It is interesting that the tradition of giving each other colored eggs for Easter dates back to the time of Emperor Tiberius, to whom, after the resurrection of the Lord, Mary Magdalene came to preach about Him, to which the emperor told her: “If the egg in your hand turns red, I will believe.” Mary took the egg in her hands with the words: “Christ is Risen!” - and it turned red. Today we paint eggs in memory of a miracle that happened many centuries ago. Onion peels The oldest and most popular way to paint eggs for Easter. When I was a child, my grandmother had cast iron, tightly packed with husks, which produced beautiful dark orange eggs. The intensity of the color directly depends on the amount of onion peel in the solution. You can diversify this coloring by wrapping the eggs in cloth or putting a leaf (parsley, dill, basil) in gauze, then an unusual pattern will appear on the egg. Tips for dyeing eggs: An hour before dyeing, remove the eggs from the refrigerator to allow them to cool. room temperature. In this case, they will not burst during cooking. brilliant appearance You can get colored eggs if you wipe them dry after painting and rub them with vegetable oil. Pour water into a saucepan and add onion skins. The red-brown color can be obtained by taking the peels of eight onions and adding two glasses of water. Based on this, you can calculate the amount of water and husk for a specific case. The water with the husks should be brought to a boil and boiled for 30-40 minutes. Let the broth sit. The broth should be filtered, freed from the husks, and the prepared eggs should be boiled in it for 7-10 minutes. To obtain a more intense color, the eggs can be returned to the broth and left until they acquire the desired shade.

IN sowing lunar calendar as of May 2016 you will find tips for the month and for every day. With this knowledge, any gardener will be able to reap an excellent harvest!
Boarding days for May 2016
Let's feed the cabbage
In early May, it is recommended to feed cabbage planted in April. Early ripening varieties of cabbage should not be overfed with nitrogen, because this leads to a delay in setting heads. It is good to fertilize with potassium; it makes cabbage more resistant to disease.
Protect tomatoes
Tomatoes - reliable protection from asparagus borer, aphids, sawfly and moth. In this regard, it is recommended to grow them near asparagus, melons, and cabbage.
It is useful to plant several tomato bushes near gooseberries, which often suffer from moth.
And the pepper will be healthy
Having planted sweet pepper seedlings in open ground, do not forget to pay attention to the leaves of the new shoots, especially during cold weather. If the temperature outside stays below 12 degrees for a long time, root system heat-loving crops (and peppers, zucchini, and tomatoes are just like that) stops working, the plants begin to starve. To maintain the growth point, they take away nutrients from the leaves, they turn yellow and then fall off.
If cold weather lasts more than 5-6 days, you can’t do without feeding the leaves with calcium nitrate (half a tablespoon per bucket of water). In addition, in such weather, it is appropriate to spray the plants with ecoberine, novosil (Silkom) or epin-extra: these drugs will help them survive stress.
Radish without bitterness
The radish will taste less pungent and be more juicy and crunchy if the furrow is lightly salted with table salt before sowing, and then the bed is generously watered in the morning and evening. But you shouldn’t do this in hot weather: the water will immediately evaporate through the leaves, without making “weather” inside the root crop.
How to feed onions
To guarantee a harvest, the onions need to be fed a couple of times during the growing season. At the end of May, 10-15 g of ammonium nitrate are added to the soil per square meter beds or for the same area a bucket of an aqueous solution of slurry (concentration 1:6).
Three weeks after the first feeding, a second feeding is carried out: 10-15 g of ammonium nitrate and potassium salt per square meter of planting.
At the same time, do not forget to water the onions.
Thanks mustard
Mustard, as a green manure, enriches the soil with phosphorus and sulfur, and partly clears the beds of mole crickets and wireworms. If this crop is sown next to peas, the harvest will be twice as large. And onions grow better after mustard.
While young
It is advisable to harvest rhubarb petioles when they are young. Old ones contain much less vitamins and much more oxalic acid, which, after heat treatment, becomes a prerequisite for the formation of oxalates (kidney stones).
For the bow
The bow will resist more actively powdery mildew, if you water it with warm water (not lower than 18 degrees). And when the bird cherry blossoms and wakes up onion fly, the row spacing should be sprinkled with tobacco dust or lime to protect against the pest.
Fertilize currants
Currants are responsive to fertilizers. Therefore, to ensure good productivity, you need to add 2-4 kg of compost or manure, 20-30 g of urea, 30-50 g of superphosphate, 15-20 g of potassium chloride per square meter annually.
Foliar feeding with microelements is also effective. We remind you that zinc increases resistance to fungal diseases, boron promotes better flowering and fertilization, manganese - increasing yield. Foliar feeding is carried out during the flowering and ovary formation phases, in the evening or in the morning after the dew has dried.
