After this, cucumbers will begin to ripen five times faster: how to properly pick cucumbers from branches
Many summer residents complain about the following problem: the fruits, located quite high on the cucumber bush, are small in size.
At the same time, the lower cucumbers are formed quite large.
Why does this happen? The answer is simple: it is due to uneven distribution of nutrients.
The compounds important for garden crops "go" from the bottom up. A significant part of them goes to the lower fruits. And the upper fruits "starve".
Fortunately, the situation can be corrected. It is quite possible to achieve accelerated ripening of the upper cucumbers.
To do this, you need to pick the lower fruits correctly. An important dacha life hack was shared by the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
How to pick fruits from cucumber bushes
It is necessary to pick already formed cucumbers in such a way that no harm is caused to the garden crop.
The first thing you need to do is to firmly grasp the fetus with your hand.
The second action is pressing the tail with your thumb.
This method promotes careful picking of the fruit and the correct direction of nutrients: the compounds go to those cucumbers that are located higher.
As a result, the formation of these fruits does not stop. On the contrary, the process accelerates. And often by 5 times at once.
