You won’t have to lament the meager and small strawberry harvest if you choose the right fertilizers.
Special attention should be paid to the fertilizers that are applied to strawberry bushes in the spring; they are considered the most important.
How to properly feed strawberries
Fertilizers are selected taking into account the age of the strawberry bushes.
In the first year, you don’t need to apply fertilizer – it’s an optional procedure.
The plant will need mineral and organic fertilizers in the second and fourth years; in the third year, it is preferable to apply only mineral fertilizers.
How to feed strawberries in spring
Do not doubt the correctness of your actions, including the introduction of April feeding in the care of strawberries.
Prepare a watering solution from 10 liters of water and 1 tablespoon of nitroammophoska. Add 0.5 liters under each bush.
Fertilizer from nettle
Pay attention to the enormous role and benefits of natural organic fertilizers.
Nettle will not only fertilize the strawberries, but also nourish the soil with useful substances.
Fill a bucket to the brim with nettles, add water and let sit for 4 days. Dilute the infusion 1:10 and start watering: 0.5 l under each bush once every 30 days.
