Some summer residents grow zucchini so actively that they share their harvest with all their relatives and friends.

If your crop is not so productive, the situation can always be corrected.

Agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert for the online publication BelNovosti, notes that the set goal can be achieved with the help of three natural means.

What are we talking about?

Iodine

This product has a great effect on the development of zucchini at an early stage. Iodine is used only twice. The first time we carry out the treatment 14 days after planting.

The second time we process the crop during the period of active flowering.

Preparing a working solution is simple: take forty drops of the active substance in a bucket of water.

Ash

This method is also used only twice. The interval between procedures is two weeks. This remedy allows you to double the number of fruits.

You will need to mix two liters of ash with ten liters of water. Wait 24 hours. For each liter of concentrate, take 10 liters of clean water.

The consumption of the product is quite high: each bush may require from 3 to 10 liters of fertilizer.

Boric acid

The method is actively used to increase the number of ovaries. You will need to prepare a fertilizer with a simple calculation: a spoon of boric acid per bucket of water.

Afterwards we carry out the procedure. You can use the prepared composition both for watering (1 liter for each plant) and for spraying.
