Cucumbers are a very “delicate” crop that requires a special approach when growing.

One of the key points is choosing a place for planting. In this regard, many are interested in: is it possible to grow cucumbers after cucumbers.

An expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh drew attention to the following pattern.

The fact is that plants growing in the same place draw more and more nutrients from the soil.

This leads to a gradual depletion of the soil with the appearance of more pathogenic bacteria each new season.

The latter are the direct cause of diseases of subsequent plants.

Cucumbers, being extremely “greedy” for nutrients in the soil, leave no chance for “followers” to have a good harvest.

Cucumbers can be “registered” in the same place only if there is no other place.

In this case, you should carry out constant, abundant feeding.
