Creating the fungicidal elixir from natural ingredients is a straightforward process:
- Chop the garlic entirely, including the peel (125 grams per liter of water).
- Place a pot with a liter of water and add the chopped garlic, allowing it to macerate for 24 hours with the lid on.
- Afterward, introduce the ground cinnamon powder, stirring gently. Boil the mixture for approximately 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Once cooled, strain the concoction into a glass bowl.
- Incorporate the glass of milk, ensuring all three ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
The resulting substance stands ready to combat fungi on plants. Pour the liquid into a spray bottle for direct application onto leaves and stems. Alternatively, some gardeners prefer to enrich the soil by pouring the mixture at the plant’s base, providing a natural infusion of essential ingredients.
For optimal results, apply the fungicide at the earliest signs of fungal or bacterial attacks. While garlic, cinnamon, and milk are plant-friendly and rich in beneficial properties, seeking advice from a knowledgeable horticulturist ensures the right intervention for specific plants. The reassurance of experts ensures the well-being of our green companions, fostering a garden of thriving, resilient plants.
