What experienced gardeners put in the hole when planting cucumbers to get a rich harvest

Any housewife can find a worthy use for cucumbers, so everyone tries to grow as many vegetables as possible.

Often the influence is caused by the fertilizer that was added to the hole right at the time of planting.

Thanks to this, vegetables instantly receive a "vitamin boost" that will allow them to begin full development, notes Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer.

What fertilizers are considered the best?

Onion peel

This is an excellent preventative measure against many diseases, which is why the peel is popular with many summer residents. Thanks to this secret, cucumbers grow healthy and give an excellent harvest.

A handful of husks will be enough for one hole.

Nettle

At the time of transplanting the seedlings, young and useful nettles are already actively growing. This is an excellent means for increasing the cucumber harvest.

It is necessary to collect nettles, chop them and leave them in hot water for several minutes. Afterwards, the plant material is combined with the soil and sent to the hole.

Fish waste

It is believed that this type of feeding is one of the best. Experienced gardeners accumulate waste throughout the season, put it in the freezer, and then grind it in a meat grinder.

Afterwards, you can add some fertilizer to the hole when planting cucumbers. However, it is worth remembering that the fish waste will need to be covered with a layer of soil.
