- Sour cream 1 tablespoon;
- Natural honey 1 tablespoon;
- Warm water 1 liter.
Preparation of cucumber elixir:
- Add sour cream and honey to the sour milk and mix well.
- Pour warm, non-running water into this mixture. This can be rainwater, well water or spring water.
- Fill plastic or glass containers with this solution, cover with lids and transfer to a dark and warm place.
- Let it stand for a few hours and dilute with water in a ratio of 1:5.
- Pour 2 tablespoons of this elixir into a 10-liter bucket of settled water.
Application
Water the leaves and soil at the roots of plants with this elixir.
Timing of fertilizing
The best time is considered to be before 10 am. During this period of the day, cucumbers have time to absorb useful microelements. It is not advisable to carry out such feeding in the evening, because the cucumber leaves will not have time to absorb moisture and will remain wet throughout the night.
