Coca-Cola action on aphids and currants

Gardeners who decide to spray Coca-Cola notice how their shrub begins to grow actively, and its leaves grow in size and turn green. The plant on the eyes becomes healthier and taller. The reason for this miracle is phosphoric acid, which is part of soda.

The best effect is achieved after applying imported Coca-Cola. It contains more useful substances.

Gardeners often wonder how to use Coca-Cola from aphids and whether it should be mixed with something before processing the bushes. Some are afraid that the remedy will damage young shoots or currant leaves.

There are two recipes with soda:

1. Water and a sweet drink are mixed in a ratio of 1: 2. The mixture is thoroughly shaken, then they wait until the foam comes off and spraying the bush begins.
2. Carbon dioxide is released from the cola, and then liquid is added to it. laundry or tar soap. The agent is carefully sprayed on each leaf. Soap additionally envelops the aphids and prevents the insect from breathing.

Processing can be carried out with a clean drink. It does not harm currant bushes. The plant should be sprayed after every rain or hose watering, because the product is easily washed off with water and ceases to protect currants.

Sometimes gardeners mix cola with herbal tinctures or decoctions to improve their effect.

Reviews

I tried hundreds of different ways using store tools, but was afraid to resort to the help of cola. Although I read a lot of good things about this method, there were still doubts. I decided to dilute the drink with a solution that I made from tar soap. Processing was carried out in the evenings. Thoroughly sprayed each leaf from the spray. Two weeks later, the bushes came to life, and pests from their branches disappeared.

I read only good reviews about the use of Coca-Cola in the garden. Many diluted it with water or a soapy solution. I decided to use a clean drink. Before use, it was poured into a large saucepan and mixed thoroughly so that all the "gas" came out, and then returned it back to the bottle. The treatment was carried out using a sprayer. I saw the first results on the second day.

Coca-Cola is an effective and inexpensive remedy. With regular processing, it relieves the bushes from pests in two weeks. The tool can be used as a prophylaxis, but it can damage young leaves. To spray delicate sheets, it is diluted with water or a soap solution.
