Many summer residents do not understand why they cannot grow large, juicy and tasty strawberries.
The berries turn out to be small and too sour, despite the addition of all the necessary fertilizers during the flowering period and the very beginning of fruit formation.
If you find yourself in the same situation, then remember: do you feed the plant when it bears fruit?
If the procedure is not carried out, then the reason for the low quality of the harvest is clear: at the right time, the crop does not receive the compounds and microelements that are important for it.
In other words, fertilizer should be applied during fruiting as well. This is the secret of the large size and incredible sweetness of garden strawberry fruits.
How to feed strawberries during the fruiting period
Now it’s worth telling about that very secret feeding that guarantees the formation of large and tasty berries on strawberry bushes.
It is important to emphasize that at this time you should use natural fertilizer.
The use of "chemicals" can cause dangerous compounds to appear in the fruits.
But nettle infusion is a great option. This remedy will not only replenish the deficiency of useful components in the soil, but will also not cause any harm to the plant.
You need to put the collected nettle mass into a bucket. The greenery should reach the edges of the container. The remaining cavities should be filled with clean liquid.
After three days, the remedy will be ready. Next, you should water the strawberry bushes at the root. Each plant should receive a liter of infusion.
