each well.
Did you know? It is necessary to plant seedlings in better ground than the one in which it was grown.
Sowing green crops
Seeds of green crops, such as dill, parsley, sorrel, onion, lettuce and others, should be soaked in a 3% solution (30 ml per 1 l of water) for 20 hours.
For sowing of swollen seeds, a worm compost should be embedded in the soil at the rate of 250 g per square meter, mixed with soil and watered abundantly. After the described preparation, the seeds are swollen.
The solution will need 0.5-1 liters per square.
Treat crops with a solution once a week. The concentration is the same as when soaking the seeds. 
Planting potatoes
Before planting potato tubers, it is recommended to soak them in a 3% solution of vermicompost for 3-4 hours. From 50 to 100 g of fertilizer for each planted tuber is put into the hole. The equivalent of an aqueous solution of potato biohumus is used in a volume of from 0.5 to 2 liters.
Each time before hilling, spraying is performed by adding two more parts of water to the above solution,
Important! The water for the fertilizer solution should be allowed to stand and should not be cold so that the substances contained in the concentrate dissolve more easily and act faster.
Planting winter garlic
Before planting winter garlic, 500 grams of dry (or a liter of liquid, then without irrigation) fertilizers per square are applied to the soil at a depth of 10 cm, after which the garlic is planted in the prepared soil.
Planting strawberries
For planting strawberries horticultural dry matter introduced into the hole, it takes 150 grams per bush. Pour a glass of water, solution - from 100 to 200 ml.
In August, when strawberries release a mustache, for rooting they use the same amount of fertilizer for each antenna. 
Planting shrubs
Raspberries, currants, gooseberries and other fruit bushes are planted in the hole, where 1.5 kg of dry vermicompost or 3 liters of its solution are applied. Fertilizer must be mixed with the ground and, after watering carefully, plant a bush, compacting the ground around it.
Planting fruit trees
Depending on the size and age of the sapling of the fruit tree, introduced into the planting hole of biohumus, from 2 to 10 kg, or from 4 to 20 liters of aqueous solution is required.
Planting lawn grass
To obtain a beautiful grass with green grass, 10 kg of seeds should be soaked in 100 ml of vermicompost tea. In a layer of earth, put up 0.5-1 l of fertilizer on a square, sow the prepared soil with seeds. It is recommended to treat the lawn with fertilizer solution on a monthly basis, depending on the need, twice a month. 
Application and application rates for feeding
Biohumus can be applied to the soil at any time of the year, its use will always be justified, since neither the melted water nor the rains are capable of washing the components that enrich the soil.
However, there are some rules of feeding, which are desirable to observe in order to achieve the best result.
Ornamental plants
Depending on the size of plants, their type and thickness of location in the soil, a worm compost is applied to each square of the lawn, 1 l or 300 ml per plant.
Learn more about such ornamental plants as skumampia, curly honeysuckle, coronetus crown, acacia, Vangutta spirea, Brugmancia, heather.To increase the aesthetic appearance of plants, improve their color and lengthen the flowering period, spraying should be done three times per season at weekly intervals. Vermicompost stimulates both the growth of the roots and the development of the aerial part of the plant. For ornamental plant growing this fertilizer has no equal in combination of power of action and safety.
Room colors
Biohumus is an indispensable fertilizer for indoor plants. Being environmentally friendly and safe for others, it will not poison the air breathed by the inhabitants of housing with indoor plants, toxic substances and will not provoke poor health, headaches and other possible ailments.
Important! Biohumus is dry or liquid, is used in accordance with the form of release according to the instructions for use.Fertilizer is mixed into the planting soil in the amount of one part into four parts of the earth. Basal feeding involves the introduction of 2 tablespoons of the solution every two months.
With an interval of a week, the plants are sprayed three times to stimulate the collection of green mass, strengthen and heal the aboveground part of the plant. 
Shrubs and fruit trees
Trees during the growing season should be sprayed once with a 15% solution, shrubs can be sprayed twice.
It is possible to secure a harvest for the next year by spraying a tree at the stage of planting buds. It is very useful to mulch the centimeter layer of soil around a tree or shrub, this way significantly increases the yield.
Precautionary measures
There are not many fertilizers that can compete with biohumus on safety issues. Not for people, not for animals, not even for bees, although it helps to fight some insects, the worm compost is not dangerous.
When applying it, the safety rules are normal, minimal. However, no one is immune from an individual reaction to any substance, so people with a tendency to allergies should be careful.
Plants should also be secured without watering and spraying them with undiluted concentrated solution.
Important! Soils where peat is the main component, it is forbidden to treat with biohumus, it is fraught with burns of the roots and the death of the whole plant! If such a mistake is made, the plant should be immediately removed and placed in a container with water. The faster this happens, the greater the chance of saving the plant.
Biohumus is so popular as a fertilizer by right. Being a completely natural product, it restores the soil, stimulates growth, flowering, fruiting, improves the taste of plants. Its use brings exceptional benefits and delights those who use it, always with an excellent result.
