Why Liquidising Food Waste Will Starve Your plants

Dr. Russell Sharp explains why pouring liquidised food waste or adding fresh, uncomposted plant material to soil or lawns can harm plant growth. Microbes breaking down this material consume available nitrogen, causing nitrogen deficiency and chlorosis in your plants, and fresh food waste can also attract pests like rodents and rabbits. The episode advises always composting organic matter or significantly increasing nitrogen if you must add uncomposted material, and warns about common sources such as grass clippings, manure, and mulch. https://eutrema.co.uk/shop/fertiliser/thatch-degrader/
