The best June fertilizers for grapes

During the first month of summer, the crop needs nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus components.

Therefore, it is advisable to use several fertilizers.

Ammonium nitrate can be “responsible” for nitrogen and potassium.

Another good source of nitrogen for grapes is urea (15 grams per bucket of water).

As for phosphorus, the plant can get it thanks to superphosphate (40 grams per square meter).

It is also advisable to add fertilizers that are a source of boron and zinc.

First, the grapes need to be fed before flowering. Once this process is complete, the procedure should be repeated, but without focusing on nitrogen.
