Strawberries are one of those crops that are unlikely to produce a decent harvest without additional fertilization.
However, the fertilizers must be properly selected and balanced.
Thanks to this, the berry crop will actively develop, clarifies the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", landscape designer and scientist-agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
What fertilizers should be applied to increase strawberry yields
During the growth of green mass
It is necessary to take 500 ml of mullein and dilute the fertilizer in a bucket of water. Then we strengthen the composition with one large spoon of potassium sulfate.
When watering, use four glasses of the prepared product for each bush.
Before flowering
It is recommended to use any specialized fertilizer for berry crops. But that's not all. In order to increase the harvest, it is worth using ash as a top dressing.
Up to two glasses of the product are used per bush.
The flowering period itself
It is worth paying attention to zinc sulfate with a concentration of 0.02%. The composition is used for spraying.
