Many summer residents want to prolong the fruiting period of cucumbers.
Oddly enough, you don't have to try too hard to achieve this result.
After all, there is a super-product that you can simply sprinkle on the soil under your garden crop.
As a result, the cucumber bushes will bear fruit until the frost.
There will be no problems with either the quantity or the quality of the fruits produced.
The owner of a country plot will be able to harvest twice as many cucumbers as usual.
A remedy for getting a double harvest of cucumbers
We are talking about a mixture consisting of two ingredients: garden diatomaceous earth and granulated manure.
The first component is necessary for the plant to acquire protection from dangerous microorganisms, and also to receive important microelements: silicon, magnesium and boron.
The second ingredient is a source of those nutrients without which prolonged fruiting of cucumbers is impossible.
For every one and a half kilos of garden diatomite there should be one kilo of granulated manure.
The resulting mixture should be used to cover the soil directly under the plant.
It is advisable to carry out the procedure at the end of July or after the onset of the final month of summer.
By the way, the good thing about the mixture is that it works gradually: the soil remains in an improved condition for a long time.
