What fertilizers will help increase crop yields

Early fertilization (before flowering)

This feeding is one of the most important, notes Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer.

It is best to pay attention to ammonium nitrate.

To do this, twenty grams of the substance are added to each square meter of the tree trunk circle.

During the flowering period

At this stage of development, it is recommended to carry out high-quality feeding based on available components. It is necessary to take five liters of mullein and ten glasses of wood ash per fifty liters of water.

A young tree requires a liter of fertilizer. But an older cherry tree will need about thirty liters of fertilizer.

Nutrient mixture

Approximately 14 days after the previous feeding, you need to prepare another nutritious "cocktail". You will need to dilute one and a half glasses of superphosphate with a spoon of potassium sulfate in a bucket of water.

This volume is enough for one square meter of tree trunk circle.
