In order to continue enjoying the cucumber harvest, it is important to ensure that they do not lack nutrients in a timely manner.

In mid-August, fertilizers are applied so that cucumbers can bear fruit before the cold weather sets in.

Thanks to this, the harvest will be very impressive and high-quality, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist and landscape designer.

What should you feed your plants with?

Some people introduce industrial complexes in mid-August, as in some cases it is really justified. If you notice that the culture is exhausted, then this is what you should do.

If the vegetables look generally normal, then it is worth trying one interesting feeding method.

To do this, take half a bucket of water and warm it in the sun. After that, add about three spoons of natural honey to the liquid. Make sure that the product can dissolve.

Next, water the cucumbers and pour two glasses of the prepared "sweet treat" under each bush. The quality of the harvest will pleasantly surprise you.
