One of the favorite vegetables among the population is zucchini. You can cook a lot of healthy and dietary dishes from them.
At the same time, growing a large harvest of zucchini or squash is not as difficult as it may seem to an inexperienced gardener. It's all about a few additional fertilizers.
Experienced gardeners revealed the secret of a large harvest and told when and what to feed zucchini with.
First feeding
It is more convenient to start a calendar so as not to get confused with the dates. The first portion of fertilizers is applied 10 days after planting the zucchini.
Young shoots can be fed with mineral or organic additives with an emphasis on nitrogen.
Second feeding
Next time, you need to apply fertilizer at the beginning of the crop's flowering.
We forget about nitrogen until the new summer cottage season and focus on potassium supplements.
These can be ready-made mixtures from the store or folk recipes, for example, ash solution.
Fruiting
At this time, zucchini are no longer fed. Fertilizers are added at will, and this can be urea or superphosphate.
