There are countless folk methods of feeding plants.
For example, it is believed that in order to get an excellent harvest of cucumbers, cucumber beds should be fertilized with baking soda.
To do this, you need to dissolve a tablespoon of baking powder in a bucket of water and water the plantings.
According to supporters of this method, such a remedy leads to the fact that the fruiting period of cucumbers increases, and the number of empty ovaries decreases.
The main thing, according to advisers, is not to overdo it with the dosage.
However, not all gardeners share the same opinion.
The fact is that this additive rather suppresses plant growth than serves as an aid to their growth, and it does much more harm than good.
The reason lies in the composition of soda, which includes sodium and carbonic acid ion, or NaHCO3. Excess sodium (Na) will certainly not benefit plants, and HCO3 can even kill them.
