Now is the time to start paying more attention to pumpkin.
If everything is done correctly, the fruits will grow sweet, juicy, tasty and large.
Also, correctly selected fertilizers increase the storage life of pumpkins.
What nutrient application options to consider in late August
Dandelions with nettles
If this option is definitely not suitable for other plants at the end of August, then for pumpkins it is a great choice. It is recommended to collect about half a bucket of the specified plants and chop them with a shovel.
You can use nettles with dandelions together with the root system. Then pour in a bucket of water and wait for about 14 days.
Next, filter the resulting composition. For one liter of concentrate, take 10 liters of water. Before adding the fertilizer, you can add a glass of sifted ash to the composition.
Industrial complexes
In order for the pumpkin to grow perfectly, mineral fertilizers are also necessary. It is worth paying attention to the classics: superphosphate and potassium sulfate.
Fertilizers are applied separately, but the scheme will be the same.
It is customary to take one large spoon of fertilizer per 10 liters of water.
