How to feed cucumbers at the end of July

A gardener who wants to get a rich harvest of cucumbers should add the following agents to a container filled with 10 liters of mullein solution:

  • wood ash (a couple of liter jars);
  • magnesium nitrate (2 tbsp);
  • potassium nitrate (3 tbsp)

The result will be a mixture that needs to be used to water the soil under the garden crop. Each cucumber bush should receive a liter of liquid.

It is advisable to feed the plant immediately after it has been well watered with plain water.
