If a person has spent money on installing a greenhouse, he clearly expects that his efforts and investments will pay off.
It is believed that greenhouse conditions are the easiest way to grow a decent harvest of any vegetables.
Cucumbers are often grown in greenhouses, as it is much easier to provide them with comfortable conditions, notes the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What are the main reasons?
You forgot to take into account the varietal characteristics of the plant
Before choosing seeds for making seedlings, it is extremely important to consider all the features of a particular variety. There are a number of varieties of cucumbers that are more prone to bitterness than others.
You shouldn't buy such cucumbers if you want to be sure of the quality of your harvest.
Soil
When growing cucumbers in a greenhouse, the gardener has a tangible advantage: the soil can be made as nutritious and fertile as possible.
However, there are a few important points to know.
Clay and dense soil are not suitable for cucumbers. Also, do not add fresh manure to the mixture. But humus will be an excellent option.
Moisture
One of the main factors that influences taste is water. If there is too much or not enough of it, the quality of cucumbers will noticeably deteriorate.
The problem of bitterness also often arises.
