Without sufficient water, normal growth of cucumbers is impossible.
Moisture deficiency is one of the most common reasons for the decline in yield of a popular garden crop.
Summer residents, taught by bitter experience, water cucumbers regularly and generously.
In doing so, they use warm water, realizing that liquid at a low temperature can cause serious harm to the plant.
But there is one important point that even many experienced summer residents forget about.
It turns out that after the watering procedure is completed, there is something that needs to be done.
An expert from the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh reminded us of this important action.
It is necessary to loosen the soil under the plant. To do this, you need to use a hoe.
In addition, it is advisable to cover the beds with mulching material. The ideal option is straw. At least a six-meter layer should appear.
By loosening the soil, the owner of a country plot will bring great benefit to the garden crop. The fact is that the plant roots will receive more oxygen and will be able to absorb more useful microelements and compounds.
