Any experienced gardener knows that cucumbers need to be properly cared for during the period of active fruiting in order to extend the harvest time as much as possible.
Responsible gardeners produce excellent cucumber harvests right up until the cold weather.
Therefore, it is necessary to know what to water the vegetables with at this important moment, says landscape designer and agricultural scientist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti.
What can be used
Sources of Potassium
At the moment when cucumbers actively "share" the harvest, they need potassium in a fairly large amount. The easiest way to saturate plants with the substance is with ash.
You can prepare a fairly simple solution.
To do this, take 200 ml of ash per bucket of water and water without infusion. You can also use potassium nitrate. The composition should be diluted according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Yeast
Many gardeners have noticed that yeast feeding during the fruiting process gives amazing results. One hundred grams of the main product is combined with the same amount of sugar in half a bucket of warm water.
In just a couple of hours the product will be ready for use.
