Sweet, juicy and aromatic strawberries are the dream of, perhaps, 100% of summer residents, so it is not surprising that plantations of this crop can be found on almost every plot.

However, not everyone succeeds in achieving outstanding results in growing strawberries.

If you are not among the lucky ones, use the recipe for fertilizer, after applying which the leaves of the plants will become elastic and juicy, and the berries will grow in abundance and will not be attacked by pests.

To prepare a nutrient solution, you need to pour two liters of boiling water over a glass of ash.

Wait until the mixture cools and pour it into a 10-liter bucket, then top it up with room temperature water.

All that remains is to add a tablespoon of iodine, 2 g of boric acid and the same amount of potassium permanganate.

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and let the fertilizer sit – during this time the ash will settle to the bottom.

The prepared mixture should be used to treat the strawberry leaves.
