Useful tip: to help leaf parsley grow green mass, apply fertilizer immediately after cutting the greens. And to accelerate root ripening in root parsley, remove the 4 lower leaves in August.
Little tricks:
* For leaf parsley: to make the bush grow new mass faster, feed it with fertilizers immediately after each cutting.
* Winter garden: in autumn, you can dig up a couple of bushes, transplant them into a pot, and place them on a windowsill (+12+15°C). You will have fresh herbs all winter! (do not bury the "heart" when transplanting).
* Legends abound regarding the healing power of parsley — supposedly, it cures everything from cystitis to excess freckles. However, relying on rumors is risky; it is better to consult a certified herbalist.
Nevertheless, there are proven recommendations for its cosmetic use:
❖ Parsley Cream (SOS-remedy for eyes).
For puffy eyelids and fluid retention, it is advisable to use a homemade parsley cream: chop parsley leaves and stems (20 g) and mash them thoroughly with 20 g of margarine or soft butter.
Apply the cream to damp skin after washing with cold water, and then gently wipe the area around the eyes with a piece of ice. This is a powerful strike against morning puffiness!
