Even if the cucumbers look attractive and the harvest as a whole can be called successful, the taste of the vegetables will play an important role.

If cucumbers are tasteless, then it is extremely difficult to eat them or use them for winter preparations.

In order to avoid such unpleasant consequences, the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh advises to avoid three common mistakes.

What do they consist of?

Soil quality

If you know that the quality of the soil leaves much to be desired, then from the end of the season you need to start enriching the soil. Not everyone knows that the taste of cucumbers largely depends on the soil.

Hot weather

Surely, at least once in your life you had to taste cucumbers with a distinct bitter taste. This is not the most pleasant situation.

It is worth remembering that the unpleasant bitter taste occurs because you were unable to provide the cucumbers with adequate shelter in hot weather.

Water

In order for vegetables to have pleasant taste qualities, they need to be "treated" with water in a timely manner. It is also important to remember that cold liquid is not used for watering.

Warm the water directly under the sun and start adding moisture.
