Vegetables need to be fed, but it is important to focus on the variety. Fertilizers can be applied 2-3 weeks before harvesting.
It is advisable to apply foliar feeding at the beginning of August.
This can be potassium monophosphate (10 g per 10 l of water), potassium sulfate or potassium magnesium sulfate.
Also, on the leaf, you can and should feed the root crops with any micronutrient fertilizer that contains boron, zinc, iron, manganese, etc. At the beginning or middle of the growing season, boron will not be superfluous, but the solution should be weak.
If no fertilizing was done at all, then it is much better to treat the beets with complex fertilizer on the leaves.
In this case, for a 10-liter bucket of water, it will be enough to take 1-2 grams of the product.
If signs of deficiency are noticed, then at the beginning of August you can make a solution of 2-5 grams of the preparation per 10 liters of clean water.
Another important thing is watering. In early August it can be moderate, with rare and intensive watering the shape of the fruits will be deformed.
Water consumption rates depend on soil and temperatures. Watering frequency is once a week 2-3 weeks before harvesting.
