In order to feed the cucumbers growing on the “six hundred square meters”, of course, you can use a store-bought composition.

But what to do if you don’t have the opportunity to visit a store called “Everything for the Country House”?

The answer is simple: create your own nutritional composition.

To do this, you will need, first of all, one tablespoon of ammonium nitrate. You can replace it with 3 tablespoons of ammonia.

Both saltpeter and ammonia will provide plants with easily assimilable nitrogen.

The next components that future greens need are potassium and calcium.

They are contained in a bread-ash solution, for the preparation of which you need to pour 5 liters of boiling water over a loaf of bread and add 1 glass of wood ash. After the product has cooled and the bulk of the components have settled to the bottom, do not forget to strain it.

In addition, provide the cucumbers with boron - 2-3 g (less than a teaspoon) is enough, which should first be diluted in a small amount of hot water.

Mix everything well in 10 liters of water and use for watering. Under each bush - 1 liter.
