Methods for increasing the fruiting period of cucumbers are always a hot topic, as this allows you to increase the yield several times.
However, it is worth thinking about this in a timely manner in order to take a number of necessary measures.
There are three effective methods that have a positive effect on vegetable yields, notes agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert for the online publication BelNovosti.
What do they consist of?
Correct arrangement of plants
If you want the number of cucumbers to always pleasantly surprise you, try to place the plant in a vertical position. Thanks to this trick, the risk of some diseases is also reduced due to high-quality air exchange.
Timely termination of root feeding
Despite the fact that long fruiting quickly depletes soil reserves, it is worth abandoning the root method of introducing nutrients by the end of August.
But it is worth leaving the processing on the sheet.
Care procedures
Experienced gardeners note that the pruning procedure has a positive effect on the duration of fruiting. Also, do not forget about the daily introduction of the required amount of moisture.
With the right approach, the harvest can be collected until mid-autumn.
