Some cucumbers start to "go away" as early as August, making it clear that they are no longer going to bear fruit.
In others, fruiting continues actively until the first frosts.
The thing is that experienced gardeners know one golden rule very well: in August, cucumbers must be fed without fail. If this is not done, the vegetable crop will simply not have enough nutrition to continue bearing fruit.
What can you "treat" cucumbers with in August?
Nutrient mixture
The proposed combination will be an excellent solution for providing "support" to cucumbers. It is recommended to make a special mixture that will be useful for vegetables.
To do this, take one spoon of superphosphate (double) and twice as much urea with potassium sulfate per ten liters of water.
The mixture is used for root feeding.
For sheet processing
If you see that cucumbers also need to be treated on the leaf, then you should pay attention to urea. To do this, you need to take only a matchbox of fertilizer per bucket of water.
Thanks to these two simple fertilizers, cucumbers will bear fruit for a very long time and actively.
