A good root system is of great importance for seedlings.

The presence of strong roots is a guarantee that the young plant will be strong.

But if there are problems with the development of the root system of seedlings, then you should not count on a rich harvest in the future.

However, the situation can be corrected. To do this, you need to feed the plant correctly.

An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh listed the means that guarantee the strengthening of the roots of seedlings.

First feeding

After the first leaf blades appear, the plant needs two important microelements - potassium and phosphorus.

A truly life-saving remedy at this stage will be potassium monophosphate. No more than 10 grams of this powder should be used per bucket of water.

Second feeding

Then the seedlings will need a nitrogen component. The use of ammonium nitrate is welcomed: the ratio of ingredients is the same as in the previous case.

Third feeding

And at the final stage of development, the young plant will need magnesium.

Magnesium sulfate is an excellent choice and should be used in combination with sources of potassium and phosphorus.

Earlier, summer residents were told how to prepare the soil for planting pepper seedlings.
