In order to enjoy a large amount of strawberries during the season, you need to work hard in the spring.
Experienced gardeners know that a very important factor for an excellent berry harvest is early fertilizing of the crop.

How to feed a crop before flowering
Nutritional complex
It would be wise to combine the necessary nutrients so that the strawberries are immediately saturated with everything they need. This top dressing is an excellent option.
For a bucket of water take 250 grams of ash and two grams of potassium permanganate with boric acid. It is noteworthy that this composition is used for spraying. The procedure is usually carried out in the evening, so as not to harm the cultivated plant.
Second feeding
You can also use a similar method to treat strawberries when they just start to bloom. This feeding should be done only once during the entire season.
To prepare a solution for spraying, take a bucket of water for five grams of boric acid.
If you use these two simple tricks, you will be able to collect a lot of ripe and sweet berries.
