If you feed carrots correctly from the very beginning of the season, they will grow high-quality, tasty and beautiful.
Therefore, it is worth not missing this important and responsible moment.
As a rule, people start thinking about the first application of nutrients at the moment when the first two true leaves appear, suggests Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer.
What should be the first feeding of carrots?
As mentioned above, it is worth waiting for the first true leaves to appear. At this point, it is also recommended to thin out the plants.
After that, we prepare green fertilizer according to any recipe. Let us remind you that the main ingredient is weeds.
After it has steeped, take one part of the concentrate and dilute it in five parts of water.
You also need to strengthen the composition with potassium sulfate: two spoons will be quite enough. Mix the components well and apply the fertilizer.
When the carrot has five leaves, you should choose any suitable complex fertilizer and prepare it according to the instructions.
Afterwards, all that remains is to add ash. Mix 200 ml of fertilizer with 10 liters of water and wait 24 hours.
