Strawberries are currently in the active flowering stage, which means that there is not much time left to draw up a correct plan to increase yields.

However, if you introduce the right means, the amount of berries will not disappoint you.

It is worth paying attention to two worthy fertilizers, notes the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , a scientist agronomist and landscape designer.

What compositions are important to pay attention to?

Classic Ash

At the flowering stage, the crop needs a well-balanced composition. Ash perfectly meets this requirement. You will need to mix 250 ml of the substance with 10 liters of water.

To enhance the effect, you can introduce boric acid in a small amount (two grams will be enough).

Spraying

This method is an alternative to the previous one. The working components remain the same, but the method of their introduction changes.

In this case, we use ash for dusting.

Boric acid will be used for spraying. We reduce the concentration of fertilizer to one gram per the same volume of water. The effectiveness of the techniques is approximately the same.
