When and how to feed beets with ash

Ash application begins in June; before that, nitrogen fertilizers are used, for example, ammonium nitrate (20 grams of fertilizer per 10 liters of water).

Ash must be sifted before use. Then simply scatter the fertilizer around the plants and between the rows.

After that, we loosen the soil shallowly and water it with warm water from a watering can. Two glasses of ash are needed per linear meter.
