If you want to use compost, then 1 kg of the product should be diluted in 2 liters of water. Under one bush, you need to put an incomplete shovel of the resulting liquid.

The second option of feeding involves the use of mineral agents. Phosphate and potassium fertilizers are suitable.

To do this, dissolve 4 tablespoons of superphosphate and 2 tablespoons of any potassium fertilizer in a 10-liter bucket of water. Then you can water the beds. After this procedure, it would not be superfluous to sprinkle with wood ash.
