Who doesn't love fresh and juicy strawberries? Many people really like the taste of this berry. Every summer resident who plants this crop on his plot dreams of getting a large and sweet harvest.
But it happens that desires do not always coincide with reality. To get really high-quality fruits, you need to make an effort.
Experienced gardeners recommend paying attention to fertilizing, as the yield depends on it.
How to feed strawberries
Fertilizers should also be used when planting. It is advisable to give preference to compost or humus, as well as ash.
About 800 grams of fertilizer should be placed in each hole.
If planting is planned for summer, then bird droppings and rotted manure are excellent fertilizers.
An excellent way to feed strawberries is to use mineral fertilizers. You can use potassium sulfate, 25 grams will be enough.
Autumn is also suitable for planting strawberries. It is better to use natural fertilizers here. For example, you can mix compost or humus with the soil. If you want to use mineral fertilizers, you need to take 30 grams of superphosphate and 10 grams of potassium chloride for each square meter of the bed.
In addition, when planting in the fall, it is advisable to remember about drainage from gravel and sand to avoid excess moisture.
