What tricks do you need to know?
Always remember about diseases
Most often, we lose cucumber harvests due to diseases. Therefore, it is important to follow a full range of preventive measures to prevent cucumbers from becoming infected with powdery mildew or anthracnose.
Harvesting
If cucumbers are not removed from the garden bed for a long time, this weakens the entire plant. Therefore, try to remove the fruits in a timely manner.
Proper watering
In early and mid-summer, cucumbers do not need help to prolong fruiting. Active changes are required only in August. For example, it is important to water only at dawn. The water should be warm.
Shelter
To prevent the plant from experiencing stress, cucumbers need to be covered in the evening, as nights become increasingly cold towards the end of summer.
