If you want your neighbors to sigh with envy when they see your cucumber harvest, you need to resort to the help of fertilizers.
The feeding schedule was shared by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
The first time to apply fertilizer to the roots is 10-15 days after planting the seedlings or when the third leaf appears on the plant.
For this purpose, you need to prepare a solution of 10 liters of water and 30 g of ammonium nitrate. After watering, add 2 liters of nutrient mixture per square meter.
When buds appear and at the beginning of flowering, a second root feeding is carried out.
This will require 40-60 g of nitrophoska for the same 10 liters of water. Each plant needs 0.7-1 liter of solution. The fertilizer is also applied after watering.
A solution of 20 g of urea and 10 l of water is suitable for foliar feeding. It is used when there is a lack of nutrition and weak root function.
In addition, such “help” can be used when the weather outside is cloudy for many days.
