The second month is quite difficult for summer residents, as the beds require increased attention.
It is necessary not only to harvest, but also to do all the necessary routine chores.
Unfortunately, we often forget about carrots, which continue to grow actively.
July is the month when carrots begin to form tops and leaves. For this reason, it is necessary to take care of their nutrition.
To do this, add fertilizer to the carrots’ diet, but do not overdo it with fertilizers so that they do not grow too large.
First of all, add a phosphorus-potassium composition and reduce nitrogen to a minimum or eliminate it altogether.
Feed with potassium nitrate or superphosphate.
A universal folk remedy is ash, which is suitable not only for carrots, but also for other vegetables. Some also add salt, but you need to be extremely careful with it - 1 tablespoon per bucket of water.
And the last component is boric acid, which will add sweetness and juice to the carrots.
