A question from truck farmers: "Why does the greenery grow green in the greenhouse?"

No matter how the economic situation in the country changes, the fashion for own gardens and vegetable gardens remains unchanged. Still millions of people from early spring to late autumn are experiencing how to grow a good harvest. A considerable contribution to this business is made by greenhouses. They provide an opportunity to provide the family with an early fresh herbage, allowing in the northern regions to grow tomatoes, cucumbers and other heat-loving crops.
However, these "assistants" require correct treatment, they may have problems. Many gardeners and gardeners are faced with such a phenomenon as changing the composition of the soil. Then the question arises as to why the greenery in the greenhouse is green. What can contribute to this?

The land in the greenhouse is green for several reasons. In total, there are four: waterlogging, acidity increase, fertilizer surplus and insufficient ventilation. This leads to the appearance of algae or moss, it is these plants that give the soil a green color. Let's consider in detail these factors and ways of their elimination.

The first reason why the greenery in the greenhouse is green is a large amount of moisture. It happens in the early spring and in cool weather. Summer residents forget that the greenhouse is a closed space, evaporation of moisture is slower if the temperature
"Overboard" is not very high. Coping with this trouble is not difficult. You can apply Mulching the soil, and often will not need watering. To do this, use traditional mulch in the form of hay, straw and sawdust. And you can take non-woven, covering materials, they are even more profitable, under them weeds grow less.

The second reason why the greenery grows green in the greenhouse is the increase in the acidity of the soil. To find out the level of this indicator, you need to conduct a small experiment. Take a 0.5 liter plastic bottle. There is a little warm water poured in, a few spoons of earth are poured. A rubber medical fingertip is put on top. They shake the bottle well. If the finger was inflated - the soil is sour, did not fully straighten up - weakly acidic, remained hanging - the pH was normal. In case of increased acidity, it is necessary to add lime or chalk to the ground. But the ash should not be taken for these purposes, as it will require a lot, and this can lead to other problems.

The third reason why the greenery in the greenhouse is green is the presence of a large number of fertilizers. This is the case when "they wanted as best, but it turned out as always". There is only one advice here: carefully observe agricultural practices. Well, if it has already happened, it is worthwhile planting such crops that require a lot of fertilizer. For example eggplant.

The fourth reason why the greenery in the greenhouse is green is the lack of airing. Here it must be remembered that your country house should have a door, a window (on the contrary, on the sides, and also it will not interfere with the roof). Such distribution will allow to regulate air flows, also provide free access to insects, and they are necessary for successful pollination.

One more general advice. In the greenhouse, as elsewhere, it is necessary to observe a crop rotation, this will help to avoid many problems and will help increase the yield.
