There is much debate about the effectiveness of feeding strawberries with yeast. According to some gardeners, the final result almost depends on the feeding. Skeptics insist that yeast does more harm than good.

Perhaps the reason is that the timing of fertilizing was not met?

Let's figure out when to apply yeast fertilizer to strawberries.

Summer residents recommend applying fertilizer three times during the growing season.

First feeding

It is carried out in early spring, before new leaves appear. The bioadditive promotes the development of bushes and abundant fruiting.

Second feeding

It falls in the middle (or end) of spring and the flowering period. If you add a yeast solution during the formation of ovaries, you can speed up this process, as well as the ripening of berries, their size and taste.

Third feeding

It is carried out after harvesting and helps the bushes to recover after fruiting. It is worth remembering that at this time the buds of the next year's harvest are formed.

However, it is worth remembering that yeast fertilizers, like other folk remedies, are not able to replace the basic nutrients needed by plants.
