It often happens that cucumbers develop a bitter taste.
But there is a little-known recipe that will remove the bitterness from vegetables.
Causes of bitterness
- Insufficient and irregular watering.
- A sharp change in weather. During such a period, grow cucumbers in a greenhouse or hotbed.
- Old varieties. It is advisable to use new hybrid forms of cucumbers that are genetically free of bitterness. Such a well-known variety as "Competitor" is often bitter.
- The greenhouse or hothouse is located in a well-lit area. It is advisable to shade the cucumber bushes, because hot weather promotes the appearance of bitterness in them.
