It is best to plant this vegetable crop in humus or a manure bed. In this case, you can save energy on applying fertilizers later.
If it was not possible to plant cucumbers in this way, then in July, when the cucumbers are already producing their first harvest, you can use organic matter.
Compost, humus or humus will do. But it is not worth adding such substances too often.
It is enough to add the components once every three weeks.
Complex mineral products with nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus are also relevant, which have a positive effect on plant development. You can treat shoots with a weak solution.
It would not be a bad idea to add ash after abundant watering of cucumbers.
In this case, it will be enough to pour only 1-2 spoons of ash under each bush after burning grass or wood. Summer residents also recommend applying such fertilizer to the leaves themselves. Such a simple manipulation will drive away pests, improve crop yields, and strengthen the roots.
An ash-based infusion is suitable, which is prepared from a liter of ash and 10 liters of water.
The product should be left to infuse for 24 hours before use. You will need 500 ml of liquid for each bush.
