Smart summer residents always use this fertilizer, thanks to which they get a harvest of large and tasty fruits.

Eggplant comes to the fore in the summer, when heavy and substantial food fades into the background.

The good thing about it is that you can do anything with it. For example, salads - hot and cold. Cream soup or grill it, and you can also stuff the eggplant.

But small and bitter "eggplants" are unlikely to inspire culinary experiments. Most likely, an unsuccessful harvest will only make you sigh and express regret about the time spent.

To ensure that the harvest does not disappoint, gardeners advise using one simple fertilizer at the end of spring or beginning of summer.

Fertilizer for eggplant

If the ovary does not appear, then it is necessary to urgently apply boric acid. The deficiency is indicated by yellowing and drying of the top, deformation of the leaves and the appearance of pronounced veins.

Dissolve 1 teaspoon of boric acid in 10 liters of water. Fertilizer is applied under the root or on the leaf. Repeated treatment is carried out after the appearance of a new layer of leaves.
