To get a large harvest of strawberries, it is necessary to feed them with certain fertilizers.
One of the best spring fertilizers for strawberries is ordinary wood ash.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist and landscape designer, tells how to properly feed strawberries with ash.
How to feed strawberries with ash
You can simply scatter ash over the bed. You need 150 grams of ash (one and a half cups) per square meter of soil.
If the strawberries were planted recently, the bushes are small and located far from each other, add two tablespoons of ash under each bush.
It is advisable to bury the ash in the soil so that it is not blown away by the wind. Or you can loosen the soil, add fertilizer and water.
When using ash, it is important to remember that it is not compatible with ammonia nitrogen and superphosphate.
