The proportion of water in cucumbers reaches 95-98%, depending on the variety and growing conditions.
This means that the plant vitally needs regular watering. Without water, cucumbers will be among the first in the garden to wither and die.
But it is important to take into account one nuance. This important point will protect cucumbers from serious consequences and save the harvest.
Watering Rule
The yield of greenhouse cucumbers depends on a number of factors. But often gardeners themselves destroy this crop without even knowing it.
Many summer residents water in the evenings. But it is worth considering the weather conditions. For example, if the vines are wet at night, this can provoke the development of diseases.
It is especially dangerous if the temperature drops sharply, as often happens in May and June.
When is the best time to water?
Experienced gardeners recommend watering cucumbers in the morning. The plants will receive the necessary moisture, and the soil and greenhouse will be aired until the evening and the air temperature drops.
If watering is carried out in the evening, then the greenhouse is then ventilated for 2-3 hours.
