Many people want the pumpkin to have excellent taste and also to please the eye with its size.
As it turns out, achieving this is not that difficult.
Landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", believes that some tricks will help to achieve the desired result.
What do they consist of?
The right soil
Some people think that you don't need to try hard to grow pumpkins: the crop will grow on its own without any problems. This is, of course, true, but the taste and size of the crop will be appropriate.
If your goal is to grow large and high-quality pumpkins, then you should first add compost to the soil and do not forget about loosening it.
The water issue
Not everyone knows how to water a pumpkin properly. As a result, the harvest may surprise you in an unpleasant way. As it turns out, this crop needs moisture only in the first month of summer.
There is no need to give water to the pumpkin after that.
Top dressing
Pumpkin does not need a large amount of nutrients, but 2-3 additional feedings should still be carried out. The best options are natural compositions.
For example, pay attention to mullein and ash.
