During the flowering period of the crop, we can relax a little if we see that there are enough flowers.

However, this does not guarantee that each flower will produce a high-quality ovary.

To prevent this problem from arising, it is necessary to feed cucumbers with special compounds in a timely manner, says agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .

What can help to cope with the task

Special watering

It is believed that proper fertilizing, "delivered" directly to the root system, will help to quickly and clearly cope with the problem. As a result, cucumbers will begin to produce strong ovaries quite quickly.

For each liter of water, take half a gram of boric acid. The method gives results quite quickly.

Spraying

This method also relies on the use of the same active substance, but the method of applying the drug and the proportions are slightly different.

It is recommended to take one gram of the product for each liter of liquid and begin processing.
